Bremont Martin Baker Ejector watch

Gloster Meteor Test Ejection

Gloster Meteor Test Ejection

A while ago Nick let slip that Bremont might do some testing with an Ejector seat company. Well ‘Rumour’ has it that Bremont has been working for the past few months on a joint testing and development program for a new range of aeronautical watches.

They have been working with the very established firm of Martin Baker LINK http://www.martin-baker.com/ (who make 85% of the western worlds ejection seats – including the F15, F16, Euro-Fighter, Harrier, Tornado, Joint Strike Fighter etc etc – in fact all fighter aircraft you could probably think of… lol!

Ejection seats go off with forces of over 30g and the time is less than 2 seconds from the time the handle is pulled to the time the pilot is hanging in the parachute.

I found this VID from Martin Baker on YouTube HERE
The watches are available to buy from ATG the Official Online Dealer For Bremont here: Buy Bremont Ejector Watches
Apparently these are first watches to be tested like this under these conditions

Have a look on the Bremont Forum HERE for more information - man those Bremont brothers are bonkers!!
