    So I just happened to come across these pictures on the internet.

    Bronze watches or watches that can have a patina. I searched for them online and boy are they expensive. Can anyone help me look for something similar? Bronze watches that are able to put a patina on. Maybe around the $500 price range or lower.

    Thanks!

    The Armida A1 (42mm) 300m brass watches are $349 shipped. Well below your price range. Just Google Armida Watches and you’ll get the URL.

    Cool. Looks similar to the Ancon one on top though.

    Maranez is within your budget ~$300 new while the Ancon is $700

    The $300 Maranez has a brass case not bronze, the bronze version is $800 … 🙁

    Brass is a relatively soft metal, maybe not best for a watch case. Tarnishes very quickly, if brass ornaments are anything to go by

    By tarnish you mean patina?

    My Drill Sergeant never referred to the state of my uniform buttons and webbing fittings by either word, both of which are too polite. I guess patina sounds better.
