Yes, this is a Limited edition.
I believe it was named Kasparov, after the Russian chess champion, if my memory serves me well.
I can’t recall how many were made, but most were sold on strap and all in precious metal.
Then you have a problem
This one could be a Franken dial from a WG put into a steel case. Unless the buyer is clear about what he sells, maybe look elsewhere
I have been tempted many times as well.
But...polishing gold is a totally different story to polishing steel, due to the rhodium layer. Assuming this would not be an issue, it is a superb watch. All the best, Alex
The square indices indicate that it's white gold.
The date placement indicates it's a 39mm diameter case, long discontinued (newer models are 41mm, I believe). M4
Technically the square indices indicate precious metal, since this model came in WG, YG and RG variants.
They also did a limited edition variant in platinum and steel, which has the square indices.

I did it. Price was too good to be true and I have been working on my upgrades with this guy for my collection of 1. He lets me trade and pay the difference.
It looks like the full WG and I didn't pay that much. thx guys
White Gold
This is white gold face,39mm,usually with black or brown leather strap with white gold foldover buckle. I have one,exchanged the leather strap for brown rubber great. Nice watch,not anymore in production.
Looks like a 26022BC with aftermarket bracelet
I have this model, but with the original factory strap in black. Great watch with a nice solid and weighty feel.
