Not dived with it yet...
...but it's survived two week's of desk-diving with no ulna-related injuries! It's very comfortable - although not a small watch, by any means. 43mm across, not including the crown. 14-15mm high. I've not tested it underwater yet, but hoping to take it freediving in the New Year. Will post my results in early 2010.

Bremont Supermarine 500
Kong suggested I might post a few pictures of a new watch - apologies if this isn't up to your normal standards! The Supermarine 500 is Bremont's first "amphibious" watch. Water-resistant to 500m, it's classically designed, with strong styling and is name...
Thanks Mat...
...that's a handsome looking watch and a very interesting summary. It was good of you to take the trouble to bring out a brand we don't get to see enough. A couple of questions, if you are up for it: first, what is the WR (couldn't pick it from the dial)?...
Water resistance

Looks good in the dark...
....I actually prefer that in the lume shot to the daylight ones. The dial becomes less fussy and the lume on the bezel looks excellent. One question. How does the crown at 2 o'clock feel against your wrist (or most precisely, the tip of your ulna). I've ...

Very cool watch and nice pictures!
I think your photos are great (not sure if that was what you were referring to being not up to "our standards")! Congrats on the watch! I think the blue lume is so fun. It makes me wonder what the other colors are like. Thanks for sharing with us, and I h...
Very nice
A unique watch. I've liked this one since I first saw pictures of it. Have not seen one in person yet. Thanks for the pictures.
