In 2010 Bremont was commissioned to produce a unique global timer chronometer for the military C-17 Globemaster crew around the world. The watch is certainly one of the more intricate and complicated military watches ever produced. Design features of the Bremont C-17 include the etched globe on the dial and a Roto-ClickÒ bezel that enables the user to work out the global time zones using the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) airfield identifiers. Each identifier represents a C-17 landing location in all 24 time zones. The watch itself can show UTC or ‘Zulu’ time through its adjustable 24-hour hand.

Bremont has now developed this ‘Globemaster’ watch as the Bremont World Timer (ALT1-WT) for the civilian

market and produced its first global timer watch for use by pilots and travelers all over the world. Launched in a new Trip-TickÒ case with Roto-clickÒ bezel and a very complex, highly finished dial, the watch has been wonderfully over-engineered. The internal bezel, which is operated by the crown at 8 o’clock, uses a mechanism developed by the company (integrating a series of ball-bearings) that allows the user to turn the bezel with a satisfying ‘click’ for each minute turned.

Please see attached press release and image. For further information, high res imagery or interviews with Nick and Giles please do get in touch. The Bremont World Timer will be unveiled for the first time at Basel from 8th-13th March.
