The Oris looks 'cleaner' to me. Between the two I think it is the better looking piece, although I'm not actually a huge fan of the bronze bezel.

Tudor for me. Prefer the dial colour and contrast between the brown bezel and bronze case. Strap looks better too, but that's moot as you can always change it.

TBB for me any day of the week.

If you were thinking of going cheaper though, have you seen the new Steinhart Ocean One Bronze?

Tudor for me too, I'm very tempted myself I must say and although I don't want a leather strap (nor fabric) the fact the watch will age with patina appeals immensely for me.

Tudor for me too. Don't put any weight on the time to get it, your previous one has done you 20 years so another 6 weeks won't hurt!

I am out in Singapore at the moment, loads of watch shops. I saw a few posters advertising that Tudor and it really does look pretty stunning, few other nice models in that line up as well.

Another vote for Tudor. In that picture, the Oris looks closer to a particularly-nasty rose gold.

I have a bronze (brass!) Magrette which I've posted pics of several times and I absolutely love it. Not ruling out adding the Tudor to the watch box, although when I went to look at the Pelagos, I was slightly underwhelmed. Hope this wouldn't be the same.

Tudor, despite the fact I hate the 3,6,9 markers. Why on earth it couldnt match the other Bay models is beyond me!

I prefer the look of the Oris, but the Tudor will be better made? Both quite nice.

Really?

Pretty shocked at how badly my Tudor has faired over the last 3 years. Certainly not a patch on the Breitling I wore daily for 20 years.
