Bremont's squadron-only C-17 Globemaster watch

[Noodlefish]

I was invited to SalonQP last night in London, by the organisers, QP Magazine. It was a star-studded affair (see other post) but one of the main draws for me was the first public showing of the C-17 Globemaster.

Apologies for the poor quality of the photos...

It looks very nice indeed - lovely chamfered detail on the sub-dials, beautiful blue dial with "globe" design, Roto-Click 24hr internal bezel.

Just a shame I'll never get to own one!

I didn't think this was going to look as good as it does. They've done a very good job. I want one, too, but good on them for making it available to assigned personnel only. Hopefully they will give us a 3-hand GMT soon! ( are you listening, guys? )

Yeah that's a pretty sweet watch...


I really like the GMT hand much more pronounced then the GMT hand on the ALT1-Z.


Maybe Bremont will do a Globemaster II for the public.

The Globemaster really is a very impressive watch - the 24 hour Roto-clik internal bezel is very pleasing to use. I imagine that this will find it's way into production models in due course...

It is a really lovely watch.
I shall echo the others - it is just a shame they haven't made a version available to the public!

cheers,
Jake.

That blue dial is just beautiful! Great looking watch. Thanks for sharing!

The blue is cool, to be sure. If it were me, though, I'd make the dial a matte green-grey to match the paint scheme on USAF C-17's. IMO that'd look really different and very purposeful.

I think there's a grey dial and a black dial variant. Just waiting for these to ship out to the Squadron and then we'll be able to see!

Hmm..
I'm surprised they didn't do that on this watch, as 99Sqd's C17s carry the same scheme.

cheers,

Very nice. I like it.
