    I've Pulled the Bronze Trigger

    I've read all the posts, asked some questions, visited the web site and looked at renders (why no finished pictures )....... But I've just put my order in for the BS100 Bronze (I went for the brown face option).

    This will be my first bronze watch and will be for my wedding anniversary (21 years at the end of March). I'm now looking at rings for my wife - as she's not into watches .


    Just thought I'd share the news as it feels good to finally 'get off the fence' on this.


    Regards

    Congrats on the big day. Nothing is more beautiful than a loving marriage. Add in a bronze AD, well that's just icing on your anniversary cake!

    Beano,

    The reason pictures have not been posted yet is because the first 2 prototypes were assembled yesterday and the photographer is coming to take pictures on Friday. As soon as we have pictures, we’ll immediately post them for all of the world to see.

    Again, congrats on your pre-order. You'll be amazed I'm sure.

    Re: I've Pulled the Bronze Trigger

    Which casebacks are you guy going with?
    Still not sure. Really want bronze but worried a bit about skin irritation/discoloration.
    Also not sure, as has been suggested, I want to cover the caseback with nail polish.

    I don't think I have a skin reaction so I've gone for the bronze back. Discoloration may occur (as a result of sweat), but that will wash off - and may add to the patina :)

    If you think/know you will get a reaction, then go for SS back to avoid any hassles.

    Thanks for the response.
    Really don't know if I will or not but just really like it all bronze.
    I may just risk it.
