    contrary to MrBanks reply to your comment which didn't answer the question, the Bremont official line is that they will be servicing the ENG300 movement indefinitely.

    there never used to be but times may have changed. I know a local AD had to buy in their models direct from Bremont, whatever they had on display, they had purchased. Of course in current times, the...

    I think that the colour is one of the best but the car is a bit naff. Like you say, great that we all have different tastes. ;-)

    on the face of it I would agree. There again, there can be ulterior motives for investors that the general public might not know about. Then of course, we really don't have a clue what Bremonts...

    Polestar don't seem to be doing too well either. Seems like an unlucky choice of logo! (to be fair, Polestars logo is nothing like Bremonts new logo)

    you don't take a salary?

    as a business owner you must know that you don't need to make a net profit to have an income and potentially a large one at that.
