A choice we can defend in person.
Bremont has built British tool watches since 2002, when Nick and Giles English set out in Henley-on-Thames to make pilot and field watches that are robust, tested and honest about their job. We carry the Terra Nova collection because it reads early military instruments faithfully, without affectation.
This Power Reserve reading pairs a blue gradient dial with a bi-directional compass bezel, a running seconds at nine and a power reserve at six, all in faceted pencil hands of clear vintage provenance. The 904L steel cushion case and gloved-hand crown keep it field-true, the articulated steel bracelet adding comfort. It suits a wearer who wants navigation and reserve read at a glance.
Hand-finished, made to be serviced.
The Modified Calibre 11 1/2”’ BE-79AL carries 31 Jewels jewels, 38-hour of power reserve, beating at 28,800bph (4Hz).
Servicing is organised through us and the manufacture, and the watch comes back to your wrist — with a loaner in the meantime.

A relationship, not a transaction.
Every watch we sell stays close to us. We organise servicing, source straps, and answer the telephone ourselves — for as long as the watch is yours, and the wrist after that.
When the time comes, we arrange the full service through Bremont, handle the shipping both ways, and put a loaner on your wrist while you wait.
Replacement straps and bracelets at cost, in any material the manufacture offers, fitted in person at the bench.
You speak to Jason — for a warranty question, a service interval, or simply a second opinion — for as long as you own the watch.
When your watch is at service we will put another independent on your wrist, so the wrist is never empty.
Hold it once. Turn it over.
A watch makes more sense in the hand than on a screen — particularly through the sapphire back. Book a viewing at 900 West Hastings St., Vancouver and we will put a loupe in your hand.
