A loving tribute to a legendary British race car
On the 70th Anniversary of the celebrated 1953 Le Mans race win where the Jaguar C-type finished first, second and fourth, Bremont introduces a new iteration of its original C-type watch, celebrating both the aluminium chassis of the iconic race-winner, while evocatively nodding to the innovation and beauty of the 1951 original.
Designed by British Jaguar car designer, aerodynamicist and artist Malcolm Sawyer, the C-type was famed for its exceptionally fluid shape, and as with previous Bremont Jaguar timepieces, the Bremont Jaguar C-type draws inspiration from the car’s classic shape and design features.
The monochrome 43mm Jaguar C-type chronograph is a contemporary take on a motoring classic and adds to Bremont’s Motorsport Collection. The steel Trip-Tick® case construction with scratch resistant PVD treated case middle is completed by its bi-directional rotating tachymeter ring with the brushed finish a visual nod to the famous disc brake of the C-type, famous as it was the first ever race car to use this pioneering technology that is still used today.
