Very nice. I like the watch as well as the new Norton Cafe Racer.
Ok.......new arrival........I'll let my poor photography do the talking.
Very nice. I like the watch as well as the new Norton Cafe Racer.
Nice collection you got there!!!
Lovely! congrats - the Norton is defo one of their most underrated models...
Looks like Bremont will be getting more attention as they've just signed a multiple store contract with Beaverbrooks :shock: :shock:
Jesus , many more posts like this and I'm halfway to becoming a Bremont apologist
Good luck everybody. Have a good one.
That looks really good. Hope you enjoy it over the weekend.
That's a nice collection you have there. Cool bike
Very nice indeed, I like all three.
You need to update your signature to reflect your recent arrival! 8)
I love everything about it apart from the Norton branding. As a non-motorcyclist, nevermind not owning a Norton, I'd feel a bit soft wearing it. At least it doesn't have the negative connotations of a Ferrari/Panerai or Ferrari/GP. Enjoy - it's a lovely piece.
Nice Bremonts. I do like the dial design on the Norton. Must admit I hadn't seen that model before.
regards,
Nick
Unless you´ve ever had to commute on a Norton :wink:Originally Posted by Optimum
The two positive things about it:
- you become a practical survival mechanic
- mine had a Smith chronometric which was a crash course in horology gear boxes:
Very classy piece and great dial.
One of the nicest chrono's i've seen for a while!
Daddel.
Got a new watch, divers watch it is, had to drown the bastard to get it!
wow - you've gone into Bremont in a big way!
And it's in the classic JPS colours of the rotary racers.
They used to sound amazing

Congrats - there was a *slightly* larger Norton that went with that watch...

Love the Bremont Come and Go :wink:
Beautiful looking watch, wear it in good health(obviously in rotation with it's bretheren).
Lovely Bryan - a Bremont is on my hit list, probably an MBII or one of the pilot chrono's...
Enjoy it!
Cheers,
Rob
Cool watch and collection. 8)
The more I see of Bremont, the more I admire their casework - the detailing sets them apart from many of the less adventurous designs.
The Supermarine is my favourite of the three.
Congratulations, very nice collection.
I was at the UK Border Agency the other day and noticed the guy waiting (and waiting, and waiting...) in front of me had an orange MBII. I was surprised by how instantly recognizable it was.
Well done with the Norton, how many pieces are there of that one?
what a wonderful watch - enjoy :)
Loved those old Nortons. Watching Ron Haslam hustle them round the track was brilliant. Lovely new watch as well. Congratulations.
All three look super! The Norton is probably the nicest.
Only 200, when i first saw one a Goodwood its didn't really grab me, but.......its a grower.Originally Posted by adesmith
ALL I CAN SAY IS WOW !!!
The Bremont Norton is a beautiful watch, but way beyond the means of your average man on the street. The colour scheme, Norton logo and usual Bremont quality case, etc = a stunner
The SM500 is still top of my 50th birthday wish list, but plenty time to change my mind yet.
Love the Norton!
Congrats on hitting the hat-trick of 3 Bremonts!
Bremont keep growing and with their new models coming this year I think I may be adding a white Solo to join my SM 500 and MB II.
Yep, looking forward to seeing the white Solo too. Heard most of the new stuff at Basel should be appearing in June - fingers crossed.Originally Posted by paw3001
That were post modern reïncarnations. ´Old´ Nortons end with the Commando.Originally Posted by nellyh
Also only on the british isles were the rotary Nortons given leeway in the regulations.
I never heard about connection between Bremont and Norton.
But I love both brands separately. Any link to more information about their connection?
