Some folks mentioned the black handset on the salmon dial looks strange. ET explained the black hands were the most legible. I actually think they look good, the contrast with the black bezel on the SS version really stands out IMO.
 
Be aware that this dial release is not Salmon, but described as Copper color. Liking it too, however with the Bronze bracelet I feel it may be too much of a monotone look, leaning towards the white Dial, and the thought of buying lots of lemon juice to keep the bronze looking shiny new.
haha...cornering the market on lemon juice... got some on amazon from shadow of mt vesuvius...drinking it too ...cheers
 
It looks pretty Salmon to me despite the name change. But I can see that there might be a slight coppery tint to this one. Definitely my pick.
salmon is a nod to grails of the 1930's...the ZELOS NOVA 7001 hand sind peseux 10 minute sell-out
 
I'm not a bronze fan, but the idea of a bronze bracelet with the case is pretty cool. 😎
not sure on bronze bracelet... maintenance issue and oxidation...E.T. putting points on the board for innovation effort

now as a proponent... I wonder if bronze bracelet might be like copper bracelet for wrist pain...just might be
 
well interesting to see CARLO review...self described NEWBIE...from Carlo I glean an affinity for BLING... he is wearing a blingie G-shock... and yeah the 40mm CuSn8 SF got bling...

CARLO seems to have gotten a free SF...good on him...1 thing hookers and wits got in common...handle enuff tools and should be plenty happy endings...CARLO's horo cogniscensce shall only increase and rival his enthusiasm with tyme-

-true the " energy" in the watch market seems to be in the gravitational orbit of BLING- AVENTURINE,BLUE SPACE ROCK, BRIGHT COLORED GIANT CLAM,TIMASCUS,FORGED CARBON, exotic stuff getting cheaper and cheaper out of china bring on the robots they don't need no food ,water or sleep...

- i prefer a modest wrist... but many wits have observed in themselves the only thing constant is change...fashions change and individual tastes change

I ALMOST HAD TROUBLE SLEEPING LAST NIGHT WONDERING...ANY BODY THINK ON THE FULL BRONZE ELAPSED TIME BEZEL FINGERS WILL LEAVE PATINA PRINTS ? opinions appreciated especially from fellas who have actually have experience fingering the BRONZE

-thinking on the FULL METAL JACKET BRONZE BRACELET... interesting a full bronze outer-shell and full inner SS... very complicated and exotic... well i haven't worn metal cuffs in years... a novelty item wonder how it will function andnhold up

FINAL THOUGHT... FEAR THE VERDIGRIS ? not me... i like green stuff...BENJAMINS and copper... copper is reputed to have anti-inflammatory properties especially carpal tunnel from playing on the PC too much... modern processed food and other enviro stressors leave the body depleted of minerals vulnerable to pathogens... fear the red stuff ? not me...got copper ?

50mm pretty please. I think I'd stay with a nice ammo strap instead of the bracelet. I will be interested to see how the bracelets hold up over time.
 
Personally, I think any bracelet made of bronze could become problematic in time. It also hinges on how much it gets worn as well allowing patina. Too many articulating parts and crevices. The SS backing protects the skin in that regard, so that's a plus. Besides being expensive to make a bracelet with two materials with a stainless steel backing, it's probably why until recently there have not been many brands making bronze watch bracelets other than ORIS.

I have enough bronze in my collection. I can see the bronze trend waning even more in years to come.
