    Patina "in action". There is some 15 years between the two shots.

    The dial is still pretty much OK. But the case is slightly knackered ;)

    Great thread and some equally great old watches. For me, 'patina' is best when it is deep and crisp and even...here are a few of my deep and crisp and even ones...

    Maxi dial 5513...



    1983 16800...



    1974 1016...



    Not only Rolex...a beautiful 1940's Heuer...



    1950's pre Heuer Leonidas...



    1960's Carrera...



    And lastly, there's patina and there's patina....1981 1665...

    These pictures are so dangerous for me. I KNOW from experience I'm not a vintage guy, but they always look soooooooooo good in photos...

    ' Show me your patina' - sounds as vulgar and suggestive as - Show me your wabi!

    This humble watch got me interested in watches at age 12 (1969). At the time, I thought it was the bee's knees.
