Just found the brand posted elsewhere, nice chronos in 43mm. Opinions?

I really like this chrono:


Bremont ALT1-P black

But these are not bad either:


Bremont ALT1-C silver


Bremont ALT1-C grey

They look pretty good to me. Nice clean design and the chrono though busy in the dial is not overly busy. I like them. ;)

Aren't they a U.K. company? Not sure though.

Just looked them up. Yes, they are a U.K. company. That might explain their terminolgy.

Good looking watches. Like #3 the best. I've seen this brand advertised somewhere else and it caught my attention

Mystery solved...although they are nice looking, they are another brand new (2006) start-up watch company designing "manly" watches that believes the have earned they right to ask $6,000.00 (starting prices) right out-of-the-box!  And yes, they are Certified Chronometer chronographs using modified Valjoux 7754.  Thay also have non-chronographs using modified ETA 2836.

Uh-Oh... did not know about their intended pricing, seems pretty steep, agreed.

BTW: Anybody remembers how much Michael Kobold asked for his first watches?

Nice instrument look to them - agree the chrono with internal bezel is a little busy, but the other are pretty clean.  However, the price - YIKES...   ehh...   pass on that point.
