Now, traditionally, "bronze" usually means an alloy of copper and tin, but there link are modern bronzes which don't use any tin at all (aluminum and zinc are common substitutes, and gallium, which is part of the same group as aluminum on the periodic table, is link a component of Bronze Gold). I think, given the metallurgy, it seems reasonable link to think of Bronze Gold as both a 9k gold, and as a bronze as well.

The watch is link so dignified, in fact, I wore it to my wedding. Wearing the SBGM221 (still on its blue strap) that day sealed its place in my heart, link cementing it as one of the few watches I won't ever sell. I'd toyed with the idea of wearing another watch, but in the link end I just knew it was the Grand Seiko I wanted to transform into an heirloom.

To be frank, I don't have a lot of references or inspiration from watches, Rexhepi says, before adding that he did take inspiration from link pocket watches and George Daniels. Pocket watch link designs inspired him to have a matte finish to his dial with contrasting polished hands link and indices. Meanwhile, there's inspiration from Daniels in the movement.
