I was looking at some of these at the weekend, Richard Sintons in Newcastle have up to 30% off them at the moment, eg:-

I have a Martin Baker III with both the rubber and leather strap's. The watch was supplied brand new, boxed and guaranteed by Dominic Hackett who has look after many PH'ers to date:

The watch is well made, feels very comfortable on the wrist and keeps excellent time. Only downside is that it does not appear to react to the watch winder I have so may have to buy another one.........never mind
Price was rather good as well

Have you tried reversing the direction of your winder?Price was rather good as well
Personally I have a lot of time for Bremont. They're doing a great job of cracking a tough market.

I have an MB II and absolutely love it. I work in aviation so love the stories/connection behind each watch and the fact they are different. Also it is so well engineered. I want another one!
Stories I can believe, connections? what connections?They've done a few limited runs on commission, as any 'manufacturer' will do if you pay for it.
If Tony Blair made watches...
Phoney I think sums Bremont up best.
The in-house movement thing really did it for me, they always seemed to be spin over substance, but that really showed who and what they are.
Then with the same watch the video showing the wright brothers house they were helping to restore... only it was not the house in the video. The house they showed, the one of historic importance, is not really in need of support as it has been a museum since before WW11 and is owned & funded by the Henry Ford Foundation.
You have to hand it to AMV BBDO they do a fking good job of spinning the heritage and history message.
