    I´m planning my next purchase and I'm stuck between 2 watches. I know they are in different price ranges, but I still can't decide which one to choose.
    Option 1: Zenith cronometro tipo CP-2 Bronze
    Option 2: Tudor Black bay Bronze.

    As you can see, I want to add something in bronze to my collection and I find those 2 the most appealing to my eye.

    Which one do you connoiseurs recommend??

    I am a fan of the Tudor, specifically the blue Bucherer edition or the new grey version unveiled at Basel.

    I’m partial to dive watches, and I love the explorer dial on the Black Bay Bronze variants.

    If I were better equipped, I’d post a pic of previously purchased Black Bay.;)

    My vote would be the Tudor. I like the looks a bit more over the Zenith and bronze in a Diver just makes more sense to me Versus a pilot watch.

    Of course, you've got to get what you like the most. Give us a pic once you commit. Cheers.

    I really loved omega watches until I came across a nice deal on a zenith captain chrono last year. It has become my favorite watch, specially because it came with 2 additional straps which I really like. They make it look sportier. Of all my watches, that is the one that gets the most wrist time.
    This is the configuration I like and wear the most. It is a black kevlar strap IMG_3227.jpeg IMG_3228.jpeg

    This is one of the aftermarket straps that came with it. Looks awesome on it.
