lol the nato strap has a tear already
Doesn't look like a tear, just gathered because of the spring bar.

That said, getting a Gen Nato for this release seems impossible thanks to the limited production and exclusive retail.

My question is, is it really a Bronze case? Look at the description, "1:1 replicated bronzo case, same color as genuine" It doesn't exactly say it's 100% Bronze. If it's heavier than a brick shit house, then we will know. :)

I have the Tudor Heritage Black Bay Bronze V6F 1:1 Best Edition on Brown Leather Strap A2824 V3. It is bronze but doesn't change color like the Pam Bronzo. Here is the thread. The members chat a lot about the color and the bronze material. I ended up buying the V6F version. The watch is rather nice. I will order the Blue from V6F again.

It's not 100% bronze but then again, neither is gen. It uses an alu-bronze alloy to have slower and more evenly forming patina. The v1 of the original black bay bronze had this all wrong and gathered rather splotchy copper colored patina. V2 got it right and I would imagine this is the same alloy based on the pics but only time will tell...

Thanks Bigred7078! Very helpful. I was looking at the case back and noticed it was plated but that might just be the case back?

XF wins imho. I've already approved my QCs and now will wait patiently [emoji51].

Nice catch, yes the case back is indeed a bronze pvd finish (I believe the gen is the same). This is so the bronze doesn't sit directly on your skin and cause marks due to the patina.
