Here is an interesting collection of actual old watch papers - these were found inside the backs of old watches.
Each describes the content of the metal the case is made of - gold filled.
Each carries a guarantee of how long the case would wear before the plate wore through.
Reportedly this system of guarantees was outlawed by an act of the US Congress, after which time gold filled metals had to be listed as something more precise, like "14K gold filled"
