Tudor Black Bay Bronze Bucherer Blue Edition - First Review
This was quick! The watch was officially presented today and I decided to go for it so here is my initial review that for these that know my posts are mostly visual 
Tudor just launched this Black Bay Bronze in a special edition for Swiss retailer Bucherer in a navy blue (vs the more vintage looking regular edition)
At 43mm this is not a small watch but it wears reasonably well even on smaller wrists like mine.
The blue of the dial seems to be navy
the strap is blue with a gold strip. I love how tudor makes these straps (see https://www.tudorwatch.com/magazine/article/the-fabric-strap for more information ..not your regular nato
strap!) it comes also with an aged leather brown strap.
tudor buckle
a pretty thick watch but wears comfortably!
I like this watch because is something different and -- considering the in-house caliber -- is priced well! A good watch to wear on the beach or for an adventure, on ground or on sea.
What do you think ?

Well that was fast!
Love the color combo here, and your pictures demonstrate those strengths well.
Congrat's on the new acquisition.
Do you have other bronze watches? How do you feel about the inevitable uneven patina?
Cheers,
John
thanks! my first bronze watch
a bit curious about the patina! I saw some photos online so I hope it will gain some character/still look cool thou ?
that really fast
congrats. It looks good, it is the same case as the one without the blue dial?
The bronze has a different hue
yes same case I think!
hue should also be the same I think..should be the tudor combination with aluminium but not sure
Congratulations...
That is a wonderful piece and I am glad you got it, any idea on how many will be made?
Thank You,
S

limited number but these watches will be available for a limited time (I think two years).
Christian
yes there is indeed time I don't think
one should ever be worried about that It will be at least 2 years or may be more..

She's a real looker!!
Congrats on the new Tudor, wear in the best of health. I had to pass on one in Zurich yesterday. The nato and the leather strap are too small for my Viking sized wrist. Tudor told me today as with last years BBBronze, that larger sized nato straps are not available and will not be available. Only the leather can be purchased in a larger size. Very disappointing. The sales associate and I noticed that the nato was not wide enough between the lugs. I see in the excellent pics yours is also.
Looks amazing!
Congrats and thanks for the wonderful review
My only wish is a strap that can be worn in the water and feel comfortable....!

Is the supplied NATO strap water friendly?
In other words all synthetic? Unlike the regular soft strap on the normal BBB?
I think so why not ?
as far as I know you can swim with it..I did it with another tudor and I had no issue with it.
For some reason thought it was a bit like cotton, slow to dry. Perhaps I was wrong... [nt]

Congratulations, amazing looking Tudor Black Bay Bronze
Contacted several Bucherer stores and already replied that they could not help me, all sold out
The good thing with your pictures is that they allow us to see the hue of blue. That was my main concern. This Navy Blue is very nice looking.
Congratulations, Speedy Gonzalez.

Thank you for the link. Interesting how the strap is fastened and where the name "Bucherer" is engraved.
Great catch. Enjoy it a lot ;-)

Same problem than in Paris: the width of the nato strap is not correct
I can't believe this!
Anyway, the watch is great, I wore it today and I was seduced.
Congrats!
