The Bremont SOLO 37mm

Known for their quintessentially British style, attention to detail and very ‘English’ ethos, Bremont Watch Company are fast becoming a force to be reckoned with in the watch industry.

Started a mere ten years ago the company has grown from strength to strength and now offers a core range of watches that appeal to many a budding traveller or adventurer.

Lately they have added to their range the 37mm Solo and as the smallest member of the Bremont family this case size is a first for the brand. Inspired by pilots watches of the 1940’s this smaller version of the original 43mm case watch still encompasses all the features that Bremont is now famous for.

As with all the watches in the Bremont range the SOLO 37mm is housed in a stainless steel Trip Tick® three piece case that has been hardened in the UK to over 2000 Vickers making it over seven times more scratch resistant than normal watch grade steel. Perfect for those who are known to be a little clumsy when it comes to wearing a watch!

The SOLO 37mm is powered by a modified BE-36AE movement that has a 38 hour power reserve and a skeletonised decorated rotor. The dial also has a date window at 3 o’clock. Although smaller than anything Bremont has ever produced before this mechanical chronometer appeals to those who may wish to wear something slightly smaller, and lighter one their wrist… but also it is perfect for us ladies! Especially with the different finishes available.

The SOLO-37 is available with a white dial in all stainless steel or with an 18ct Rose Gold top bezel. The watch also comes with a choice of applied silver or rose coloured indexes. There is also the option of a black dial with white indexes – a perfect match to the black dial 43mm watch so the perfect ‘his and hers’ choice! There is also a choice of coloured straps so you can customise your watch even more to your taste.

Another feature of all the watches in the Bremont range is the domed sapphire crystal which has nine layers of hardened anti-reflective coating on each side; another handy feature should you be wearing your watch whilst taking part in some sort of extreme sport! Water resistant to 100m and complete with exhibition case back this watch really is one to consider if you like your watches a little chunkier than most pieces available for women at the moment. I know I love the vintage feel to this watch and I’m sure it’s bound to be a hit with both men and women.

“One of the core underlying principles of Bremont has always been to produce a watch that in a given price-point cannot be beaten in terms of the quality of engineering used in its construction. The Solo is no exception.”

Bremont pride themselves on precise timekeeping and, as well as using only the highest quality components in their movements, every watch in the collection is chronometer tested and then further subjected to a rigorous quality control programme. Each watch is registered with the company and the owner receives a copy of their individual watch’s COSC certificate.

As if all that wasn’t enough the company has just opened their new headquarters in Henley-on- Thames in Oxfordshire and in a bid to re-establish British watch making in the UK they will be assembling and finishing off many of their pieces there.
