    Bremont Victory Launch

    Just received my invite in the post for the launch of Bremont's new watch, the Victory.

    It's being held on board HMS Victory, at the Naval Base in Portsmouth next week.

    I'm looking forward to seeing these, as I'm already impressed with the online details I've seen.

    Hopefully they won't mind if I take a few photos to post on here when I get back?

    Anyone else going?

    Available in Selfridges

    These are being 'pushed' at Selfridges at £12k for steel or £20k for RG version.

    the sales blurb was along the lines limited edition to 250 pieces each and 'guaranteed' to appreciate and future investment pieces and they are made from bits of Nelson's ship.

    Bit underwhelmed amongst all the other shiny stuff in the Wonder Room!

    Seemed ok but for the money lots of other watches to be tried first.

    I love this kind of stuff, but the price is ridiculous. Far, far too high.

    I have chunks of HMS Victory, including a massive hull pin, and even bits of The Mary Rose. The value of the historic components in the watch is minimal.
    So clever my foot fell off.

    Any links or info on the Longines?

    Not sure but could it be the master collection retrograde?

    Nothing to do with HMS Victory though!

    Hmm.
    That is 8K for say 1K of gold.

    Saw these last week at selfidges,I must say the rose gold is a much better size at 45 mm, but the prices were way over the top 12k for steel and 20k for the gold both have ETA movements ,for that money there are many other options,but I must say I did like the bremont collection it was very impressive.
    Enjoy and please take some pictures of the rose gold.
