    New Purchase- U251Jet

    Hi all,

    It’s been a while since my last post, but wanted to share a few pics of the U251 Jet I just picked up. I’m over the moon with it.

    It came on the open end DLC bracelet, but I’ve swapped it out for the Temple Island rubber. I’ll probably try the bracelet at some point, but I’m really enjoying it on rubber at the moment.

    Unsurprisingly, it wears a lot like my MBII, but the DLC case produces an entirely different impression on the wrist. The clean dial design and blued hands make for a highly legible design. Also, I’ve never been big on the day complication, so I’m happy with just the date display (although a no date would have been ideal).

    I think this one’s a keeper. ;-)

    What a great new purchase - you certainly don’t see too many of them about at the moment. Enjoy the watch, and let us know your thoughts after it’s been one the wrist’ for a while!

    Really nice watch!

    When it was first released I thought t would suit a NATO strap with dlc metalware but Bremont didn't do one at the time......

    Thanks for the kind words, gents! I’ve got some additional straps coming in and will be sure to post some shots. Also, I did wear the blue sweatshirt t bring out the hands.

    Look out, Steve has got his straps out! It was, at one time, like being at an AD - an enviable collection, especially in that ‘dealer’ box!

    Congrats', it's a beaut'. I found an older version as a "new-old-stock" at a decent price I keep checking on!. Looks great on the rubber.
