I have been interested in Bremont for a while, but hadn't had the opportunity to see any in the flesh until just recently.

Very nice. There were two that really caught my eye when I put them on.

The cream dialed ALT1-C and the new MBII. The latter is uber rugged, with a rubber movement dampening system, a faraday cage to provide protection from magnetic fields. All Bremont cases are tegimented steel, hardened to 2000 vickers. Straps are bridle leather, and are quite thick and durable.

ALT1-C

MBII

A link about the MB1/MBII

The one I tried on had the green barrel. There is orange, green, anthracite, and red. The red is reserved for the MB1, which is only sold to pilots who have ejected in an MB seat.

The brand seems to have just one downside, that prices are quite high relative to the current level of pedigree. Not that Bremont can't be a great marque, it simply hasn't established itself yet.
