2 The Chivalry watch and the Chivas Made for Gentlemen by Bremont limited edition gift tin. This Chivas Made for Gentlemen by Bremont limited edition gift tin boldly features deconstructed watch elements to showcase the elegant and complex engineering of Bremont chronometers and it is a gift with purchase when customers purchase a timepiece from Bremont, but it is also available for sale in its own right. In addition to the gift tin, Bremont is also pleased to announce 12 limited edition Chivalry watches, which will be auctioned exclusively for charities around the world. The classically stylish, polished steel Bremont Chivalry watch, fitted with alligator strap, features a piece of oak cask used in the maturation of whiskies for Chivas Regal. The signature of James and John Chivas is etched on the rotor of the timepiece and the Chivas crest is subtly embossed on the dial. An engraved copper plate, taken from a retired Scotch whisky copper still, sits on the leather presentation pouch. Denis Martinet, Managing Director of Bremont Asia, remarks, The collaboration with Chivas is a genuine meeting of minds. We are both dedicated and passionate about keeping traditions of craftsmanship alive and focused upon leaving a positive legacy. While Bremont watches are Tested Beyond Endurance, Bremont s Co-Founders and I have been blown away by the level of skill that Chivas Master Blender, Colin Scott, deploys in channelling nature and time in blending their Scotch whiskies. Richard Black, Global Brand Director of Chivas Regal, says, Modern gentlemen value tasteful lifestyles. We notice the commonalities between Chivas and Bremont as award winning British brands that reflect the desires of the modern gentleman. What both Chivas and Bremont do is incredibly complex but the art is to present it simply and stylishly whilst providing our customers with distinctive luxury items and experiences.
