Not sure if your statements are accurate.

1. The AmEx Plat is not solid metal. The only solid metal card I know of is the Chase Ritz Carlton card. It has been discontinued.
2. The AmEx Rose Gold card is made the same way the metal AmEx Plat is made. I do not have the Yellow Gold metal card, so I can't compare
3. The Chase CSR card is sandwiched. My original card has peeled and I had it replaced. Its quality is inferior to some of the other Chase metal cards, including Marriott cards.
