Baselworld2015: Bremont Boeing Titanium GMT models

Pinterest LinkedIn Tumblr +

Last year Bremont announced a partnership with Boeing, the famed aircraft manufacturer.  For 2015, Bremont continues this partnership with the introduction of 2 models.  Introducing the Bremont Boeing Titanium GMT models.

Through the partnership with Boeing, a world leader in material research, Bremont now works closely with The Advanced Material Research Centre with Boeing (AMRC) at the University of Sheffield.

The clean design of the Model 1 timepiece reflects the early simplicity of Boeing’s very first aircraft
design whilst the Model 247 was inspired by Boeing’s progressive twin-engined Model 247 airliner from the 1930s.

The Bremont Boeing Model 1 and Model 247 Titanium GMT timepieces,  are 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.

Designed for absolute clarity and legibility, white SuperLumiNova® hands stand out against a black (Model 1) or dark grey (Model 247) base dial with highly visible applied indexes also using SuperLumiNova®. The signature Boeing ‘tick’, a nod to the aerospace company’s logo, can also be found at the end of the centre seconds (Model 1) and chronograph seconds (Model 247) hands.
