another bronze

Post by aztecknight » Tue Jul 29, 2014 7:17 pm

Fresh off the USPS box. Not much time on the wrist yet. Quick thoughts are that the I like this bronze, I can only compare it to the Halios I had and I like this one much better. I believe this is CuSn8 versus the aluminum mix that Halios used. I can already see the patina taking hold. Not sure what I think of patina.

Straps are great, buckles are ridiculously huge, though on my big fat wrist, they look okay. I like the domed sapphire, but it makes it hard to take pictures without glare. Everything is copper but the caseback, also a nice difference from the Halios. 9015 movement is solid for this pricepoint. So far so good.

Very nice. I've yet to buy a bronze watch, but yours is certainly inspiring.

These are really too good Azteck ! ..Congratulations on this !!! :clap:
Great hearing how the different bronze finishes are evidently
so different like you are saying. Think it really is amazing, and
cool.

This is one of those watches that will be turning heads, and
has to be just THE best to look down at the time on. Hope
that you really enjoy sir !

Very nice! Congrats!
