The caseback would be stainless steel so there is less skin contact on the bronze, some people might be allergic to some of the alloys.
If mine turns green in some places.... cool, that is why it is unique.
as for the strength, I am not sure of it's hardness number, it is a combination of Alloys. My stainless watches also scratch and dent when they take an impact.
Bronze is mainly made of copper and tin or can be added aluminium for marine products. Anyway, made of metals much softer than steel and even more than stainless steel 316 for exemple. I didn't mean that SS cases are not getting scratched or dinged: Offcourse they do but the bronze will be, at earlyer stress stage.
