little scary, but yea, I tried a quick search online and couldn't find much on the topic. You'd think they've been out quite a while that many others would be facing a similar issue (although the post refers to definite other who noticed black spots/corrosion, just not posting online).

It also notes one where "half the inlay was gone", now that I would want to see a picture of.

I mean, if it's something like when un-anodized aluminum (like foil) comes into contact with acidic or salty foods, the definitely could see an issue, but I would have to assume the bronze would have to play an effect given how long Tudor/Rolex have used aluminum inserts, but interesting that the example shown the holes are on the interior of the bezel next to the sapphire, not where the bronze is.
