Bremont Watch Company, known for their quintessentially British influences has designed a new watch case based on the famous Budget Box. This box, traditionally held up during the photo shoot in front of 11 Downing Street before the Chancellor of the Exchequer announces his annual budget.
The case made by Bremont is an exact replica of the Budget Box, made from pine, lined with black satin and covered with scarlet leather.
The box has been hand made in England and locks on the bottom, just as the Budget box does, which guarantees that it is secure before it is carried. The Bremont box can be custom made to any specification, as well as colour, and can secure up to 10 watches.
The first-ever Budget box, made for William Ewart Gladstone in 1860, was lined with lead to make it bomb-proof and to ensure that it would sink underwater if thrown overboard in the event of capture.
