Whilst we all patiently(!) wait for the release of the SE (It's any day now... honest) I thought I'd run a little competition.

Can you guess details of the ALT1TUDE SE?

To enter, fill in the details below with what you think the SE will look like. Each question will have a total of 2 points ( 2 points is 100% accurate, 1 point is partly accurate) Anybody scoring 8 or above will be entered into a draw. Only ONE entry per person.

The prize will be a new Bremont strap: Black leather with contrast stitch ( from a choice of: Orange, red or green) OR the choice of a Bremont accessory (Keyring, Cufflinks or a pin buckle).

The competition will be open UNTIL the SE will be released. This could be hours, days (but hopefully not weeks and months!)

This is what you have to answer - please respond BELOW not via PM or email.

a) Based on:
b) Case:
c) Dial:
d) Barrel:
e) Caseback:
f) Other details:

So for example, if we used the White SOLO as an example it would be:

a) Based on: BC / SOLO
b) Case: Stainless steel
c) Dial: White
d) Barrel: Anthracite
e) Caseback: Exhibition
f) Other details: applied silver hands + markers

There are some details which make this watch fairly unique, so use your imagination for top scores! And no it's not based on the HMS Victory!

a) Based on: B2!
b) Case: black
c) Dial: black
d) Barrel: black (although yellow would be cool, I think that might be a little too much yellow...maybe...)
e) Caseback: exhibition with yellow incorporated in the rotor somehow (maybe Felix and/or bomb?)
f) Other details: Replace all of the red components of the watch with yellow, remove the B2 airplane on the face and replace it with the Alt1tude logo. The chrono second hand will be yellow striped like the website.

Here's my best guess (even though I said I'd stop guessing):

a) Based on: U2
b) Case: DLC
c) Dial: Grey (picking up on the colours used on the site here - also, similar to the C-17 Globemaster)
d) Barrel: MBII knurled barrel in Anthracite
e) Caseback: Exhibition with Yellow rotor
f) Other details: Felix logo incorporated (very subtly) in the dial, Yellow second hand and triangle at 12 o'clock, number's on the rotating bezel in Yellow (but not the individual minute markers)

Whatever it looks like..................I'm hoping we find out soon!!

I was going to put my dream combo down but instead have decided on a more realistic but hopeful combo!

a) Based on: MBII
b) Case: DLC
c) Dial: Black
d) Barrel: black and yellow (like the ejection seat handle)
e) Caseback: display back
f) Other details: yellow rotor, yellow seconds, Alt1tude written on lower half of dial.

Here's hoping I can get hold of one of the SE's!!

e) Caseback: Exhibition (Please Please)
f) Other details: Yellow Screws, Alt1tude written on the movement, Black Leather, plus a Black Nato strap with yellow stitching. I know Felix is in there but I cant figure out where

Based on the teasers I think a prize should also be given for those who have got their predicitions most wrong.

I reckon I'm in with a chance! Canvas strap please.

Had a new thought. Won't be tallied or count, but would be cool and wanted to share.
A-MB/U2 chassis
B-Stainless Steel finish
C-Black Barrel
D-Grey dial with applied black font numbers and black Bremont logo
E-Exhibition with painted black or DLC rotor.
F-MB1 outer bezel and second hand. Felix at 9:00 like the IAF MBII. Yellow triangle on dial. "Alt1tude" where "anti-shock" would be. Stealthy
:cool:
