Thoughts on Bronze watches under $1000 US dollars?
I absolutely love idea of the bronze watch, but I can't seem to narrow down a pick for myself I'm looking for something vintage looking for even modern looking with great bronze Vibes. Please leave a comment I'd love to discuss ideas! This is helping decide my first bronze watch ever so make let's make it interesting 😎⌚️
Cheers, Brian

“Ever bronze” if it exists ever on cheaper watches would be the only way I would get a bronze watch ( self confessed OCD pd ) I detest verdigris on anything. Make sure you don’t suffer skin conditions from this material first !

there is also the limited edition that I personaly prefer. ot cost the same price.
Lots of good Glycines in bronze, all for about $500 or less on Ashford.com. I have a Combat Sub that looks great.
Christopher Ward do several models in bronze but might be slightly over 1000 USD. For the money I would 100% go with the Hamilton Field Mechanical in bronze. Man, that's just a great watch that punches WAY above it's weight class...
If you want to try bronze before you take a deeper dive, then the Boderry Sea Turtle is a good choice. I have one and it is beautiful - and very affordable. If you k ow you really want bronze, then the Hamilton or Glycine are good entry pieces.
Customizable Dekla comes in just around 1k
Easy answer is San Martin if you just want to try bronze and we'll under $500. Here's my custom 62MAS
Currently have a bronze Seagull 1963 in the mail, C$280...
You can get these things made in any case size, case material, and crystal. I think it looks really good in pictures with bronze and domed acrylic, but we'll see when it actually gets here.

Yeah I have to say the Glycine is starting to look like a very good option

Very cool. I've seen that one for quite sometime I just never pulled the trigger on it but for the price I love it.

That is a nice one ! I will do more research on that one for sure
Most certainly agree, the only problem is they aren't readily available here in the US where I am:(

Glycine Combat Sub on a fabric. 9 months of patina

No, came exactly how I ordered it
I think give phoibos a look if you like bright shiny dials and designs with a 70s ish aesthetic.
