Hi all,
I’m hosting a cars and coffee morning at Bremont HQ just outside Henley-on-Thames on Saturday 20th May.
It will be an ‘open house’ affair with staff on hand to explain what goes on at their watch manufacturing plant. There will be coffee and breakfast available
Tickets are £5 per person and have been selling well.
There are approx 20 driver tickets and 35 passenger tickets left.
If you’re interested you can purchase tickets through eventbrite or visit the link on my instagram page Myblue912
Hope you decide to join me for a great morning at Bremont
Any questions just shout

John

I can't take Bremont seriously after Roger Smith pointed out they where lying about the in-house movements

No knickers in a twist. Just when a company claim makes an which is false I, personally, don't have any interest in them afterwards.

They made a mistake with an exaggerated marketing claim a while ago. No one got hurt. Perhaps they’ve learned from it.

I think it’s sad that the internet doesn’t want to allow people second chances, I’d be long divorced / bankrupt / dead if I hadn’t had a few over the years.

Indeed. For me the fact that they are a British company would be a big factor in buying.

I really like this Image
