Mosquitos - the good kind!

Every Bremont watch has a story or inspiration, and the ALT1-C is no exception!

This strikes the perfect balance for a two-register chronograph, and Bremont has packaged a wonderful historical homage with a top-shelf chronograph.  And for those who are interested, still the same time rate!




So for those of you not up on your British aviation history, the de Havilland DH.98 Mosquito was used by the British during World War II.


Here is more information from the nice folks at Wikipedia -
