Beautiful watches - the patina is excellent. My own is slowly coming along and starting to develop multi layered tones. The moment is saw this watch (noob) I had to have it. It's already had a swimming holiday in Koh Samui with no ill effects.

Hey Guys, how to get the patina? let it age by itself or ????

 

Liver of sulfur (LoS) is how I got my patina. Just fancied playing around to see what could be achieved

I gave mine a very light LOS treatment! I rubbed a little off and gave her a light rebrushing. I want to give her a soft, warm look; like a gradual aging.

Thanks for all the pics guys....loving all of them, but I notice that pcardoza have the better CP IMHO. Did you modify it or is it a V2 or V3? There's a big difference on the two ZF model's CP like 436NR's model (slightly sunken)??? 

I'm with ya!

No, they're the same (assuming that you're referencing the crown guard). The difference that you're seeing is that pcardoza's engraving has not patina'd (which has me scratching my head as to why) and mine and the rest has.

Thanks pal! The brushing on the bezel is starting to disappear, and in sunlight, the patina on it is beginning to look almost translucent with some geometric designs starting to come through from the bronze.

Sorry, I was talking about the Canon Pinion Head. His is very close to the GEN:
