50th Anniversary Puma Bremont

[ditchvisitor]

After a long wait this arrived today!! A Bremont designed to commemorate 50 years of the Puma in RAF service, I had a hand in the design of it and am over the moon with how it has turned out. Relatively subtle and well balanced and I really like the Squadron crests on the backZ

Very nice, Ditch.

IIRC, you have an HC2 and a CH-47 Bremont now.

Congratulations and a nice looking watch with a real meaning.
Guess the haters going to hate. But hey.
EnJoY it. Wear with pride.

That's nice, what is the case diameter?

Looks nice. Yet to see a Bremont that doesn’t. Well done.

Looks good that, I’m a fan of the Bremont military editions, they seem to go a bit further than the Breitling special dials.

Glad it arrived before the Puma is retired as well!

Thanks, appreciate it. Unfortunately not so sure I will get to fly the old girl again but who knows, the current OSD is ‘25 so fingers crossed!

42 is an ideal size. Two registers and a monopusher. All good features.
I am thinking of buying one of their newer divers.
But it is hugely disappointing that a Bremont thread has been up for two days and no one has brought up the issue of company’s origination story:-)

Bit special that. Nice one.

Very subtle and classy, I like it.

[Rob777]

That looks fantastic and I'm sure you'll only enjoy it more as time goes by.
I love seeing the Bremont Military editions and how tastefully they are done with the subtle nods to a unit's history or heritage.
I don't think any other brand pulls it off as well.

Is the back cast rather than engraved? If so, that's a nice touch.

That is a handsome watch and a very subtle commemoration piece. Some of the unit watches are really nice. They are always excellent quality.

I’d say the inner was cast and the outer writing engraved/etched.

Ah, yes, that's what I meant. To have the inner part cast, that's definitely a nice touch and must be a more expensive process than everything being engraved.

The case back is stamped and then blasted to get the finish. The lettering around the diameter is a combination of etching and laser engraving.
