REVIEW: Bremont U-2 Aviator Watch

[@sparkijones]

Thanks for a very comprehensive review, especially including accurate measurements that other reviews miss. It does look fine on your wrist; large but that fits with contemporary styles and the ‘tool’ aesthetic.

What’s the difference between U2 and the MBII

[@dinan4459]

How much was the quote for the crystal

Nice watch, comprehensive video. ⌚️⏱👍

Thanks Bob :-)

Hi Wayne, a quick question unrelated to the Bremont, is the full metal G-Shock gold that you have all polished including the bracelet or is most of the bracelet brushed? I missed out on the original but I’m looking at the recent release of the full metal gold.

[@WatchHobbyist]

Hi Tony, the Gold is all polished :-)

[@tonyholmes198]

@@WatchHobbyist oh bugger, I've just ordered the gold new release and the strap is gold but brushed, thanks for the reply

Where did you get that nice leather watch roll from?

[@elementboy212]

Comes with the watch. I got one when I purchased a squadron specific one back in 2012. Cheers!

The MB1is only available to pilots who've ejected. The MB 2 & 3 are available to anyone.

[@WatchHobbyist]

I'm pretty sure I said that but apologies if not.

Great review. Was considering the watch, but concerned about accidentally moving the inner rotating bezel. I think this review has confirmed my fears.

[@WatchHobbyist]

Sorry that's how it went, but glad my video helped in some way

[@jsarmast]

@@WatchHobbyist hey, it's not your fault, it's Bremont's. lol

[@maynardjoseph]

Nice watch shame about the price

[@FaridHerrera]

Can you give us a ball park figure for the price you were quoted for the crystal, or the actual price if you don't mind sharing.

[@FaridHerrera]

@@Neil.C57510 Sounds rather steep? Then again I don't know all that much about premium watch services.

I had a Bremont MB2. It was a poor timekeeper - I spoke to their customer support people and they told me to wind it up. Wankers. So I sold it and moreover - it would take lots to encourage me to buy another one. Expensive Shitters.

Bremont = extremely overpriced watch. Would rather have a Christopher Ward C60 600 or C65.
