Incoming...with an added Bonus Surprise!

Got the call from my AD just less than a couple of weeks ago to let me know know that my Tudor Black Bay Bronze had been delivered and collected it today...the dial is beautiful in the flesh!



Compliments the other Black Bay Bronzes giving me a trilogy!



Now for the added bonus! There has been talk about a Mk1/2 bezel for the BLRO and I had already received my when they were first launched and today my AD rewarded me by getting this from the safe (obviously I purchased it!) and I certainly can now confirm that this one is DARKER than the previous.

Happy for you - great collection including the BB Bronze.

Honestly funny that so many people are aching for the BLRO, and your ad gets you 2!

You must have been buying more than Tudor's over the years.

I’ll let the wife try it and if she thinks it suits her then she can wear it. If not, then I think I’ll put the original one away and use the one that we picked up today.

Have bought a few Rolex watches from them and all my watch purchases do go through them...even when I feel I might save a “little” more from another dealer. It pays dividends and I certainly can’t complain.

Congrats bud! Beautiful BB collection!

... Waiting for non-believers to comment that the OP has somehow mistaken the colors and differentiation.

Bezel colors are different! Thank you OP for confirming and we all envy you for having 2!

Personally, I think I actually prefer the darker colours of the one I picked up today so I’m hoping the wife doesn’t like it so that I wear this and the original one gets tucked away!

Cheers! No comments as of yet but the colour difference was instantly noticeable when I got them together so that made me smile!

Excellent additions! Great collection and Congrats!

I can corroborate on the new bezel being a darker shade. I never participated with my opinion on the many debate threads on this until I saw it for myself, in hand, recently.
Love it!
