Thanks Danny. It's forced but I'm impatient

Agreed, the patina on the Helson is nice.

And so it did...new from HK today. Going to be perfect on a salt water fishing trip next month...going to let it get gnarly

Art, which method did you use? I am guessing liver of sulpher gel?

For those who have different brands, which do you dig more? I'm loving this look.

Got this one yesterday...we'll see. Wears pretty good and certainly a fair price

Dammit, Helson. Why did you have to be so damn sexy.

And they are on vacation too.

I'm hoping that after a week on the water it looks like this: (google image)

It will and it will be rubbing off on your clothes and flaking off in your coffee

Do you think I'd be safer with a kick ass rough canvas Strap for it? (Hint hint)

Great lume and built like a brick shit house, but huge

You got it. I'll even send some LOS gel for the patina

If I had to do it all over again I'd get Paul's 500m version. Mine is the largest watch I have. 45mm but the lugs are straight out.
