Nice looking thing that, if only a little smaller.

Probably the best Jaguar Bremont i've seen. Really like the detail on the crown.
I find the looks a bit challenging - ok at a glance, but the weird hands that look like a car dashboard are peculiar, and the tyre tread pattern on the crown - well, it’s all a bit Franklin Mint?!?
I have grown to like some Bremont designs but the mish mash of car dial and wristwatch is a bit daft looking imho

That's fine as an opinion, but unusual. The watch world is full of aircraft themed Sinns and Bell & Ross watches (to name but two) that are based on cockpit instruments, so an automotive watch dial based on a car dial is a logical step (and not an unusual either).
I like the new Jag watch, it takes a design they gave used for years a little further with a white dial.
One detail that puzzles me is the grip edge of the fixed tachy bezel.
I commented on the Bremont Fans Facebook that it looked lazy. Just another much of alike Bremont Jaguar 43mm.
This would have been the ideal opportunity to add a 40mm into the Jaguar tie in range . With both british engineering companies, to slip in the new movement too.
Opportunity missed.

Realistically, it wouldn't. You'd have to develop an entire new case to fit the chrono movement (the only other case small enough to fit a 7750 base movement is the Arrow case, which is for MOD based watches and isn't a trip-tick design) and account for design, tooling etc. along with other new components.
