I was dead set on picking up a Zenith El Primero Chronomaster Sport this year until I tried one on against a Speedmaster ‘57. I’m absolutely smitten.
I’m also keeping an eye out for something solid gold and vintage-y in the dress watch field. A Constellation or similar. And maybe a Railmaster if one pops up at an amazing price and I have funds.
Thanks @Chronophobia. I didn’t know that. That’s super interesting.
Well, it was a gift I picked out and paid for myself, but my wife told me I had to put it away until Christmas 😂.
Honestly, I fell in love with this watch the moment I saw a picture of it on the Bremont website. I was looking for a GMT/Diver and the fact that it's a British brand made it attractive to me. The black case and black ceramic bezel along with the off-white numerals really sang to me.
Since Christmas, well it's been a bit of a slow burner. I haven't warmed to it on the wrist in the same way I have with my Tudor Ranger or some of my other less expensive pieces, but I'm wearing it today and enjoying it.
I think I'll enjoy this watch for a while but when it comes time to buy something else, this one might be sold to fund it.
