British watch brand Bremont has introduced ‘Air Force Blue,’ “a bold new colourway” across its aviation-inspired Altitude collection. The four pilot’s watches that debut this new colour include the Altitude 39 Date, Altitude MB Meteor Time Zones, Altitude Chronograph and Altitude MB Meteor.

The collection includes two MB models. MB is short for Martin-Baker, the renowned British manufacturer of ejection seats that have saved countless fighter pilots lives, with whom Bremont has had a seventeen year partnership.

Altitude 39 Date

Image: The Air Force Blue colour contrasts well with the black accents. I love the details around the date window, which I am sure is aviation-inspired. The black date wheel balances well with the black accents on the dial and outer hour and minute scale. The case features the brand’s Trip-Tick construction with a brushed DLC black barrel (visible in the image). The case features an inner soft iron anti-magnetic movement ring and a protective anti-shock movement mount.

“The everyday pilot’s watch”

A simple three-hand watch with date; it features a brushed blue galvanic metal dial. Hour and minute hands feature a gloss black finish, coated with white Super-LumiNova (blue glow).

Altitude Chronograph

Notice the snailed finish of the subdials at 12 and 6 o’clock. The red coloured triangular tip provides a pop of colour to the Air Force Blue dial and black and white accents.

What do we think?

I had the chance to visit the Bremont booth at Watches and Wonders Geneva, both in 2025 and last month. The brand is going from strength to strength; its all-new Supernova Chronograph will be the first British watch to fly to the Moon in partnership with Astrolab, an American aerospace company. Astrolab’s Lunar Terrain Vehicle (LTV) FLIP rover will voyage to the Moon as part of Astrobotic’s Griffin Mission One (Griffin-1), slated for the second half of 2026. The Supernova Chronograph will travel aboard and land on the Moon as a permanent resident.

Despite this achievement, Bremont and aviation remain inseparable. After all its “origins and DNA is rooted in aviation.” Introducing the new ‘Air Force Blue’ colour on three existing models and the all-new Altitude MB Meteor Time Zones enhances the brand’s pilot’s watch credentials and offerings to collectors. For watch enthusiasts and collectors with a passion for pilot’s watches, these are compelling model to choose from, each filled with an abundance of aviation-inspired details. My favourites are the Altitude 39 Date and Altitude Chronograph, both ideally with the leather strap.
