Bought for Scrap

A life-long friend of mine bought this watch for scrap. As little as I know about vintage Rolexes, he knows less. The biggest question I have is how can one tell if a Rolex was factory gem-set? The diamond bezel appears to be white gold and I do recall reading somewhere that was an option as the white gold better highlights the brilliance of diamonds.

Any additional direction is appreciated!
