About The Bronze We Use CuSn8 is the chemical composition of the metal. It is rose gold in color. It is made usually of 7.5-8% Tin, approx. 92% copper and around 0.30% phosphorus. This mix is highly sought after due to its low amount of impurities, and because it hardly gets any reaction from oxygen. This, in turn, makes the material all the more resistant to all possible forms of corrosion. Your watch may and likely will get a slight Patina over time (much slower rate than lower quality bronze) but the high quality bronze we are using is resistant to corrosion. You can on occasion polish your watch to get rid of any patina that occurs. CuSn8 Bronze is the highest quality bronze for watch making.

  Surely this was never worth $1,144?

    yeah for sure, but at this current price a bronze watch with a sapphire crystal and Japanese movement is very good value if you are into the Panarai aesthetic.

      Didn't realise it is meant to be a Panarai knock off.. perhaps if it had the signature crown guard..

      I also find the face pretty drab and the lug to lug is massive so would be hard to get a good fit for most people.

    You wouldn't think so, I've never heard of that brand.
    Nh35 movements are cheap and common (but still good work horses). Leather on a dive watch doesn't make sense.. looks a bit simple for the size too and the lug to lug seems massive. Not a fan of the polished gold vs brush bronze. Looks nice enough if you are into that look though and would be alright for the reduced price. $54 for shipping is a lot.

      I believe that's $54 USD too..

    no doubt it wasnt worth that and probably never sold for that.

    'sale' price of $435 on the other colour ways is probably the regular price and much more realistic but also not a bargain.

    Current price is great value though

  Fairly ugly looking watch but bronze case at this price is really amazing.

  If it had a better looking bezel, I would be considering doing a frankenwatch and replacing the dial, though lug to lug 54.75mm is massive and probably only for people with super large wrists.

    FYI, you can get plenty of real bronze cases on Aliexpress for less. Also, this brand is always on discount.

      Got any links to make sure I don't bite..? 😅

      The shipping is killer alone for me right now but I do need my first bronze.. Sapphire and easily modable NH35 is a plus at this price range though, think I'm on the fence really..

        That Glycine Full Bronze GMT is still up on Kogan for $706 haha. Depends if you are happy with either olive drab green dial, or royal blue dial.

          @tekisei: That's WILD! 😅

          What's this royal blue dial you're talking about?

          Edit: Oh, you're still talking about the Glycine Bronze, face colourways.. 😅

        Have a look at San Martin on Ali, one of the better quality micro brands and various bronze styles. The price is still getting up a bit, and their identity is sometimes confusing with different logos.

  Excellent price for a bronzo inspired watch.. the casing if pure bronze alone would make it worth it

  https://www.panerai.com/au/en/new-panerai-submersible-bronzo…

  thats the original for ref which sells in the 50000 + range new…massive watch and heavy .. Never heard about this brand though the movement is well known

      Huh weird, mine wasn't changing to AUD last night at checkout.. I never went through with the purchase though.

      Thanks for that, might give it another try soon.
