    I just got this yesterday. It's heavy, it's bronze and green, and it's a gadget-lover's watch.

    These are stock photos, but identical to my watch. Bought from a U-Boat dealer in Charleston SC.

    Think it looks fantastic, it’s a big wrist watch but it looks proportional in its mass.
    Very interested to see how these things age and change because they are all supposed to be different over time dependant on the life they have led.
    Enjoy and wear in good health.

    Thanks - my previous Bronzo got very dark, but since this has a portion of the strap under the watch, that should prevent most of the problems with direct skin contact.

    On the wrist (but low-quality indoor iPhone pic):

    Would a thin coat of matt clear lacquer work to prevent verdigris from forming or turning skin green?

    It might help with my first Bronzo (now sold), but this one has no such problems. Not sure why - could be the new strap design that goes under the watch case, or maybe they changed the case material composition.
