New addition worthy?
I had been admiring the bronze Tudor revealed at Basel, but in doing a bit of research, I came across this new bronze limited edition Oris also released at Basel. I was smitten with the retro looking domed crystal, monocromatic bronze bezel with brown face. Has very much a "Rolex Sub" look to it, but with a thinner and better comfort width. The buckle is already showing a cool patina on one half.
Oris has been doing some interesting things recently, but obviously no where near the prestige of Rolex nor the gaining stature of Tudor. Should I have just gotten the Tudor bronze? (I don't really need the "prestige", as my collection covers many of the usual suspects and I actually like a good value brand that may not be appreciated by others). Thoughts? |

Oris makes a good watch for the money and that bronze piece looks awesome imo

Nice watch but different in size and wear. If the Oris is the one it will work, if you are still looking at the Black Bay Bronze take the Oris back and get what you want. In the end it will be cheaper.
