Brass watches… who’s got ‘em
Does anybody have a brass watch? I have a Raven Defender with a brass case(on top) and the color is significantly different than my other bronze watches.

I have been collecting watches for at least a decade. It is amazing how quickly things have changed in this timeframe. Like many here, I wish I would have done a few things differently like buying a R...

Had the Oris 65 with bronze bezel (not the full bronze). I really like the patina on brass and bronze, but it's not something I really look for in watches.
When you strip the chrome away from some of my vintage one I get to the brass, does that count?
I would like them without the inevitable green sulphates.

ha!! not technically. That was not designed to be brass-forward. The ones I am asking about were milled out of brass on purpose. But it is interesting to see the chromeless watch... Looks kinda cool

I have a tinge of green on the brass case, but no pockets of green gunk. I agree, that is not appealing.

Considering gold is so flashy, it is kind of a way to get a warm golden tone without attention. I would love the Tudor bronze... but have you seen the aftermarket prices on the boutique only BB 58?!
