Help with Omega 1342 Quartz

[Alaskamick]

Can anyone help me with this watch which I recently acquired?

It's an Omega Seamaster Quartz Cal 1342.

I'm trying to find out what the yellow metal is. The links and the rope pattern Bezel.

Are they Brass or did Omega always use gold?

Thanks for any help you can give me.

Hi Mick   If its not hall marked on every gold link the yellow metal will be plated gold have a look at the wear points to see if there is any base metal showing like copper colour.
