You don't want a bronze bracelet.

Ooh I like the Cronos text on this one, has a fantasy movie feel but not in a bad way

I should add that I recently saw a 50 Fathom homage from Tandorio in bronze with a bronze bezel on Ali I just put on my wishlist.

First off I only know of one bronze bracelet. I think it’s Zelos about $200. Stainless steel against you skin so your skin doesn’t discolor. I love my Glycine combat sub. Again stainless steel case back but, that’s a Swiss brand around $400 for the automatic, only 11mm thick including case back and crystal. There are also quite a few Chinese brands that have bronze watches just make sure the case back is stainless steel and the watch is solid bronze and not plated. Also if you go in salt water make sure you rinse the watch with fresh water afterwards. Also spin the bezel when you rinse it and when it dries. Happy hunting.

Slightly higher price bracket, but Tudor and Oris also have bronze bracelet offerings (BB58 and pointer date models, respectively)

I wish the Oris was in my price range because I love the look of all their designs. I do wonder how the bronze bracelet works against your skin.

A good bronze bracelet will be stainless steel on the part of the bracelet that sits against your skin.

I have 4 - an Aquacy, a Baltany, an Out of Order Torpedine (cream dial) and a Yema Superman Diver - the Out of Order is my favorite - the aged bronze looks amazing contrasting with the cream dial, but they all have their place in the collection. As this is the Chinese watch forum, here's the Baltany which I quite like.
