If you are happy with your watch being treated with bleach, there is nothing more to say.
You make very strange comments and mix up responses to match your argument.
My reply was in response to your comment around Omega and Tudor using faux lume.
However, I am fine with it as it is my watch and I chose to do it.
Faux lume? ☕
I'll say it again. I think there's no comparison between bleach and the misnamed faux patina.

I have always found the bezel on these watches is very distracting, so I like what you did. It reminds me of the naturally faded bezels on the Rolex 16700.
I disagree. They’re both artificially recreating attractive, age related patina.
But, we don’t have to agree do we. Opinions are what make this hobby interesting.
Doesn't it all come down to giving it an aged look?
Reflect on that question.
I did before I typed it. I was just trying to get your perspective on it, but I don't think that will happen.
I agree, it’s exactly like faux patina, which I generally don’t like.
It’s not something I’d do on a valuable or collectible watch but on a cheap, beater watch like the SKX which costs less than many straps it’s a nice bit of experimentation and fun for me. Especially when I have two others which are completely unmolested.
I also like how it turned out!
Experimenting is always fun, and when you get this result - very cool!
It makes me think about the faded bezels on other watches...😉
And I also wonder why some members (and I think you Guys know who I mean....) have to "bitch" about this...?
