Bremont Watch Company introduces new ALT1-C/PW classic polished chronograph
Further to the success of the ALT1-C Rose Gold in 2013 Bremont is pleased to introduce the new ALT1-C/PW classic polished chronograph. As with the rose gold model, this classically designed timepiece is based on the iconic ALT1-C collection, whilst taking design cues from the Victory Limited Edition, released in 2012, which incorporated original material from HMS Victory.
Bremont Watch Company introduces new classic polished chronograph into the ALT1-C collection
The ALT1-C/PW is Bremont’s first non-limited edition polished steel watch that will form part of the core collection and will only be produced in limited numbers each year. As with the core collection timepieces, this polished steel case will undergo a similar hardening treatment, providing high impact resistance but still retaining its polished surface finish. The signature coating gives the watch case extreme hardness, excellent toughness, good wear and high impact fatigue resistance; it is as such used widely in the aerospace industry.
Giles English, Co-Founder Bremont ;
“Having seen such a fantastic response to the ALT1-C Rose Gold, and with our classic collection being a bestselling range for Bremont, we felt it was fitting to further add to this line with a new polished steel version. This is also the first time we have ever used our hardening process on a polished case.
The ALT1-C timepieces are particularly popular due to the timeless design and the polished steel was very well received with the Victory model. As such we feel the introduction of this elegant dress watch will add a new dimension to the range. Like the rose gold model, the case boasts more rounded edges, a white dial and more traditional numerals and hands.”
As with all Bremont watches this COSC rated model will be manufactured at Bremont’s watchmaking facility in Henley-On-Thames, UK. The ALT1-C/PW will be available to purchase from authorised retailers from November 2014.
