Icon12 white gold made of??

I love my SS/WG DJ, however, I started to notice I would experience a little red rush if I wear it while sweating. So, I think I am alergic to SS. My new resolution is to get myself a Rolex that I can wear without concern. What is the Rolex white gold made of? does it contain same nickle that can cause rash?


please help.

This is a good chart. If the platinum, or palladium is used, you shouldn't have an issue. With white gold rings, we plate them with Rhodium when someone is allergic. You may need to let your skin air out, or loosen the links to allow for cirvulation. My metal bracelets bother me in the heat too. I normally switch to a NATO during the summer, but you can't do that with a DJ. Good luck
