I'm totally in love with the new Heritage Black Bay!
But I can't decide from the pics between Dark Pvd-Coated and Bronze one.

Personally, I like Bronze one better. Since it is a bronze watch and in time it will develop a patina which will become unique.

What are your thoughts about these watches?

Bluside · 22 March 2016, 01:41 AM

Neither of those two. I love my Black Bay Black with the rose dial.

I don't have one, but this one is defenitly my favorite because of the dial and bezel! Congrats on your great watch!

Cryten · 22 March 2016, 01:59 AM

The BB dark is pure watch porn.

My only concern is the price, at $4475 it seems a little steep.

joe100 · 22 March 2016, 03:55 AM

There were more than just those 2 released. I'm gonna get the 36mm

sickened1 · 22 March 2016, 04:00 AM

At 43mm, Bronze is too big for me. No love for BB36?

It is a gorgeous watch, however it should have another name rather than Black Bay. Come to think of it I think Tudor should have just called the Black Bay a Submariner in the first place and be done with it! Cheers.

Liked the idea of the 36mm a lot more until I realized that the crystal is flat and not domed. Still a great watch though.

I have a Blue with the Rose dial. Am picking up a black rose dial later this week and have a deposit on the bronze for likely late summer/ early fall whenever they arrive.

^ Bronze as a material works really well with the 382. With the BB design? Not so much, IMHO.

So, PVD BB for me, but definitely not the version with the bracelet.

HogwldFLTR · 22 March 2016, 05:55 AM

PVD BB for me but already have a BBR so no way.

Sublovin · 22 March 2016, 05:58 AM

No offense, but I just don't see how that verdigris look on the bronze is appealing? Would not want that on my wrist.

cdbeaver66 · 22 March 2016, 06:24 AM

PVD for me, Bronze size is too big for me. Looking forward to seeing both though and more so the BB36.

mfer · 22 March 2016, 07:06 AM

Why did they need to make it bigger....

capote · 22 March 2016, 07:20 AM

I would never wear a bronze watch so PVD I guess

ZeKe · 22 March 2016, 08:14 AM

NEITHER!!
Sorry just not into PVD coating nor bronze.

ltmgeller · 22 March 2016, 12:20 PM

Pvd for me. I was considering having one of my gmt 16700s pvd coated but didn't want to have any issues with future servicing. This is the best alternative.

Exactly! We are on the same page here.

kunlun · 22 March 2016, 12:53 PM

36

Star Ferry · 22 March 2016, 12:55 PM

Dark over Bronze. 43mm is too big for my taste.

Dr.Smellody · 22 March 2016, 02:23 PM

BB Bronze!

Gregc57 · 23 March 2016, 12:47 PM

I just don't trust PVD not to scratch and get ugly. I'm rough on stuff.

ap1 · 23 March 2016, 12:57 PM

3-6

DCheeta · 23 March 2016, 12:58 PM

I'm sorry, I can't vote. I don't want the PVD nor the bronze...I am in love with the 36!

It looks like a Tudor Explorer...but the minute hand is too long.

AngryApe · 24 March 2016, 09:02 AM

I'm all for the bronze!!
