murphy2para 0 Posted March 2, 2015 That's stunning Greg! How often do you have to maintain the bronze finish ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg_r 83 Posted March 2, 2015 That's stunning Greg! How often do you have to maintain the bronze finish ? Haven't done a thing. I've had a couple of 382s (down to just one now, though) and I just let them develop the patina naturally... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg_r 83 Posted March 2, 2015 FWIW this is the other one - it's a little shinier than the first. Still looks stunning though... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

markeym3 2 Posted March 3, 2015 Honest opinion is this the best one they have ever made? When this came out there was the cheaper "gold" version which as a watch aint bad ,,, then the ZF came out and it was stunning but then there was loads of hype over the KW version with all of the "issues" dealt with , so to date as far as I know the KW is the best version ,,, it is a great chunk of watch ..

perry 0 Posted March 5, 2015 I have the z v2. Beautifully made rep BUT case color is very "copper" or "brass" looking. Absolutely the KW watch looks like bronze. Go with KW here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
