Don't know that one but the Tudor pelagos is a really nice looking watch,
It's only 42mm but they reckon it's really close to gen

The tudor blue bronze is this one below:

Since I got mine 671, all of other watches I have ATM (gen and rep) get 0 wrist time.
I need to get some water-friendly strap. Any recommendations for nice rubber strap ?

I cleaned the 671 with ketchup to have a rose gold tone so the patina can develop in this base
The 382 I cleaned with lemon and vinegar, so it could be more yellow gold tone.

Both were submerged (no rubbing), cleaned with water and soap and dryed.

Now just let them get a good patina!

I've been debating on pulling the trigger on one of these two.

Any thoughts on which one i should get? I can't figure out what makes the $100 difference.

The V6 you linked is the very first version v1. The most current version is v3, which costs pretty much the same as the ZF v2 in your link. Both current versions of V6 and ZF have the alloy contents (especially aluminum) much closer to gen than previous versions.

So, the ZF would be closer to gen?

Really amazing pieces @replikmaster congratulations for having both

Did you used equivalent amount of lemon & vinegar or what was the percentage of each of them and did you add water to the mixture

Did you use soap before on your Bronzo to clean it & do you think it will have effect on the patina developing

Please share the development of the patina on both

Enjoy them both & wear them with health fella

I agree with the ketchup method giving the watch a more rose gold.Mine did exactly the same
How long did you leave the ketchup on for pal?
