3 year warranty
Bremont focuses purely on beautifully made mechanical movements and every watch in our core collection has passed each of the rigorous precision tests necessary for the ISO 3159 chronometer designation. Every movement is finished to the highest levels of craftsmanship and all are guaranteed to within -4 and +6 seconds per day. For this reason Bremont is one of the few watch makers to offer at least a 3-year warranty on every timepiece.

Proudly made in the UK
Great Britain has a wonderful history when it comes to watch making and has probably been the home to more advances in horology than any other nation. Bremont is determined to play a pivotal role in the reinvigoration of this industry on British shores and as a result, Bremont manufactures parts at its Parts Manufacturing Facility and every Bremont is hand-build and tested before leaving the Henley-on-Thames workshop.
Description
The S300 RFU joins a series of Limited Edition mechanical chronometers for both fans and players, celebrating the spirit and tenacity of the England Rugby team. As Official Timing Partner to both England Rugby and Twickenham Stadium, the new timepiece, and indeed the partnership, not only celebrates what it means to be ‘Made in England’ but equally the shared values of durability, precision, and technical ability. The S300 RFU comes in a 40mm iteration and its distinct red, white and blue colour palette has been inspired by the England team kit. The clean white dial features applied indexes, a date window, and a beautifully contrasting sweeping red seconds hand which also nods to the Cross of St. George. Turning the watch over reveals its closed case back stamped with ‘England Rugby – Twickenham’ around the iconic England rose.
Bremont Ambassador and England Rugby player Tom Curry comments, “Bremont's designs, craftsmanship and brand ethos are perfectly aligned with what England Rugby stands for, two institutions that are made in England and both ‘Tested Beyond Endurance’.”

The S300 RFU proudly features a subtly debossed rose detail on the dial. Turning the watch over also reveals its closed case back stamped with ‘England Rugby – Twickenham’ around the iconic England team emblem.
Inspired by the England team kit
The distinct white, blue, and red colour palette has been inspired by the England team kit. A ceramic blue unidirectional bezel beautifully contrasts with the clean white dial and sweeping red seconds hand which also nods to the Cross of St. George.
Trip-Tick Case Construction
As with all Supermarine models, the S300 RFU is built from Bremont’s signature trip-tick case construction and is a robust professional dive watch, very much built for purpose.The iconic 3-piece case design provides durability and distinctive aesthetics with a scratch resistant, DLC treated barrel.
British Made
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.
