Yeah,I think the gen colour suits it really well & that's the colour/style that I'm on the hunt for,
I've just deep cleaned mine for the first time so I can try different patina experiments,

Can you share some day light photos of your XF V2 beauty after you clean it
Any type of acid will remove the patina from the Bronzo as well since it also has a bronze case. If tomato ketchup ain't your thing, you can try lemon juice mixed with an equal part of water (at least that's what I tried). The problem with ketchup is that it's too thick and some of it may remain inside any crevices (a friend tried it on his Bronzo and he did not notice the ketchup until he went swimming, he freaked when he saw "blood" coming out from the watch).

That a nice hell of a story "mysterious" the blood coming out of the watch [emoji1][emoji1]
Yeah, he was only swimming in the pool when he saw it so he was thinking where he cut himself. Probably if it were in the sea, he would think he cut his hand on a piece of coral so he wouldn't be bothered by it. Hahaha

I was going to try the tomato sauce but I didn't like the idea of having to wash it off in warm water.
Has any members had any experience of XF watches & getting them wet/wearing then in or near water?

Your welcome brother,thanks for the kind words.Its the XF V2,
Im like you,I do like the clean bronzo look too,I'm going to see what the patina is like & if I'm not happy with it then I'm going to polish it again then seal it with a wax which should slow the patina process down & keep it looking "new" longer
I haven't got the 382 yet but I'm definitely thinking about buying one,It's always been a favourite of mine

Well now that they've put a better looking movement on the VSF Bronzo, you have no more excuse not to get one.
Do check for the slim crown in case you forget.

I've just looked & I can get a VSF 382 delivered for around $400,absolutely stunning watch
I might have to leave it till next month though as my Mrs might end up stabbing me
I still wonder about the case.
The ZF seems to be 15.6mm thick and the V6/XF is 16.5mm.
How thick is the gen?

Where did you get the measurements? I saw 15.5 for both factory versions.

Ah from Puretime.
