below are the case pics of the new Kazimon 1500b-v2...it has a bronze case,and a copper bezel this time around....if you look closely you can see the difference in colors of the materials,once patina sets in on the bronze it will be much more noticeable.   below,this is a pic of the mystery metal Kazim was going to use for the bezel originally,which was Corton Steel,a metal used in the building industry,which turns to a rusty brown color over time,everyone who pre-ordered the 1500b-v2 will receive one of these bezels as a complimentary,collectible gift from Kazimon...see Steve Jobs holding this bezel/case...very cool imo!...TY Kazim!   |

guys.... with your support i did it again... the first watchbrand on earth using this special copper.... i know people asking me always about the materials... but sorry i can not say, as you know soon other will try to copy with chinese copper..... so let them do it....let them try it...and let them learn there lessons. oh no ... i forgot they are for sure doing it in swiss.... sure.... lol the bezel and caseback will give the watch a top unique touch up making it the KAZIMON Bronze V2.... and again stricktly limited coming in a package with also first and unique corten steel bezel and caseback as a collectors item not for use on the watch....(or use at your own risk) :-) KAZIMON is the first using corten... it was a nice expierence but not usefull on the watch if you need to use it for diving..... again thanks for everybody who preordered as this is was the support for a unique watch. and also its supporting a small company and all people working for me here in germany.

Oxidation of the copper component will be interesting. It should have a green porous sheen to it. |

Oscar, the first preorders are shiped out today. and yours will be assambled this week. the price of the released watch is 1790euro. extremly rare and limited. and in my eyes the best combo materials i have seen so far. |

That looks fantastic! On the one hand, I am disappointed I didn't get in on this. On the other, I am curious to see how the copper will age. I don't know if I would want a green oxidized bezel on my finely aged bronze watch. Then again, the Statue of Liberty always looked pretty nice in green. Here's hoping either they age gracefully, or that V3 is bronze on bronze. This watch is still on my short list. |

unless you plan on leaving the copper bezeled 1500b out in the harsh elements of nature on a salty bed of water for many,many years,I don't think it will ever get as green as the Statue of Liberty,or anything like it... ...but it will patina nicely,along with the bronze case to a awesome 2 tone effect as Kenzo planned... |

Very much agree...Kazim, that looks spectacular!!! That will definitely age to a nice contrasting patina between the two materials over time! Very cool!  |

if anybody has problems on the caseback getting green,you can spray a transparent coat on it to avoid that. but i would wait until its gets its patina... |

Kazim, any specific kind of transparent coating? Will it avoid your hand getting green too? I got a few bronzo already plus yours coming in, now I use tape to tape on the caseback to avoid contact to my hand, I am locating in Asia and sweat a lot, a whole day outside makes my wrist greenish. or any other better ways ? thx Tony |

well my english is limited so i hope i could explain, there is clear coating used for metall. its available in matt. so not shiny. or you can use wax protection spray which is harmless. something like this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Protect-All-motorcycle-wax-paint-metal-plastic-glass-/200754605666?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2ebde82e62&vxp=mtr#ht_702wt_1081 |

My Kazimon 1500b v-2 arrived yesterday,and as expected with any Kazimon watch,it is Awesome!...the combination of the special copper,and bronze is very colorful,and although the difference in colr in these photos are slight,I can say since yesterday the copper has darkened an entire shade on it's own.I can only imagine how awesome this combo will look in the coming months.Ty Kazim for another outstanding watch from your already impressive stable my friend,the craftsmanship of these very limited hand made watches is very impressive imo...   |

Looks great! Will wearing it give sensitive skin a rash or turn your skin green? |

It will turn your wrist in green. Kazim advised to buy a transparent coat which used to wax or polish car. I use scotch tape to tape on the caseback, it worked, but sometimes hard to take off after a while  mainspring wrote: Looks great! |

Hi everyone. I'm new this forum, spend most time on TRF. Have been searching out Bronzos and when I found the 1500 I think the search has ended. Are the new 1500b V2 available? Any info. Would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Franz |

Does anyone know if this model will be released again? I sent and email through Kizimon's site and PM'd the man himself almost 2 weeks ago -- no reply as of yet. This is by far THE coolest looking bronze I've seen. |
