Boeing Model 247

POA

Bremont Watch releases the Boeing watch range, exclusively using Boeing aeroplane materials that have never before been incorporated in watch manufacture.

    Description

    The Bremont Boeing Model 247 Titanium GMT represents the debut chronograph in the collaboration, named after the first Boeing twin-engine commercial aircraft. The two ‘twin-like’ sub-dials tastefully reflect this inspiration. The Model 247 case is manufactured from Boeing aviation-grade Ti 6-4. This is a special titanium that is significantly stronger than commercial titanium and used widely in both airframes and engine components. l. The hardened case incorporates screw down crowns and chrono pushers, together with an exhibition sapphire crystal case back.

    REINVIGORATING THE BRITISH WATCH INDUSTRY

    It is not completely unexpected to find that the world sets its time by Greenwich and not by Geneva. Whilst Geneva and Switzerland may be producing the vast majority of luxury wristwatches today, this certainly wasn’t always the case. In 1800 half of the world's watches, around 200,000 pieces a year, were produced on British shores by British watchmakers, which is an incredible statistic. Another wonderful statistic is that probably over 60-70% of the innovation in a modern day mechanical watch has come from Britain, including every major escapement design. Bremont's mission has always been to play a part in bringing back watchmaking to British shores.
