Bremont ALT1-C Rose England Rugby Watch Unveiled!
Thursday - 30 January 2020
Just this morning, Bremont unveiled the new Bremont ALT1-C Rose England Rugby watch as they become the Official Timing Partner to both England Rugby and Twickenham Stadium. This new five year partnership celebrates both establishment’s shared values of durability, precision and technical ability.
“Timing is key in rugby, so it’s great to have Bremont on board with England Rugby, supporting the game as the Official Timekeeper.” - Eddie Jones, Men’s England Head Coach
As part of the partnership, Bremont will be providing all of Twickenham stadiums with official Bremont time-related match day content including match clocks that will feature all around the arena. Plus, just in time for the Guinness Six Nations 2020, Bremont will be producing a series of special edition mechanical chronometers designed for both fans and players.
Starting the line-up of Bremont England Rugby watches is the breathtaking Bremont Rose watch based on their legendary ALT1-C collection. Where the brand typically showcases their home of ‘London’ at 6 o clock on the dial, they have now aptly printed ‘England. The dial also beautifully commemorates the sport with a subtly embossed symbol of the England Rose on each of the subsidiary dials. The symbol is suitably paired with blue steel hands and a contrasting red chronograph seconds hand as a nod to the St George’s Cross.
Turn the brushed stainless steel chronograph over and you are greeted to a breathtaking exhibition case back. On the oscillating rotor, the words “SWING LOW” tribute the Twickenham anthem besides a gold engraving of the English Rose. The movement beneath the sapphire crystal case back is the Bremont BE-50AE automatic winding movement, a 25 jewelled COSC certified Swiss made calibre which provides a power reserve of 42 hours, a date window at 6 o clock, central hands for hours, minutes and chronograph seconds and two subsidiary dials for 30 minutes chronograph counter and continuous seconds.
“As we’re bringing more and more of our manufacturing capabilities over to the UK and have long since been training up our own workforce of watchmakers on British shores, we welcome the chance to support another English institution, particularly in the run up to the RFU’s 150th anniversary in 2021. Rugby is an incredibly tough sport, steeped in English tradition. Seeing Bremont timekeeping preside over the action at the iconic home of British Rugby, Twickenham, is something rather special.” - Giles English, Co-Founder of Bremont
The 43mm stainless steel case of the Bremont ALT1-C Rose England Rugby watch is designed using the British manufacturer’s famous Trip-Tick construction alongside a scratch resistant DLC treated case barrel. To match the case back, sapphire crystal glass is used to protect the white metal dial while a screw down crown provides a water resistant rating of 100 metres. The timepiece is available on either a stainless steel bracelet and folding clasp or a blue nubuck leather strap with a stainless steel pin buckle. The Bremont Rose watch is also presented in a special leather wallet with a matching blue and red stitch and an embossed English Rose to match the aesthetic of the timepiece.
