Bremont ALT1-C Griffon

Bremont is a true rarity in the modern timepiece industry.  Independently owned, the company produces incredibly high-quality, purpose-built timepieces in Great Britain with a distinctively aeronautical theme. Utilizing its custom Trip-Tick cases and modified Swiss calibers tuned to Chronometer grade, Bremont's collection showcases the passion for engineering and aviation that the owners, Nick & Giles English, hold close to their hearts. We're suckers for timepieces with soul, and Bremont has it in spades. The ALT1-C Griffon is Bremont’s most versatile pilot’s chronograph. Entirely hand-built at ‘The Wing,’ this piece features a 43mm hardened, stainless steel case with its signature Trip-Tick construction, as well as a domed sapphire crystal, ‘inverted’ chronograph pushers, the hallmark swooping lugs, a large signed crown and a sturdy multi-link steel bracelet equipped with a signed locking clasp.  Vintage inspired and decidedly legible, the matte black, luminous dial features Arabic hour indices, a stealthy date indicator at 6 o’clock, a matching stick handset, a dual register configuration and a central ‘lollipop’ chronograph seconds hand. Powering this robust chronograph is a self-winding Bremont Calibre BE-50AE; an upgraded Valjoux 7750 equipped with 42 hours of power reserve, 25 jewels and a chronometer-certified grade. Accompanied by all its complete set of factory goodies, this piece has all the hallmarks of a Bremont sports watch blending modern and vintage the only way Bremont can. A distinguished gentleman needs a distinguished watch — this ALT1-C chronograph, or any Bremont for that matter — is exactly that!
