I went through a phase of diggin' the patina, aka rust, that was exclusive to bronze or brass pieces. The first pair remain in the box at this stage.
The last one is no longer on board.

Helberg CH6 (a swine to photogragh with that big old domed crystal but built like a tank) !

Armida A1

Armida A8

none yet, but i think the archimedes 39 pilot will be my next pilot watch (replacing the maratac mid).

None and no plan to ever buy one.

Had the Helberg, great watch but too big for me.

Would consider the Aquadive BS100 and my favorite bronze watch:

Absolutely. Bronze is beautiful.

The Kazimon is probably the only one that ever appealed to me, otherwise I have never understood the draw of Bronze.

You still got this one, Art? Always liked your patina work. Makes me want one

I love the look of bronze, especially with a nice patina, but don't have any.

Two for now.

This bronze Tuna mod is leaving soon.

This one I'm not sure about staying or going yet

I'd grab a bronze green dial CH8 like this one if I could get a killer preowned deal

^^^I think Shorty's has a green dial he was selling

I don't think I will ever get one as I've yet to see one that I really like.

Thanks. We were in St Thomas over Christmas on a cruise, and just finished doing the underwater mopeds, and we had about a hour of free time to snorkel.

The Kamizon, which I wish I had held on to:

and this: (Which in addition to being a bad ass piece has the most DWC of all DWC DNA)

Oh, and a piece of brass for a beater:
