Hi...I'm not a watch expert, but in my experience, numbers such as 73069d are usually serial numbers. The best way to tell the difference is, of course, by testing either by acid or electronic tester. If you are not able to do these tests on your own, a jeweler will usually be happy to do the testing for you if they have the time. Also, white gold is much softer than platinum. If your item is easily scratched; on a place that is normally not seen; it's probably gold. Finally, there is ahe heat test. If you are able to carefully heat your item to red-hot then let it cool, you can tell by how it looks which it is. If it is dark and dirty looking (no worries, it cleans off) it is whit gold. If it is still bright and shiny, then it is a platinum metal. Good Luck!
