Just caught up on your post Guy, fabulous looking watch with a great backstory which I’ve only read about on the Bremont website. As for their straps I’ve had problems where anything in a sale has appeared too small for my wrist. Beaverbrooks Reading were great, in that they contacted Bremont and a longer strap was sent out at no additional cost. Other shops I’ve not been so lucky with. I had the same problem when I came across a rather lovely Montblanc at an absolute bargain price. As I was on a short visit to Kraków I didn’t have time for a replacement to arrive. CW straps also present me with a problem, I find the current straps far too short for my wrist, often the last keeper is redundant.

Congratulations Guy, I really do like this a lot.
I may get slated for this, but Bremont’s usual LEs that incorporate random remnants from planes, trains and automobiles leave me cold. This is a lovely exception to that for me and I think the combination of materials makes it that little bit different too. It will be interesting to see how it looks when the bronze patina develops.
Strap wise I get the idea it will go with almost anything. I look forward to seeing your experiments. Enjoy.
Just catching up on this, and I've got to say, the Project Possible is a stunning piece - a great purchase, and I'm also interested to see how the patina develops. I've become a huge fan of Bremont over the past year. Their watches fit me perfectly, feel solid, and on the occasions where I've needed to contact their CS, they've been exceptional.
I purchased a 'new' Endurance which is a similar look and feel, also with a back story. It wasn't new or display, but I love it.

Thanks! Definitely keeping the C60. Currently mulling over the Bremont. I think the C60 suits my skinny wrist more The Project Possible is nice and light, thanks to the titanium, though! Love that about it.

This forum is a problem My ex display (also from Jura) project possible says hello!
Both of these arrived today. Really like them both, probably the C60 more though as the Bremont sits a bit too tall for my wrist.
Great shot for comparison purposes. Is the Bremont significantly thicker, or does the design of the C60 case sit better on your wrist. Both of them are beautiful.
