    Re: My Bronze Tuna Emperor!

    I really like this-it takes the Emperor from an already magnificent finish to another level! To me, it looks like a well-used, not abused piece.

    I'd be tempted to do this sometime in the future, but for now, I'm enjoying the factory look.

    Agreed, it's a fantastic watch!

    Re: My Bronze Tuna Emperor!

    Thanks for all your comments guys! I was not expecting so many bronze fans!

    To answer the question: ''will that color hold''

    It will hold like any titanium that has been anodized. I have climbing gear made of titanium that is anodized and the only way that the ''color'' can be removed is when you scratch it. (bump it on rocks ect...) The cool thing about anodizing is that if the watch gets scratched, I can buff it out and give it a quick ''zap'' and it's back to new again!
    Time is an illusion.
    Time does not exist.
    Time is an artificial unit created to give us the illusion of control.
    Time is the product of our focus on a linear existence, but our true existence is circular.'.
