SUMMARY

Tudor expanded its successful Black Bay range in 2016 by releasing a bronze reference. The watch encompasses all the attributes that have made the model line successful but introduced this new material and a more substantial 43mm case. The dial and aluminium bezel insert are finished in brown, nicely complementing the tones of the bronze. An “Explorer” style layout sees Arabic numerals positioned at 3, 6, and 9 o’clock, which pays homage to early Submariners and gives it a nice vintage touch.
