Tudor to unveil Black Bay Bronze at Basel. Thought I'd share....

 

That's going to sell like nothing else.
Not sure if I like the addition of arabic numerals, though.

 

Rumoured to have in in-house movement. Another pic:

 

And another:

 

Unfortunate about the 43mm size though.

 

Agreed, the 41mm wears big as it is. 43mm is a tad too big imho.....it won't stop this selling like hot cakes though.

 

Tudor - The flippers watch

Flipped like a pancake, more often than any other lately

 

43mm? That's pretty big..! But probably right in the sweet spot for those who normally seeks out bronze microbrand watches, if WUS is anything to go by.

 

I ll stick with black bay black

 

I really like the arabic numerals, and it looks great! 43 too big but here's hoping we get the option for the "explorer dial" on the Blue or Black....

 

I like it but the price may put some off if it comes in at a big $

 

It's the hour hand I don't like. It looks clumsy.

 

I'm really not a huge fan of this one at all. Cool concept with the bronze case, but I feel like overall this is a step backwards for Tudor.
I'd like to see a 36mm-40mm version with a forced patina, and ditch that tacky nato for one that offers a little contrast, or maybe a worn leather strap.

 

I like it, different enough without being something that will looked dated in a few years.

 

I love it but not sold on the arabic numerals. It's like they're trying to add too much to it. But the bronze/brown combo is lovely.

 

I think that a 43mm bronze diver will look massively dated in no time. It absolutely screams 2013-201X to me.

EDIT: Would have been worse if they'd made it pre-patinated...

 

Well then again I think every tag ever made, with very limited exceptions look dated, but they sell a lot of them. They all remind me of some eighties Nagel painting / Magnum PI episode.

I suppose that's why they offer so many different style watches.....

 

Absolutely! Look at how much Omega's designs have changed (well, except the you-know-what) over the years - a lot of those designs are horribly dated, but come into fashion again from time to time. Speedmaster MK II is one example.

 

Meh.
