Is it permissible to wear a gold-colored watch, the plating of which is unknown as to whether it is gold-plated or not, and its value is 60 dirhams?

The stated price of the watch indicates that it does not contain gold, because half a gram of gold is more expensive than the amount mentioned. It is better to err on the side of caution and let one of the women wear the watch. "Leave that which makes you doubt for that which does not make you doubt." Jewelers and gold dealers can be consulted to distinguish between gold plating and a normal color.
