No, Lange's white gold is not coated or plated.
Rhodium-plated white gold was more common years ago. Lange never did that, though. They always used white gold with a high enough palladium content such that it didn't need plating.

I’m only referring to the maintenance factor for white gold. The rhodium coating makes things difficult if I do something stupid and damage the casing. But you’re right that the copper dial goes perfectly with a silver case. The blue from the sun/moon con...

Much appreciated.
Definitely loving the dial color. Copper/salmon is pretty striking.
As a rose gold lover...
...on that combo, the WG makes it more elegantly understated. Plus diversity within a collection is always a move forward. 👍
Sometimes you have to compromise
This time I guess it was easy. Congratulations on a good choice.
First and foremost you have selected a most beautiful time peace 
Congratulations and wear it in the best of health. Tell me about the concerns you have regarding white gold. I have two ALS models in white gold. I know Rolex claims that their white gold models through a special process or uniform and color throughout th...
It's a beautiful watch. Great color dial, especially.
Congratulations! Enjoy it in good health.
You've done yourself a great favor landing a specimen such as this Lange!
Wear in good health and please, share more pics of it with us. 🙏👍
Thanks to everyone!
I’d been hoping for an opportunity to get one of these for a long time now and I’ll definitely have photos of it on my next few trips.
Heartiest congratulations!
It's so easy to fall in love with this one.... A spectacular work of art, and the color combination is brilliantly executed.
