Looks great on both strap options!

Very cool to see the Tudor In-House movement get the nod for the Black Bay Bronze over the ss versions. The "all-brushed" case finish was a small surprise for me, but will look great as the patina matures. Also a bit surprised to see Tudor go with an "aluminum bronze alloy" formulation versus the more popular copper bronze formulation (no complaints, as the awesome historical Anonimo brand used the aluminum bronze alloy and it ages extremely well IMO).

My biggest surprise with the Bronze version was the move to a larger 43mm case diameter versus the 41mm diameter of the ss versions.

Great entry from Tudor for sure.

The Black Bay Dark was also a significant surprise to me. I had seen the Bronze information swirling for the past week or so, but not the blacked out version. Looks great too, and as you can see, it gets the In-House movement as well. cool.gif

Is it just me or would lumed markers in a shiny ceramic bezel have been a better choice for the 43BB Bronze? Still looking good though, this one.

BB Dark sure is a looker.

BB36 not up my alley but for those who want a smaller watch it will be on their wish list for sure.
