Here are the patina shots I promised.

 









I hate how this watch had began to patina. Nothing like other brands who have made bronze watches. So I decided to try the boiled egg patina method on it even though I said it would not do anything to speed up the patina. The boiled egg process only made the watch look worse.

I tried removing the patina with lemon juice, but that didn't work. So I tried to the tooth paste on it, and it worked a lot better. It's not quite as bright as it was when it was shipped but it looks a ton better than that crappy patina I had before.
