The effect of oxidized bronze watches
When it comes to bronze, it is the earlier aluminum alloy that metal smelting and casting has ever been done. It also happens to be the immediate rise of the invention and creation of bronze that added the history of human development to the Bronze Age. As a result, bronze is more like a higher cultural art of human civilization. Bronze also has excellent characteristics such as low melting point, high strength, strong moldability, abrasion resistance, corrosion resistance, and brilliant luster. It is more suitable for the production of a variety of equipment, precision machinery, rolling bearings, transmission gears and so on.
Bronze is a very traditional metal material. The history of human civilization adopting bronze can be traced back to 5,000 years ago. Bronze is an aluminum alloy of copper and other metal materials, but because copper is very susceptible to air oxidation, bronze will be stained with a layer of light green light with the change of time during the whole process of adoption, and the tone will be darker and darker. As a result, because of this air oxidation, watches with bronze cases will stand out and become a core selling point. Bronze cases are often used by major brands for diving watches, mainly because stainless steel plates were not available in the early days of sailing. Bronze, with its excellent corrosion resistance, became the raw material of choice for the shipbuilding industry. In addition to ship hulls, it is also used to manufacture portholes, bells, ship fittings and marine instruments, so many people feel that bronze can make them think of the deep sea. Of course, this is not true. In short, bronze watches are a very unique type of wristwatch, with their own distinctive charm and elegance.文章源自复刻手表-https://www.bbtwatch.com/en/wbzs/68586-html

How bronze watches accelerate oxidation文章源自复刻手表-https://www.bbtwatch.com/en/wbzs/68586-html
Method 1:Boiled egg method.文章源自复刻手表-https://www.bbtwatch.com/en/wbzs/68586-html
1. Prepare a hard-boiled egg, then peel off the shell and cut the egg in half, then put them and the bronze watch into a plastic box. (Remember to remove the strap and lock the crown first)文章源自复刻手表-https://www.bbtwatch.com/en/wbzs/68586-html
2. Let them seal in the crisper for a few hours. During this process, the eggs release hydrogen sulfide gas. It reacts with the copper component of the bronze to form part of the black compound produced by the appearance of the case.文章源自复刻手表-https://www.bbtwatch.com/en/wbzs/68586-html
3. Remove the watch for inspection and rinse the watch with warm water, rinsing the egg odor in the process.文章源自复刻手表-https://www.bbtwatch.com/en/wbzs/68586-html
Method 2: Vinegar method.文章源自复刻手表-https://www.bbtwatch.com/en/wbzs/68586-html
1. If you think the oxidizing reaction of boiled eggs is not enough, try vinegar. Vinegar is usually an effective cleaning solution for removing patina, but if instead of touching the watch directly with vinegar, we let it work its way through a layer of media and the watch so that the vinegar can act as a patina gas pedal.文章源自复刻手表-https://www.bbtwatch.com/en/wbzs/68586-html
2. Place the watch in a plastic box, and then separate the watch from the vinegar in the box with a sponge and other items to allow it to react with the components of vinegar such as oxygen, carbon dioxide, hydrogen ions and water.文章源自复刻手表-https://www.bbtwatch.com/en/wbzs/68586-html
3. After putting it for one hour, turn the watch over and put it for another hour, then you can take the watch out, and then you will find that the watch has a strong copper-green effect.
What are the bronze watch replicas
Pena Sea Pam
When it comes to bronze watches, there's always a smash and grab commonplace, and that's Panerai's Pam382 watch. As soon as it is released, it gets robbed. Nowadays there is no way for the service desk to find out the watch. The watch is monolithic chosen to be crafted in machined bronze and has a diameter of forty-seven millimeters.

Tudor Small Copper Flower
After the Pena Hai, Tudor's bells and whistles are also very popular with consumers. Tudor does feel the crisp sweetness of bronze watches deeply. Several bronze watches have been released in the last two days, but the most iconic piece in my opinion is the 2016 release of the Petit Bronze. The Little Bronze is made of aluminum bronze aluminum alloy, which is not prone to patina formation, but the color of the case darkens as the time period advances, and has a very distinctive vintage-chic texture and grain. Watch diameter of forty-three millimeters, the clock selection of symbolic snow needle look, standard configuration of seagull 2836 movement, product quality is superb, relatively stable, safe and reliable. Bronze in energy on the flight.

Can a bronze watch be restored to its original condition after oxidation?
1. Scrub copper water and white rice vinegar, put the surface layer into a vessel, and let one type of the above two liquids pour into the vessel, so that the liquid thoroughly view the surface layer, and view the surface layer recovery. The air oxidation layer fades (about 1 minute), remove the watch, and clean and dry it with tap water.
2. Scrub copper paste, whitening toothpaste, the above two kinds of paste, squeeze molding in a very soft cloth to repeat the scrub to be repaired position, in order to exceed the actual effect required. Of course, I do not know the advantages of "Yunnan Baiyao" and "black sister". Clean and wipe clean.
3. Scrub the ash, mouth take a cigarette, left finger two fingers clip incense in-laws, the right side of the touch coat pocket, take out the lighter or matchstick and other special tools for lighter, fire, fierce smoking, collect the shaking off of the ash, and then wipe the position to be repaired, repeat the scrubbing, the actual difference in the effect of the brand with the smoke does not have much to do with the brand.
4. you can also go to a certain treasure to buy a low-priced polishing wax, subsequently in a small cotton cloth, holding certain cotton balls, this some raw materials ready, you can also put it away. The polishing wax is rubbed on the watch with a cotton ball. After rubbing, scrub with a cotton cloth. The actual operation is relatively simple. You just have to be increasingly attentive. Stop panicking. Take your time. A little bit at a time. There is very little damage to the watch, against the old recovery methods that were used before.
It is also timely to add that degreasing business products similar to dishwashing extracts can be solved by degreasing the surface layer and subsequently carrying out the old or restored actual operation, which will make the later aging and restoration more and more proportional. Of course, there are many methods that can be ignored or require less common raw materials that are not listed.
