soooo its been few weeks since everyone's received their bronzo. I'm just curious to how your patinas going.

post your a current shot of your bronzo and include any treatments you have applied to speed up the process!
please refrain from nit picking at faults as this is simply a thread to share my passion for a watch i love with fellow members :rolleyes:

sorry for crappy iphone photos

this is all natural. not much yet but no rush hehe

Great looking Shoo, since you live off the coast, it is easy for you to scoop up sea water, the rest will have to find a way to get some. ............ oops, idea ! the local pet store in your neighborhood, pay them a visit often, and start swishing the 'Bronzo' into the salt water fish aquariums !! Nice fishy, fishy, fishy !! Swish, swish !! Looks good Shoo ! :thumbsup:

Not mine, but some inspiration to others. :)

Apparently patina achieved by diving in salt water for 10 days!

I don't want it to look like it sat in the Titanic for a decade. I'll see how it looks in the morning. I'll dunk it back in.

Just be little careful and wear protective eyewear and rubber gloves if doing the 'Patina effects" on that website source. http://www.sciencecompany.com/Patina-Formulas-for-Brass-Bronze-and-Copper-W160.aspx#30 some of that stuff is highly caustic !! .............. always test on copper pennys or an old disgarded garden faucet first before any attempts on your watch. Some green Bronzos might turn up here in a short time !!
