"...relatively affordable" I wish that I had a relative that could afford to pay 5000 pounds for a watch. I'd be very nice to that relative! :wink:

Good spot! Bremont are an interesting company and I love that watch!
I'm sure many on here are watch aficionados - nice cars and nice watches seem to appeal to the same people.

Anyway, wife has just said "watch or car but not both!" so looks like I'll have to stick with the Swatch for now...!

Or you could buy one of these: http://www.bavarian-crono.de/shop/Editi ... ::1_3.html

They cost ?199 for the quartz ?495 for the mechanical movement depending on how you specify. They do them for 3.8, 4.2 and V12. Nicer than the Bremont IMHO. The piston watch case/safe is ?195 extra if you want it.

I like the E type steering wheel on the rear of the watch best, i would wear mine back-to-front.
why didnt they put that on the front, the three spokes would have made nice markers for the 9,12,and 3 0`clocks.
much more recognizable as an E type product, than the silly rev counter shown.

Pity they didn't put the second hand dial at six o'clock like the Series 1 clock.

But if it was like the Series I clock, it wouldn't run.
