LONGINES LEGEND DIVER Bronze Automatic (42mm) Green Dial / Brown Leather + Green NATO L37741502
With modern-day precision and stylish retro design, this watch is a must-have for any diving enthusiast; but especially the stylish ones! The gradient green dial exhibits painted Arabic numerals and indexes as well as pink hands. For optimal readability, these feature a Swiss Super-LumiNova coating. At first glance, this watch is distinctive because of its two crowns and internal rotating bezel. However, the star of the show is its 42mm bronze case with a titanium case back. Developing a unique patina over time, the case acts as a personal reflection of the wearer’s life; and what they get up to throughout it. A Longines exclusive L888 calibre automatic movement, with a 72-hour power reserve, powers this tool watch. Beating at 25’200 vibrations per hour, and with a silicon balance spring, it ensures great precision. A brown leather or green NATO strap secures the watch; the choice is yours.
With its timeless design and cutting-edge performance, this Longines is equally at home on land as it is underwater. Hence, it makes total sense that it is one of our best bronze watches for 2024.
Casio G-Shock Bluetooth Full Metal 2100 Series Bronze Toned Watch GM-B2100GD-5AER
From bezel to bracelet, the full-metal construction creates a streamlined, minimalist design. It also protects the watch from impact when dropped. Reminiscent of the 1983 original, all done in metal, the watch exhibits bronze-tone baton indices and matching hands with a Neobrite coating. High-density mounting keeps the dual display dial slim, while still providing the advanced functions of a Casio G-Shock. A high-brightness LED light, daily alarms, and a hand shift function but to name a few. Toughened and able to withstand most scratches, mineral glass encases the dial. Not only does this glass provide great durability, but clarity too. Saving both time and money, as the battery never needs changing, a solar-powered movement powers the watch. Designed for a secure hold, a one-touch three-fold bracelet concludes the full-metal design.
Rather than using bronze in its alloy form, this Casio G-Shock plays with bronze-coloured ion-plated stainless steel. A unique patina will not develop over time, so this watch could be better suited to those who want something that will look the same in years to come.
Maurice Lacroix Pontos S Diver Bronze Limited Edition (42mm) Blue Dial / Blue Vintage Leather + Blue Rubber PT6248-BRZ0B-430-4
A timeless combination of blue and bronze, this watch lends an antique look to your wrist. The grain-textured blue dial features luminous bronze-framed baton indices as well as luminous bronze hour, minute and second hands. The dial also features an outer minute marker ring and a date aperture at 6 o’clock. Warm yet eminently cool, a 42mm bronze case frames the dial. Due to the properties of bronze, the case may develop a natural patina over time. Moreover, a second crown features at 2 o’clock. To measure elapsed time underwater, it operates the blue internal rotating bezel. Equipped with the automatic ML115 calibre, and with up to 300 metres of water resistance, this Pontos S Diver is ideal for daily wear. A vintage blue leather strap secures the watch to the wrist. However, if this is not to your taste, the watch also comes with a blue rubber strap.

Measuring 40mm in diameter, a high-grade CuSn8 bronze case, with a sapphire crystal, frames the dial. Due to the nature of bronze, each watch will have a distinct patination and appearance; no two will be the same. The case also features a screw-down crown and a bronze bezel with a ceramic insert. The crown aids the watch’s impressive 300 metres of water resistance. Ensuring both great precision and reliability, a Seiko NH35A automatic movement powers the timepiece.
