Dear Tudor aficionados, I had the chance to see and try on the Tudor BB Bucherer Bronze (blue dial/bronze case) boutique edition today. It was my first time trying on a Tudor, ever. Not surprisingly, it wore very nicely, even though I expected it would we...  

...  

I purposely left this one out because I expect it would win by a landslide And I have indeed requested it, but it’s hard to get. Not sure if it’s a LE or just a matter of patience. Still, it says a lot that you sold your Bronze in favor of this one…and th... 

It takes time to pass METAS testing. ...  

The more you guys post the Ceramic version, the more my original question becomes irrelevant I think we may already be there

The BBB Bucherer Blue nato has issues and becomes loose very fast and I think the blk ceramic is a perfect piece .. Iam not a fan of patina but living in a coastal city the dark shade is not impressive which evolves within days .. I had purchased two . On... 

It would have been perfect with a solid case back, though... Rather than this non sense see through case back. Best, Nicolas

When I purchased my first BB58 it was a perfect fit . Like you said its all about personal preference. Imho the BB58 ticks all my boxes ...  

Having a few Tudors of which the BB58 925 is the newest addition I’d defiantly go for the silver from over the bronze. It’s just my eyes that do all the work for me and for me at least the silver is infinitely more attractive. Not really a fan of the colo...  

I agree with you that aesthetically the silver speaks to me more strongly. The bronze is cool, but I guess i’m more intrigued by it, as opposed to impressively connected/sold on it. Plus, the patina that would change its look will also change my attitude ... 

Passed on many chances to get the Bucherer Blue at an absolutely good price. I already have the steel 41mm version, which is too similar to the bucherer in size. In the end, fate brought the silver to me. ...  

I’m passing on the bronze, and will see what comes in future. Thanks for your input!

Geross. ...  

I saw the recommendation further up the line about the Black Bay ceramic. I don't post mine too frequently, but let me just say it has had a great impact on my small collection. It is now my most worn black watch. It is as accurate as my Glashutte Chronom... 

I have noted previously that you are also in the BB ceramic camp, and there’s no question about that one. But what strikes me about it being your most worn black is that you also have the awesome ceramic GP skeleton, which is a huge favorite of mine. It’s... 

Anyone attending a 10th grade chemistry class can tell you the perils of putting an aluminum bezel insert, against a bronze case. Rolex and Tudor must not have had anyone that passed the 10th grade on the design team, or their complete lack of apathy notw... 

I cannot disagree with your characterization as it being an IG watch, because it is such presentations that initially influence me. To be honest, in person it was also nice, but I believe I expected a different experience when trying it on. AND the patina... 

Blu amazing

Frankly, I find those "novelty" alloys little more than a gimmick. Be it bronze or silver, these are vastly inferior alloys to stainless steel, or even ceramic, for watch making. On the bronze, besides the oxidation, my concern would be the well reported ... 

At this point, accounting for everyone’s opinion and experiences, neither of these options are for me. Thanks 🙏🏼
