Absolutely LOVE this watch, but just considering a change.
Bremont's diver, the Supermarine 500, maintains the Bremont aviation DNA by encasing the beautifully finished chronometer tested movement in an anti-magnetic Faraday cage. Also protecting the BE-36AE movement is a patented anti-shock case mount. The Supermarine's case is 43 mm in diameter providing water resistance to 500 metres (although tested to way beyond these depths) and a sapphire bezel offers extraordinary luminosity in low light conditions. The case also has an automatic helium escape value for professional diving requirements.
Movement: Modified calibre 13 1/4" BE-36AE automatic chronometer, 25 jewels, glucydur balance. Anachron balance spring, Nivaflex 1 mainspring, 28,800 bph, 38 hour power reserve, Bremont moulded and skeletised decorated rotor.
Functions: Hour/minute/second, date and day at 3H.
Case: Stainless steel case with sapphire uni-directional rotating bezel. Case diameter 43mm, lug width 22mm. Inner soft iron anti-magnetic Faraday cage to protect movement.
Protective patented anti-shock movement mount. Case steel is hardened to 9000 vickers, the same hardness as a sapphire crystal!
Case back: Stainless steel screw-in and decorated case back.
Bezel: Sapphire uni-directional rotating bezel with SuperLumiNova luminous coating.
Dial: Black dial with applied indexes. SuperLumiNova coated indexes and hands.
Crystal: Domed anti-reflective, scratch resistant sapphire crystal.
Water resistance: Water resistant to 50 ATM, 500 metres.
Strap/Bracelet: Stainless steel bracelet.
Certification: Individually serial numbered with accompanying C.O.S.C certification.
Overall 95% condition, slight signs of wear present, nothing outrageous as you can see in the pics. Boxes, papers, all links, etc. $5800+ retail.
Will consider all trade offers for comparable value watches. My preferences lean toward 41-45mm, on bracelet, swiss movement, other than that, very open mnded. Let me know what you have!
Email with questions/offers and thanks for looking!
