It's probably copper plated. A great many manufacturers used to use copper before switching to other metals to prevent corosion. Omega still proudly uses copper.


Could very well be. Thank you!

Have to chime in and say that Senator 60s is really a great looking watch! Great purchase, Renault!

If you are seriously asking yourself that question, I would suggest to put your credit card back into your wallet because there is a lot more reading you need to do. Completely different leagues

If you like the 60s in a pic you will LOVE it when you actually wear it.

Really? I see the rado for 600-800 and the iwc for 300. They aren't that far off really. It's not like they are 5k+ watches.

Are you referring to El Guapo's watch? The IWC, I mean.

If you are, lmfao. That sir, is most definitely not a $300 watch.

Be careful of looking up fakes on the internet if that's the price you're seeing it for.

I think you are right. Lol my bad. Didn't realize the iwc was that much. I guess the rado is a lot less. What's the most I should pay for a rado chrono - 1200?
