Tudor Black Bay Bronze 79250BA Automatic
A distinctive interpretation of Tudor's modern dive watch, the Black Bay Bronze combines the familiar Black Bay design language with an oversized bronze case that develops an individual patina as it ages.
Reference 79250BA features a substantial 43 mm bronze case with a satin finish, paired with a unidirectional rotating bronze bezel and matte anodized aluminum insert. The warm bronze case contrasts with the domed dial, oversized luminous hour markers, signature Snowflake hour hand, and vintage-inspired detailing characteristic of the Black Bay collection.
Inside is Tudor's manufacture caliber MT5601, a COSC-certified automatic movement featuring a bidirectional winding rotor, silicon balance spring, stop-seconds function, 28,800 vibrations per hour frequency, and approximately 70 hours of power reserve.
The watch is equipped with a screw-down bronze crown bearing the Tudor rose, a domed sapphire crystal, and a 200 meter factory water-resistance rating. The bronze case is paired with a bronze-colored PVD-treated steel caseback, helping limit direct bronze contact with the wrist.
This example is particularly well preserved and remains in near mint condition. The crystal and bezel are exceptionally clean, the case shows no notable impact marks or scratches, and the strap and buckle display essentially no visible wear. The bronze has begun developing a natural patina, though it remains in the early stages due to the watch having seen very limited wrist time.
The watch is accompanied by its outer box, presentation box, user manual, warranty booklet, warranty card, and original Tudor tag.

Condition
This watch is in near mint pre owned condition with extremely limited signs of previous wear.
The bronze case is exceptionally well preserved with no notable impact marks, dents, or scratches observed during inspection. The case retains its original surface definition and satin finishing.
A natural bronze patina has begun developing across the case. The patina remains relatively light and early in its development, consistent with a watch that has received minimal wrist time. This natural oxidation is characteristic of bronze and will continue developing uniquely with wear and environmental exposure.
The bezel is exceptionally clean with no notable damage or significant markings. The sapphire crystal appears clear and free from visible scratches or chips.
The dial, hands, luminous markers, and printed elements remain extremely well presented.
The strap shows essentially no visible wear, tearing, or significant creasing. The buckle is similarly clean with no notable scratches.
The watch is presented in running condition at the time of inspection, with winding, time setting, and automatic functions operational.
The included outer box, inner presentation box, user manual, warranty booklet, warranty card, and original tag are all present. The packaging is also in excellent to mint overall condition.
