My first attempt at bronze patina

When life gives you lemons, make lemonade and clean up your bronze watch :)

Quick dip in the pool of liver of sulfur

Then I was curious to see how it looked, and I tossed it in some baking soda and water

I want to experiment some more :) I am going to the beach soon and can't wait to see what the ocean does to it!!!

That patina goes nicely with the blue. Good job. Makes me regret selling mine.

Christopher Ward C60 Trident Bronze Pro 600. That’s quite a mouthful for a name, but does not disappoint for excellent quality.

Pristine:

Thoroughly abused and bunded:

That's a real beauty, is this a gen?

Are there any 40-42mm bronze watches out there rep or gen? I loved my 382, but man that thing was just too crazy bulky and heavy..

There’s plenty of microbrands out there to suit all preferences. Check out Nethuns Scuba 500 (41mm) http://www.nethunswatch.com/collection/NETHUNSSCUBA500BRONZE/SB511

Another great choice is Zelos Helmsman 2. https://zeloswatches.com/products/helmsman2?variant=8886115237977
It’s 42mm, but because I prefer bigger bronze, I added a bund strap to mine to give that illusion.

If you can go lower than 40mm, Christopher Ward has one in 38 mm. Or if higher than 42 mm, there’s a 43 mm version too. https://www.christopherward.com/c60-trident-bronze-pro-600-range
I got a 43 mm and..... yep... added bund. :D
