Thank you for the in depth review, well done. I own this watch for 2 years now, bought it in the Rome Boutique. I like it a lot on its bracelet, shell corovan brown strap in the winter and it looks ace on a green nato too for a sporty summer look. The patina is nice as it gives an unique vibe to the watch. I also reset it with the dental cleaner, it works like a charm. I am into watches that you don't see in everyone's wrist and this one is by far pretty unique. For me it's a great purchase.
Great review! Very thorough. Probably one of the best honest reviews I’ve seen. I would like to have seen more shots of you handling/ wearing the watch. I’m a fan of bronze watches and hope to have one in my collection at some point. Thank you for doing this.
@BPoole247 no problem! Thanks for watching. To answer your question, yeah the whole watch smells like bronze would. You do have to put it up to your nose and sniff it to smell it but it is made of that material so
Hello! I recently bought this watch and want to clean it like you did. I have a few questions, which brand dental cleaner product did you use? And is it not damaging glass or bezel? I love your video🫡
Hi, thanks for watching! I don't think the brand really matters as long as you're just using a denture cleaner pill. It didn't damage my glass or bezel, I just would be careful if you're going to do any kind of brushing
Had my bronze bb58 for a month and while I love it to bits I've experienced itching from wearing it I guess due to some nickel in the bronze? Also it definitely leaves grey marks on my wrist. Final downside is parts of bracelet are very sharp especially round the close mechanism so it can be uncomfortable with certain shirts or jackets
Yeah I dont get any itching but on humid days or if im sweating it'll leave green marks. And totally agree with the sharpness, I believe I said that in the video too.
Hey, sorry if it's not helpful but I don't really remember the brand name. I'm pretty sure any "denture cleaner" will do it. Didn't use a tooth brush to clean it. I actually soaked it multiple times, it won't hurt the watch
Funny i think the bronze is meh. But i respect it. I think it looks great on other people's wrists. Bronze is definitely an interesting metal, with root beer vibes even though i hate comparing tudors to other watches.
Just a tip for future videos, try to use avoid saying eem or other fillers when talking. It makes you look more confident and makes the listening experience better. Another thing you can do to improve the music mixing. Not trying to get you down only to help you on your youtube journey. Great video otherwise!
Why would you need a half link if you have the t-fit? The only reason people get a half link for the older BBs is because they lack the adjustment that the t-fit provides. Good review otherwise though.
Hey! I personally find that the T-fit doesn't provide a good enough adjustment. If I remove one link and have the T fit at max, it's too tight. If I add one link and have the T fit at its tightest, I feel like it's a bit too loose. In a way it mitigates the benefit of having on the fly adjustment when your wrist changes and it just becomes a regular bracelet with a half link. If the T fit had more adjustment range like the glide lock on the explorer, then I'd have no complaints
@@perolito83 yeah right on. my criticism was that they didn't include a couple half or 3/4 links for finer adjustment and that they couldve learned from their mistake with the regular bb 58.

Thanks for the comment and suggestion! I feel like theres never enough shots. I'll keep that in mind next time
Thank you for your review! Was wondering on the brassy/metallic smell that would go along with owning this watch!

Fun video! Never heard of using denture cleaners for watches, let alone a bronze watch. Interesting stuff.
Thank you! It works well if your watch has enough water resistance
Nice video dude. Beautiful watch, that bronze case is killer. Will be super interesting to see how that case changes color over time!
Thank you!
Algorithm brought me here
Praise the algorithm xd
Very good retrospective Dillon
you can wax it apparently...stops the oxidisation. Need to re-apply every few months. This is on my list if my stocks ever recover :)
I feel that hahaha I did hear about waxing bronze but I'm a fan of the patina so will not be doing that. Thanks for the comment :)
Nice watch review. Thank you!
Hi..what brand of dental cleaner that you used? And how long do you soak it? Do you use toothbrush to clean it?
Hey, sorry if it's not helpful but I don't really remember the brand name. I'm pretty sure any "denture cleaner" will do it. Didn't use a tooth brush to clean it. I actually soaked it multiple times, it won't hurt the watch
Okay..how long do you soaked it each time? Just got mine today and preparing myself to clean it up another few months 😄
Btw your video its easy for me to understand and really helps..just me who want to know the detail 😁
@@mohamadfirdaus5296 hahah thank you! I believe every time I did 15-30 minutes, rinsed it off, and repeated until I felt like it wasn't doing anything

Great job, Dillon! I learned a lot about this watch. Looking forward to more reviews from you!
Keep an eye on the bracelet. I have had mine since Feb and the bracelet will actually seize up from time to time on the none removeable links.
Seize up?
@@mgcdillon yeah the links will stick and not articulate.
@@jmac316 o huh that's concerning. Thanks for letting me know.
@@jmac316 maybe it's just a matter of cleaning it tho?
@@mgcdillon rinsing the bracelet in water frees them up however store the watch and it'll seize back up again.
Use ketchup! Give it a good lathering, wait 5 minutes, wash it off and voila.
what size is your wrist?
6.5 in
COSC is -4 to +6
More watch content! Subbed.
Sexiest watch in ten years
That’s a great review! I also made a review on my channel if you are interested 👍
Thanks! I watched your review before purchasing mine actually haha
@@mgcdillon Oh really? That's cool! Thanks for watching my video

@@mgcdillon it sounds like you'd have the same issue with a regular 58 and a half link though.
