Hey Guys - one of Bremont's partners is Charlie Boorman - actor, motorcycle enthusiast, travel guy. The Skirt and I just watched Long Way Round and Long Way Down, and are now watching By Any Means: Ireland to Sydney. Bremont watchspotters will particularly enjoy the latter two. Highly recommended!

Re: Charlie Boorman
Thanks, Tony. I've seen a view quick bits of his on YouTube - he's an interesting cat and has good taste in watches, too
Re: Charlie Boorman
I've seen the first two you mentioned and loved them... Didn't know there was a third... Will have to check it out.AntonioPD wrote:Hey Guys - one of Bremont's partners is Charlie Boorman - actor, motorcycle enthusiast, travel guy.

My favorite part of their trip had to be in Siberia on the road of bones.

Re: Charlie Boorman
Agreed, good movies.
Charlie also competed in one of the last Dakar's held in Africa and got hurt there. But stuck around. He's serious about motorbikes. :-)

Re: Charlie Boorman
Apparently he's made a name for himself filming these kinds of shows and has quite a few out there. We found the first two on NetFlix and the others on YouTube.

Not sure about Charlie, but I believe Ewan is wearing an Alt1C for Long Way Down. Gray / Silver versionkempoman wrote:Any idea which model those 2 gentlemen wore for the ride?

I doubt anyone ever made an interesting movie while wearing a Steinhart (or whatever).

Re: Charlie Boorman
I believe Charlie wore an ALT1-Z in the Long Way series, and a Supermarine S500 in the By Any Means shows.
