Hello everyone! I’m letting some of my newer monogram pieces get some sun today. Do any of you all do the same thing? I absolutely love dark patina! What are some of your tips and tricks?

I don’t do anything special. I just carry them normally but try to avoid rainy weather. I carry my DE bags on those days. I don’t mind patina and I love watching new vachetta turn!

If you really want to darken patina quickly, try flying with your pieces. I find traveling alone will age the patina so soon, it's like months of heavy use!
Wow, this is very interesting! I fly a lot and I never thought about using this method to darken the patina. Do you happen to know the reason why this happens?
