5 things you need to know about Bremont, the brand 'bringing watchmaking back to Britain'

[@westleygreenhalf2338]

I am increasingly keen on getting a Bremont watch. I hope to visit the boutique when in London over the summer.

[@andyt6819]

Why didn’t they mention the secret club?

[@davidmeier8860]

Such a nice video and story on the brand. Well done lads.

[@Timeandtidewatches]

Thanks David, largely due to Nick's charm I suspect - Andrew

[@greghodges3153]

Fantastic story! Thanks for shedding some light on the brand.

I got my SOLO-37 on bracelet for $1750USD used. Simply gorgeous..

[@hendragouw451]

Like it or not, u must admire new brands(without rich history) like nomos and bremont... they really try to create their own history and path... not easy, maybe can take decades, but they both doin into the right directions..

[@thefreshestprince89]

Hendra Gouw and they have to fight against the watch community always preferring "provenance".

I hope more people read this comment. :D

Good luck lads, I'm a fan of the Bremont range.

[@sureshobhan]

Super cool story...felt like a movie theme...

[@varunu4176]

Very cool niche story for a brand whose designs are quite unique. I hope they try marketing their product differently. I'm not a fan of their watches using airplane canvas or a piece of a vintage rare material which drives up the production cost. Learn from Tudor, they were reasonable purchases even before they made in-house movements.

[@deltropico7]

The day Bremont powers their watches with in-house movements (for real) I'll bite. Until then, I can't see their value proposition, specially considering Omega's current line up.

[@Zipo6691]

You should listen carefully and then see latest New Watch Editions!

...of overpriced, derivative portacabins on a wrist

[@david300m]

What a great story. Many thanks.

[@samwebmaster6466]

Over priced.... I ll go Oris, Omega, Tudor at that price range

[@PhatNutz]

i enjoyed his story and appreciate you venturing beyond the 5 minute mark. nice work andrew! 👏😁

[@fobudomh]

Long story short Bremont sounds like a good marketing name.

[@mikehydropneumatic2583]

Impressive story. The Frenchies are really nice, I love it in France.

[@benficaM8888]

wow you really asked some uncomfortable questions.. well done..

[@ocbojm]

Expensive ETA movement grade watch, at that price range i will go for Omega.

[@djdc81]

I already have 2 Omegas

[@andyt6819]

No thank you

[@gyang333]

It's weird that an entry level brand like Christopher Ward can buy their way into an in-house movement, but Bremont with their massive margins can't afford to do so.

[@varunu4176]

Maybe watchmaking is a bit more expensive in England than it is in Switzerland.

[@gyang333]

@@varunu4176 Christopher Ward is based in England...

[@varunu4176]

@@gyang333 Yes but aren't they Swiss made unlike Bremont? I was thinking if sourcing the parts and hiring people to work on timepieces is easier and more affordable on Switzerland compared to England. Christopher ward is possibly from England just like Breguet and Rolex is an English company. Correct me if I'm wrong :)

[@gyang333]

@@varunu4176 I am unsure if their SH21 movement watches (in-house movement) says Swiss Made or not (I think they do), but Bremont watches also say Swiss Made on their dials, as the movement comes from ETA/Sellita. The remainder of the watch is assembled in England like Bremont though with obviously cheaper parts and finishing.

[@westleygreenhalf2338]

CW bought SH to achieve in house status. Either way, watchmakers can do quite a lot with an ETA.

[@sbsb4995]

Bremont is over priced. Just too bad. They could have been great.

[@rowdyduterte8476]

I know Bremont through Archieluxury

[@flyingspeedtriple]

Never mind!!

[@rosschops9509]

An embarrassment to Britain.

[@shipmate3577]

I want to like them... but an English watch with a French name is just lame. I'll stick with Christopher Ward. I hope this guy overcomes whatever health problem he is dealing with.
