ddaddy1982 0 Posted November 8, 2014 Great watch indeed. New to the forum and this is my first post here. Not sure if this is permissible, but if you are happy and trust (which I assume you are) with the service, would you mind sharing the contact of the micro-TD. I am looking for the same watch and had few unsuccessful attempts. PM if do not want to make public. Understood and respect if you are not comfortable on doing so. .dan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ddaddy1982 0 Posted November 8, 2014 PM me too while your're at it plankton.... although it looks like i'm going KW V3 from psycospike I love mostly everything about the KW V3,but I wouldn't mind using a trusted TD, preferable one that can do few mods and some primary QC. I assume you've dealt with psycospike in the past and she/he can be trusted. I appreciate your comments. .d Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kleban 0 Posted November 8, 2014 I must admit I didn't get the Panerai thing at first, but they're growing on me. This is an interesting looking watch - but maybe a bit bigger than I would be comfortable with... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One that can do so mods, like changing the orings to make it water proof as much as possible, some regulation work to get it close to COSC. I am helpless when it come to watch work, unfortunately . Or I need to find a watch craftsman here in Toronto, Canada that could do that for me. Maybe I am taking the wrong approach, gladly accepting suggestions. .d Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TDs don't do this kind of work standard and won't/can't do it as they don't have the people who can do anything beyond assembly and simple QC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

trailboss99 994 Posted November 9, 2014 Plankton.... does the Bronzo take a bit of upkeep.... sorry for my ignorance, but how bad does it tarnish it or is it coated... It is supposed to tarnish, Plank is being different, he polished his. If you want it shiny I'd be guessing a quick going over with a cape cod every week or two would keep it that way, it depends on where yu live and what's in the air matye.

ANDMAN.ELLIPSIS 0 Posted November 9, 2014 Thanks Boss... That was what I was looking for..... I live in two completely different environments , 6 months at a time, so it'll be interesting to see how the metal reacts.. One at altitude , very dry and cold.. The other sea level , humid ,hot and salt in the air.... Cape cods are at the ready Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
plankton 1 Posted November 10, 2014 Easiest way for this watch is a quick lemon bath (it is water tight) , 1/2 lemon in 1/2 cup of warm water in small dish. Let the watch sit for a couple of minutes and then brush it with a toothbrush and toothpaste. I like the clean look, at least right now.

plankton 1 Posted November 13, 2014 The more of these I see I realize how difficult they must be to buy one thats all set up perfect. Is BRONZE more difficult to work with? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

geecee 0 Posted November 17, 2014 That looks amazing with that strap, i have just ordered my first watch from KW the rose gold PAM511 cant wait for it to arrive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
perry 0 Posted November 24, 2014 I have the factory v2 and I love it. However the watch cleaned of patina really looks too much like brass. I have three bronze strap buckles from three different sources....they look the same in terms of color. My Bronzo however is much more brassy looking....totally different color. I suggest that the patina on this watch is a very good thing as it alters it's brassy look making it a more gen like looking watch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

romannyc 0 Posted June 4, 2015 (edited) color looks off on your bronzo, however bronze changes color with age... how long did you have your watch for because the image below is a watch 3 years old. above is a real bronzo Edited June 4, 2015 by romannyc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
plankton 1 Posted June 4, 2015 Man I've never kept a watch for more than 3 months. It's Bronzo- bathed in lemon to keep it shiny. I maybe had that one for 3 months or so. I do not like the patina look, reason for the lemon baths. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
