Just when you think they can’t lighten-up anything else, they come up with a way to thin gold. I guess when you can’t work smart and create something good, you create a new way to steal, instead.

Which, by their patents and new techniques, they did

You aren't paying attention. Who said anything about "steal" anything. This is an engineering question. How do you make a watch affordable and still make it out of 18K gold? It will still be 18K gold. . . 75% gold, 25% some other material. This isn't about thinning gold. It's about making it stronger, harder, and lighter. That will keep the cost down, making the AppleWatch more affordable for more people.

The Chinese are selling 9K gold as their approach. It's only 3/8ths real gold.
