Chris. Longines Legend diver with dark green dial in bronze, with no date and twin compressor crowns. 42mm l28224562 automatic with 65 hours power reserve on a slightly de-turned from 28800 vph. Also Oris big crown 80th anniversary edition.
Another great vid, thanks for posting. I’ve never owned a bronze watch, but that is something I’ll have to rectify this year, for sure, I love how they patina. Maybe the Glycine, it’s beautiful and affordable, but the Zelos with the blue dial looks gorgeous too. If I could afford the Zenith Flyback, I’d want to wear it back to front, just so I could gaze at that spectacular movement.
Legend diver bronze is easily the nicest bronze watch on the market. I could've bought a way more expensive piece but the lld was my favourite so it was the one I got. It's stunning in person, no video or picture does it justice imo.
Great show, I’ve always wanted a bronze watch like the Panerai but couldn’t afford it ever. Your taste in watches are similar to my own. The Christopher Ward dial looks like it’s actually a textured bronze dial itself . Not sure but it’d be cool if it were. Great selections and reviews👍thanks.
If they didn’t start the large watch craze, they certainly put fuel to that fire. I think they’re largest watch is 63mm. Imagine lugging that on your wrist all day😖
I had to look a few of these up and my god these are heavenly watches that Oris watch and that Christopher Ward watch really popped and stood out to me great video man!
I’m a “check the box” collector and a bronze watch is one of those boxes I’d like to check eventually. Still looking for the right one though, so this video definitely helps!
I also appreciate Bronze watches and have been looking for an affordable one for more than 20 years. Your review is commendable for including watches from a wide price range. However (here comes the ding) Watch officianados are eschewing function for fashion and complication. To me the end goal of a watch, particularly a dive or pilot watch, is accuracy. 'And you can't beat solar powered quartz movements for accuracy, reliability, compactness, affordability, low maintenance, and power reserve. The only things you don't get is the classic bronze case, workmanship, and presentation. So why spend resources on 100 year old technology? You may as well be reviewing pocket watches, hour glasses, or sun dials.
I get the idea of the big crown on that IWC Big Pilot, as you explained it. But in real world wearability, I can’t imagine it not getting snagged on just about everything and very possibly getting damaged. And even damaging the internals since it is directly connected to them. Hard pass.
My favourite bronze watch is the Oris Big Crown Pointer Date 80th Anniversary. The bronze works so well with dial colour.

Nice selection! Maybe you could do a titanium version someday? (Doesn't have to be the top, just some interesting ones)

Just saw the new Carl Brashear with the 401 in-house movement, pretty damn nice with a 5 day reserve!
Not worth the asking price imo
Picking up that exact Zelos Mako on the weekend. Fantastic watches for the money!

Great video mate!
Dude, did you get the Zelos with the bronze bracelet in the end? Did you do a video on it too?
I have that tudor tobacco colored watch. It is a very nice watch. Hope you get some enjoyment out of it.
Just purchased a Tag Heuer autavia in bronze. I absolutely love it.
Thanks and IWC UTC bronze great one as well
The coolest bronze watch in my opinion is Urwerks T-Rex. They used bronze carved out to look like scales on a T-Rex.
Vostok Amphibia bronze!
I think Invicta started the large watch craze !
The package is on the way will be there Thursday 👍

Although they are all sold out the Laventure sous marine bronzos are wonderful pieces
Bronze is the new gold and are amazing to look at. Every collector should have at least one bronze watch. Cheers!
Stay well everybody! I love Ventus Mori and Ventus Northstar
You need to check out the Glycine Airman Bronze GMT!!!!
I'm happy with my 300 $ bronze 42mm mechanic watch tachometer and my titanium with stainless steel watches ⌚
I had to look a few of these up and my god these are heavenly watches that Oris watch and that Christopher Ward watch really popped and stood out to me great video man!
Great vid, only thing with that 1st Zenith I hate the mismatch fonts between dial and the bezel.
I like bronze watches at their original state, later on ... who knows?.
That Panerai is nasty cool.😎 Great choices man.
Captain cook by rado in green , beautiful looking watch

Glycine combat sub gmt gl0318
For the money, Christopher Ward. COSC certified plus it looks great and has the best strap options and good dive capabilities.
Nice watches. Just pledged to a more affordable bronze watch by Aerotec. Hopefully it isn’t a bust. I do like your selections.
You forgot to mention INVICTA when talking about large watches !
I just bought the Glycine combat GLO 324 Bronze . Might just be the best bargain out there .
What do you think of the new IWC Spitfire Utc Bronze? I like that it’s 41mm. What I’m trying to find out is how will it hold it’s value?
Longines LEGEND diver 42 Bronze⚡️..Beat All of these☝️……
cant believe Longiness leyend diver did not make it into your list
The first bronze watch is from Gerald Genta Gefica Safari back in 1980s.
You miss the Tah Heuer bronce. The red dial is awesome.
Great review. So good I went to Ashford and got the Glycine with a 10% off coupon. Darn you! I thought I was done buying for awhile
Lol 360$ right??? I was looking at the same watch!!!
It was 400 before the 10%
$332 with tax. Free shipping
I got the wrong one. I have to call them. I ordered the gl0186
I have Tudor BB B 39 and BB B Chocolate 43.

I want a Christopher Ward Triden C60 in blue. Zelos are NEVER in stock.
An update is required. Since there are many mainstream bronze watches between 1000-2500
Can you give a few examples of these?
My favorite is the meistersinger metris 39
I enjoyed the video simply because I love watches. However, no matter how hard I try, bronze just has never interested me.

The Baltic Aquascape in Bronze looks very sexy!
First bronze watch was made by Gerald Genta.
What the hell happened to the Kontiki LE
Panerai and Tudor wins
You forgot the Baltic?
Why would a watch be made in bronze, but not brass?
Bronze is nautical, stong, out-doorsy... very classy
Are there any bronze dress watches out there? 🤔
The brooklyn watch company makes the brooklyn gent in bronze
@@WatchChris niiiiiiice. 38mm too! Lovely
Panerai😍😍
Did your fake Tudor come with box and papers? I’m worried mine is fake please answer
I don't remember to be honest
