Bremont RAF Commemorative 1918 Limited Edition Watch. Beautiful limited edition watch from this great British brand. This watch is their most popular of their limited edition range of only 275 pieces!! The two-piece leather strap has never been used and the watch will be supplied with a nato canvas strap; I have only worn it with the nato strap. Beautiful presentation watch case with original (unworn) brown leather calfskin 2-piece strap.

The watch is fitted with the nato strap which I have worn it with. All documentation will be supplied, cufflinks (unworn), etc. A Bristol Blenheim, a Supermarine Spitfire and a Hawker Hurricane that all flew during the summer of 1940 are incorporated into this remarkable timepiece.

Each of these Battle of Britain aircraft forms a propeller blade in the rotor and are complemented by a veneer of original wood from the Shuttleworth Collections 1917 SE5a which can be found at its centre.
