Bremont only released a new version on the popular U-2, now with some sort of blue dial. That makes it sound appealling too... U-2 Blue. In the past only available with a black switch in a black DLC-coated steel case, now all out of stock, the new U-2 comes in metal with a blue dial along with blue barrel.
Additionally , typically the officially named new U-2/BL is the first U-2 for you to feature a monitor back handle as standard. This is one of several features reminiscent of its brother, the MB-II. There is also a female middle case barrel which has a hardened stainless steel Trip-Tick situation. As explained in our intensive review of Supermarine 500, often the hardened steel used by Bremont has a Vickers hardness involving 2000. This is about seven times harder than common stainless steel used for the case.
Typically the U-2's DNA is tightly rooted in the Bremont Government Crew Watch, developed along with world's largest manufacturer connected with ejection seats, Martin-Baker; the actual MB-I (only for those who already have to use an ejection seat) ) and MB-II (publicly available). The U-2 line was originally released in the new year. The U-2 is equipped with a observatory grade movement in addition to features most of MB's expensive elements, including: shock-resistant silicone sports mount; designed to tolerate MB's ejection seat software, but with added features for instance has taken the watch to hundred, 000 feet and -50 degrees Celsius test.
An excellent detail is the anti-reflective covering on the sapphire crystal in which hardens to 2, 000 Vickers, just like the stainless steel circumstance. Usually an anti-reflective finish, applied on the outside of the amazingly, scratches easily, but not for this Bremont!
