I am curious on one thing. Do ALL bronze cases achieve patina in that manner? Even for the Bronzo and the Anonimo Bronze Polluce?

i believe they all will have the same patina effect because they all use the same bronze material which is CuSn8.
but how true... we'll have to see some Bronzo Pam owner to post their pictures in time....

the case back with Ancient Kauri Wood found in New Zealand and it is claim to be the oldest workable wood in the world for more than 45000 years.
Nice, handsome looking watch.
I like the unique case back, but wonder if it can hold up to our moist / wet whether?
Congrats & wear in good health.
Take care, Ciao!  :thumbsup:

Looking at the picture, the wood is behind a glass piece. Am I right or it is actually wood touching the skin?
