When novelty is not novel. Tudor should hang back from releasing too many variants of the same thing.

What's really intriguing is , Tudor / Rolex never have a boutique business model, but they somehow have a "Boutique Edition"

Expected this. Had an inkling that it is a variant on a current model.

I'd say this new release from Tudor are for those who'd think the OG BBB are a little bit too big at 43mm vs 39mm.

Im sure it will given the existing Tudor bronze units we see out there that have “patina-ed”

Full bronze good to kill bacteria too…lol

Gold, Silver then Bronze, Olympics?  :shocked1:
Btw, I'm a fan of the 369 applied Arabic numerals and the quick adjustment clasp, can we have it on normal SS models too?

That was my fear as I was once tempted to get a bronze watch...I guess it is a personal preference

You can always restore your patina bronze watch back to its pristine "showroom" condition so no worried.  ;D

I thought people who bought a bronze watch are actually looking for the patina effect on the watch, surprising that some people think the the bronze won’t tarnish

People who get a bronze watch wants the watch to patina and different watch with different individuals wearing it will develop different form of patina effect, that’s what makes a bronze watch unique.. it will be rather weird to want to restore it often, perhaps one bought the watch without knowing much

I don't understand why Tudor wants to make watches with metals that will definitely tarnish. Bronze and silver will oxidise over time. Only a very specific breed of enthusiasts will want their watch to look that way. Furthermore they are tool watches and expected to be worn daily. Unless the owners maintain the watches to keep it pristine.

Rolex on the other hand has gone the other route to ensure that their precious metals will not tarnish.

Maybe at the end of the day I just don't understand the industry.

Tudor is no longer the same Tudor who lives under the shadow of Rolex. They has taken their own route and it has so far been a succesful one.
