Bremont revives the HMAF Collection
The brand highlights its official approval by His Majesty’s Armed Forces and its commitment to creating watches that endure extreme conditions. Davide Cerrato, Bremont’s CEO, expresses pride in the company’s partnership with the British Armed Forces, noting that the new collection embodies the brand’s precision engineering, functional design and respect for those who serve.
Honouring its longstanding collaboration with the Ministry of Defence, Bremont introduces a limited‑edition trio of timepieces inspired by its Land, Sea and Air families, each reflecting the brand’s deep connection to the British Army, Royal Navy and Royal Air Force. Since 2019, Bremont has worked closely with the MOD, producing watches for active personnel and celebrating the legacy of British military timekeeping. This partnership grants Bremont the rare right to use the official insignia of all three services. Through its Military and Special Projects division, the company also creates bespoke watches for units around the world, engineered for durability, endurance and exploration.
Founded in 2002, Bremont has always pursued the goal of building the most capable tool watches possible. Its timepieces are crafted with meticulous attention to detail and inspired by the spirit of British explorers who pushed the boundaries of the known world. Designed to perform in the ocean depths, on mountain peaks and in the harshest environments on Earth, Bremont watches are trusted by adventurers and military professionals alike. The brand’s philosophy, captured in its mantra Take It Further, reflects its admiration for those who strive to achieve the extraordinary. Every watch is built with purpose, engineered for practicality and shaped by the traditions of true tool‑watch design. Whether created for air, land or sea, each model is constructed to withstand demanding conditions, using only the highest‑quality materials and techniques.
In 2021, Bremont opened The Wing, its state‑of‑the‑art 35,000 sq. ft manufacturing facility in the Chiltern Valley, where its watches are produced with exceptional precision. The new HMAF collection celebrates the capability, dedication and human spirit embodied by the British Armed Forces, echoing Bremont’s commitment to going further. For 2026, the collection honours all three services with an Army Terra Nova field watch, a Naval Supermarine dive watch and an RAF Altitude pilot’s watch, each bearing the official heraldic emblem of its respective branch.
The HMAF Terra Nova 40.5 Date features a caramel gradient dial within a polished 40.5mm 904L steel case, paired with an oversized crown for easy handling. Its vintage character is enhanced by a California dial layout and applied Super‑LumiNova numerals in a warm cream shade. The Army badge sits at 9 o’clock, opposite a date window at 3. The model is offered on a 904L steel bracelet or a tan nubuck strap and provides a 41‑hour power reserve with 100m water resistance.
The HMAF Supermarine brings a full ceramic bezel insert to the 40mm, 300m dive watch, following the success of Bremont’s larger ceramic‑bezel Supermarine models. The 904L steel case is finished in ultra‑matt grey, echoing the tones of naval vessels, and paired with a light grey gradient dial. Legibility remains a priority, with hands and markers coated in next‑generation blue‑emission Super‑LumiNova. The Navy badge appears at 6 o’clock, with a date window at 3, and the watch is fitted with a brushed grey nubuck strap that complements its tactical aesthetic.
Representing the RAF, the HMAF Altitude 39 Date is a three‑hand pilot’s watch with a date display and the RAF crest at 6 o’clock. Its black dial is framed by a new midnight bronze Cerakote case chosen for its durability and scratch resistance, while a bevelled crown ensures easy operation even with gloves. As with the rest of the Altitude line, the design incorporates elements from the iconic MB series, including the Trip‑Tick case with a black barrel and an anti‑shock, anti‑magnetic movement mount. The seconds hand features Bremont’s signature Martin‑Baker ejection‑seat pull‑cord detail in vintage bronze. Applied numerals, a white lollipop seconds hand and contrasting minute markers enhance clarity and reinforce the technical character of the watch. Powered by a La Joux‑Perret movement, it offers a 68‑hour power reserve visible through an exhibition case back printed with the outlines of all three service crests. A brushed tan nubuck strap with cream stitching completes the design.
Each model in the HMAF collection is limited to 300 pieces and can also be purchased as part of a special three‑watch set, limited to just 50 sets worldwide.
