'The Wing' - Bremont's gamble to beat the Swiss at their own game

We sat down with Giles English, co-founder of Bremont watches, and we asked him to share about the company as well as some of the special watches they've made over the years. Bremont's HQ 'The Wing' is an incredible accomplishment for British watchmaking, we were very impressed and recommend booking a visit to see their facility in Henley upon Thames.
