    Bremont Solo White Dial

    I've been waiting for this one ever since I saw the pictures from Basel early this year. To me, this model epitomises the essence of Bremont - the most simple of concepts, beautifully executed.

    With a very simple dial, the watch is lifted to another level through the smallest of details - for example, the slope on the markers and triangle at 12 and (in my opinion) the perfect spacing on the dial wording. Compared to the black dial Solo, I also think the applied numerals improve the look of the watch.

    Compared with the MBII this watch is lighter on the wrist (perhaps due to the lack of faraday cage) and has a lower profile. I decided to go with the vintage brown Bremont strap, which seems to compliment both the dial and black pvd detail on the dial.

    Here's a few pictures...

    Thanks. Since I've only owned the Solo for a couple of hours, it's probably too early to tell where it will fit in the hierarchy. Between the MBII and the SM500, the MBII is a clear winner.

    They're all stunning watches and it's going to be tough deciding which one to wear every day...a nice conundrum to have! Enjoy some quality wrist time with your new Solo, it's a beauty and I'd love to own one too. Good choice on the vintage brown as well, it looks like the perfect strap choice for it. Did you get it from Moody's?

    I was speaking to the Oracle yesterday and couldn't agree more.
