The listing link I've post yesterday morning
https://fr.aliexpress.com/item/1005004941221238.html
clearly mention CuSn8.
Having a closer took to pics, it seems to be real bronze.
BUT the bezel looks gold plated, which would ruin any patina attempt
they probably made it of steel for the click dents to be more resistant.

(My bronze turtle case has a bronze bezel with a steel insert inside for the click dents.)

Did I see a steeldive 60mm bronze egi, or was it a dream? Gone back in looking for it, cant seem to locate…

Quick review:
First of all the overall impression of the product is very good.
The shape of this new titanium/bronze case launched by Heimdallr is similar to a modern submersible case.
The chapter ring on this case does not appear to be removable. (I haven't actually disassembled the case yet)
The caseback itself is flat and has only one groove on the case side for the waterproof gasket,
which makes me somewhat concerned about waterproofing.

Is it 42mm. Like the description said? My is bronze case but it seem to be only 40mm. Not including the CB.

@Laer
Thank you very much for this detailled review.
Look forward to know if one can get rid of this chapter ring to make room for a bigger dial, but it seems to be monobloc on your photos.
How thick is the bezel insert please? It would be cool with a Mike Horn bezel.

Bronze color looks better on your photo
Is the bezel made of bronze too please?

Pretty nice ageing considering how tricky is to age stainless steel

+1
this black is too even to be true aging,
mosty probably a black PVD sanded IMHO
