Depends how you look at it...if you are brand driven and absolutely must conform to this then yes,it is a good chunk of cash.

However,if you buy a watch becasue you like it and are satisfied with the quality,then its not so silly. The Supermarine is superbly engineered (as are Bremont in general) and is pack full of technology (case hardness,Faraday cage,Bremont anti shock) so you get a lot for your money.

Also,from my point of view,you buy into a brand where the brothers (Nick & Giles English) are really enthusiastic about their watches and are WIS in general. Plus,having met them they are genuine blokes.
