Default Long lasting finish on door lock and handle.

I currently have brass-finished door locks and they get weather-worn,
pitted? and don't look very good.

In practice, I'm not going to clean them.

I need new locks anyhow. Do any of the other finishes resist weathering
and what looks like pitting more than brass?

Venetian Bronze, I especially like.
Antique Brass, I think is nice,d

Satin Nickel, maybe.
Satin Chrome, eh, but maybe it wears better?

TIA
