Getting a bronze black bay 58
For the lucky owners how are you obtaining it? And is it hard? There's only one boutique in US and I wonder if I have to show up in person to get one.

I have one and think it an excellent piece. Bronze is beautiful. Best of luck in your search. Should not be hard.

I'm curious to know how the bronze will oxidize.

I got one the first week of the new Tudor boutique in NYC. My brother in law wanted one and the AD there was able to get him one in about a week.

Coming soon to an AD near you in the USA. I would think at some point they will be trickled out to the AD network. No reason not to do it and maximize sales and keep the hype going.

Is the bronze black bay a definite buy or just a ok watch?

Does it come with both the bracelet and the leather strap?
How heavy is it? Is it comparable to a steel piece?

Was looking up reviews on this watch and ran across this video. Haven't watched it myself yet, but since you asked about it, I figured I'd share it here.

Here is mine with about a month worth of wear including a trip to the Caribbean. You can see how quickly it changed and the patina came through fairly evenly and in a nice tone. There was a bit of green patina where the endlinks meet the watch body, but I have since cleaned that out. Overall I love how it is aging and I have gotten several compliments on it.
