I love patina on watches, the beauty of it is that it looks different in different lighting and adds to a watches character. Now would I choose a watch with great patina and a not so great case, that's a difficult one to answer.

Nice photos all! True that patina can really give a watch character from many different angles.

You beat me to it Adam! I agree completely.
