Bremont U-2/DLC Luxury Watch Review

http://www.thewatchbox.com This is the Bremont U-2/DLC, and like its close cousin, the Bremont MB II, it's one you want to own. The one you don't? That would be the Bremont MB I; only survivors of actual Martin-Baker ejection seat evacuations are permitted to order that one. We hear the full Martin-Baker experience can deduct years from your life... and inches from your total height. So let's stick to the Bremont U-2/DLC, which packs all the panache and features of the MB I without the rocket-propelled windfall for your chiropractor. Bremont’s 2009-present “Martin-Baker” (MB) series has been a sensation with collectors of aviation timepieces, and the MB series adds a new element of intrigue with the U-2/DLC (diamond-like carbon). Lockheed Martin’s U-2 spy plane provides clandestine inspiration for the new Bremont aviation model. Now in its seventh (!) decade of secret service, the U-2 spyplane was designed at the height of the Cold War to keep tabs on you-know-who. The infamous 1960 downing of U.S. pilot Francis Gary Powers in Soviet Airspace added heat to the Cold War… and proved a fine showcase for the Martin-Baker ejection seat. This 43mm sports watch combines the essence of Bremont in a versatile package that suits any occasion: business suit or bathing suit. Bremont has built its name on its aviation-inspired chronometer watches, and the young firm (established 2002) has risen to prominence with meteoric speed.
