Forced Patina on Bronze Watches: A How To
Bronze watches are increasing in popularity by the day; a trend we are wholeheartedly supporters of. Bronze watches (sometimes brass, and of varying alloys) integrate really well into a watch collection. Usually of the tool watch variety, the warm metal hints at gold, but has a toughness to it that is altogether unique. For a few great examples of bronze watches, check out our reviews of the Archimede Pilot, Halios Tropik B, Ancon Tank, Maranez Layan and our look at the Makara Octopus Prototype.Part of what makes the metal so unique, and popular, is that it patinas over time.

Patek 5067A (Women's)
Hi all,Can one of you help me out-what's the new retail (post reduction) of the 5067A?Thanks as always!

In the past, have the more experienced members on the forum seen prices for certain Rolex models go up drastically like they have for the LV? If so, have you seen these prices come down in the future? I ask because I love the look the of the LV, and want to purchase one. However, they are all above MSRP. I am wondering if the members on the forum have seen prices go up before and then eventually come back down, or do these generally tend to stay up. I appreciate any advice.
