Celebrating Stephen Hawking
Together with the Hawking family, Bremont worked hard to create a collection that commemorates the life of the famous British scientist. The watches are designed to represent Hawking’s passion for the study of time and the pursuit of knowledge of the universe.
Another thing that makes this limited-edition collection so special is that each watch has a small piece of Stephen Hawking’s desk inside. A line that is perfect for watch aficionados and history enthusiasts. Bremont has previously designed several family of watches with a little piece of history inside them, so this isn’t new territory for the company. An example is the Bremont Supersonic, which paid homage to the Concorde.
It’s not surprising, then, that Tim Hawking, Stephen Hawking’s son, trusted Bremont to do a wonderful job. In his words: “My father’s work was primarily theoretical. Nevertheless, he was a person who placed great value on precision craftsmanship and the interplay of design and technology.
“This antique desk was a most treasured possession, representing both his grandmother’s pioneering commitment to education, and a portal back to happy childhood memories. The Hawking family are delighted that its legacy may live on further now in the Hawking Bremont timepieces.”
