Bremont is expanding its MB line of tool watches with its latest release at Geneva Watch Days – the Altitude MB Meteor Stealth Grey, a limited edition of just 400 pieces, created in collaboration with Martin-Baker, the British company behind the majority of the world’s aircraft ejection seats.

The watch features a 42 mm Trip-Tick case, crafted from treated grade 2 titanium, with a subtle texture and ultra-matte surface designed to absorb light, much like the skin of stealth aircraft or naval vessels. Anchoring the middle of the case is Bremont’s signature knurled black PVD central barrel. The concave and angled bezel and a domed ‘glassbox’ sapphire crystal ensures the dial remains legible from every angle. It also features a refined dual-crown – one at 2 o’clock used for winding and time setting, and the other at 4 o’clock that operates the internal timing bezel. Both are knurled for grip and have been re-engineered for smoother, precise action. The bezel itself is powered by Bremont’s Roto-Click mechanism, now reworked to deliver a cleaner, more consistent click.

The dial of this model replicates the texture of an actual meteorite on a brass base plate finished with electro-applied coating, making it more durable. Against this textured backdrop, there are applied Arabic numerals and indexes, and gloss-black hour and minute hands treated with Super-LumiNova® that emit a blue light.
Following the design of the original model in the line, there is a yellow seconds hand, tipped with a red lollipop and counterbalanced by a pull-cord motif, referencing the iconic yellow-and-black ejection handles found in Martin-Baker seats. A dashed line around the date window (at 3 o’clock) and a red triangle at the dial’s center echo cockpit instruments and safety warnings.
Beneath the dial beats the BB14-AH calibre, Bremont’s automatic movement built on a La Joux-Perret base, offering a 68-hour power reserve. The movement is suspended inside the case on a flexible rubber mount to absorb shocks, while a soft-iron shield offers magnetic protection. Through the exhibition caseback, you can see the movement finished in gunmetal grey with Geneva stripes. It arrives on a sandblasted titanium bracelet with quick-release functionality.
