does work. looks good.
I remember seeing one of those hanging up in a bike shop long ago. Unsurprisingly I havent seen one since.
Presumably all the better R dealers were allocated one to flog ?

Good price.

Is that Superchrome a la Super Tuff burner, or Chromovelato as the continentals like to call it?

Proper gold plate if memory serves

real gold. probably not all that much of it.

They were plated with real gold albeit a very thin layer over chrome. I had a few frames gold plated in the late 70's and it wasn't anything like as expensive as you might imagine but a top finish needs a lot of experience.
