As the inventor of the ejection seat and supplier to over 80% of the Western worlds’ air forces, Martin-Baker is at the pinnacle of British engineering. The new partnership combines Martin-Bakers’ knowledge of testing, materials and design with Bremont’s watchmaking skills. The goal is to challenge conventional mechanical watch design, by applying to it the standards which determine the integrity of a device that truly define ‘a matter of life and death’.A combined Bremont/Martin-Baker team has been formed to design and test the new watch, to be called the MBI. Although the movement will be assembled at Bremont’s atelier in Switzerland, all final assembly of the watches will take place in the UK. The MBI will be Bremont’s first ‘Made in Britain’ wristwatch. Annual production will be very limited. Watch comes with both canvas and leather strap.
