Decent watches, pleasant non-derivative styling, and outstanding customer service. What's not to like?

If BJ's are included stay tuned for my sales posts, as I'll be an all-Bremont owner.

Before I do that, can someone confirm the BJ's are from girls?

I love this watch, but the Warthog is my all time favorite plane. I'd buy one in a second if I could.

Warthog fanboy? Guilty. Those pilots have brass balls.

Great looking watch. What is the emblem for?

The A-10 Thunderbolt Warthog.

Oh, are you an USAF pilot?

No, I just like the plane.

Oh, do you want to see my Mickey Mouse watch?

How is this different than a Comex-dialed Sub, or even a Milsub? These aren't available to the general public, except on the secondhand market. There's a lot to criticize with Bremont, but this is definitely not on that list.

Never owned one. I have had drinks with Nick English and Mike Pierson though. Great guys I'd be proud to buy a watch from.

Bought one to go with my Ferrari jacket, hat, pants, shoes and socks - I'm neither a pilot or a Ferrari driver :cheers:

How is a unit contacting Bremont and paying their own money to have a commemorative watch made anything like the military commissioned/issued mil-subs or the record setting Comex? When you juxtapose, it makes this current commemorative watch even more hollow. Even the 10,000 Speedmaster commemorative watches have more meaning.

This Bremont is much moe akin to that silly special forces DSSD that someone was trying to hock on the forums six months ago.

I find the Comex and Milsub less pretenious.

For me, it boils down to whether or not I would wear the same unit's tee-shirt in public...which I would not.

The government doesn't buy them. Units contact Bremont, agree to purchase a minimum number, the members use their own money to buy them and then Bremont builds them.
Breitling has a similar program, but it isn't nearly as popular. I know this because I had a patient who organized watches from Bremont and Breitling for 2 of his squadrons.
I'm not sure how everyone doesn't already know this :thumbsup:
Who doesn't already know this? This isn't common knowledge? Bro, maybe go easy and sit out the Bremont threads for a spell. It's obvious they piss you off. Just don't look at this forum.

This^^^^hey aren't the retiring this plane anyway???? Oh I like what I hear about what Bremont does CS wise but the whole LE shit is annoying. At least they aren't doing a Seals, RECON, Marine, SF bull crap.

So. Are these LE watches, or are they commissioned?

One thing I never liked about the JLC NS line was the branding...I never got used to it. That said, I've owned two. The only reason I did/would was because the branding was hidden in the back.

Similarly, I live the new Kobold Mil watch, but the MOS on the dial prevents me from having someone buy me one of grabbing one second hand, to wear.

Jacob, tell us about the time you first realized this deep seeded animosity for a brand that you perhaps haven't owned.....or if you have owned what issues lead you to this level of resentment for a brand.....im curious how they landed on your personal shit list. Most people I know that have owned one seem to have a different view.
