  1. Thanks, I sent an email last week but no response yet.
  2. Anybody know the current status of pops leather? Website link doesn’t work. Does anyone have a recommendation where to get a leather flight jacket modified these days? Thanks
  3. Any thoughts on replacing the rescue Angel with the king "K" and crown since the angel is more of a PJ thing?
  4. Heard back from Bremont. To get senior, command pilot wings or nav wings each version needs to have 15 orders. If there are 15 folks interested, let me know and we can make this order happen. HuggyU2 made a good point of getting senior pilot wings because the UPT commitment ensures senior pilot wings. That would be my vote. Thoughts? You can choose between a stainless steel case or a black DLC case finish. The barrel colors come in blue, black, orange, green, yellow, anthracite, bronze and titanium. Also you have the option of closed or open back. Each comes with a custom engraving on the back and numbered. I have mockups of the different colored barrels. PM me if interested. Still a great price for a really nice watch.
  5. I'll ask but my hunch is no unless we had 15 orders for each type. I'll be a senior pilot myself in a few months but would still go with the basic wings. I think if/when I got my command pilot wings I would want to upgrade my watch again which would get expensive.
  6. I was thinking the same thing. They also have a custom strap that you could get thats black leather with dark blue stitching. I e-mailed them to get an accurate price so guys have a good idea of what it will be. Tell all your friends, only need 12. Hopefully it won't be too hard to get more people.
  7. HU&W thanks for photoshopping this. It is a beautiful watch and I think it looks pretty sharp with the wings on it. Yes, the watch isn't cheap but by getting a custom order together we would get about a 50% savings on it. I think its a great opportunity to get a really nice watch that you will have for a long time/career at a discounted price. Anyone else have any inputs of things to add or change? I really like that it is simple, clean and neat. Do we have 15 potential buyers?
  8. This was exactly what I meant. Thank you for saying it better than me.
  9. Yeah I get what you guys are saying. I wouldn't want something that look like a BX special watch either. Having a hard time getting enough interest for HC-130 version and was trying to appeal to a larger audience. Thanks for the input.
  10. Looking to see if there is any interest in a group order for a custom USAF Pilot Bremont watch. I figure this would appeal to a wide crowd and not just limit it to a specific squadron or airframe. They have been making making custom watches for all the services and squadrons. They just recently made one for Naval Flight Surgeons. I was thinking if they made one similar to this one but with Air Force pilot wings and different colors to compliment it. Below are some details of the program from a Bremont rep. Looks like we would need a minimum of 15 orders. Any interest or inputs to make it better? http://www.facebook.com/BremontMilitary I can't get the screenshot to post that I took of the flight surgeon watch but you can find it on their instagram "bremontmilitary" In terms of Bremont squadron watch buy program, we have two types we can offer; 1) Smaller scale military watch buy (15 to 50 watch orders); For these we need a minimum initial order of about 15 watches (up to 50). We can work from any watch model from our collection (apart from Limited Edition and new models announced at BaselWorld 2015) and would bespoke the dial by adding either a logo, numeral or aircraft top view, silhouette or both. No other watch parts can be bespoke for this size order. 2) Larger scale military watch buy (50 or more watch orders); For these we need a minimum initial order of about 50 watches. Again, we can work from any watch models from our collection (apart from Limited Edition and new models announced at BaselWorld 2015) and would bespoke the dial by adding either a logo or aircraft top view, silhouette or both and we could also look at altering other watch parts such as rotor, or dial ring or case back or barrel (depending on the watch model chosen). Pricing: Our watches retails between $4,195 - $6,795 depending on the models. That said, Bremont subsidies a considerable part of the cost for special military project and we can provide for squadrons / divisions a bespoke watch for nearly half the retail price. The prices provided include Customs tax and shipping in the USA. The watches come on a calf leather strap and NATO style strap, the leather watch wallet, watch tool and three years warranty. Each watch is also personally engraved on the back case with your name, call sign or date (up to 8 digits). It is also possible to purchase a metal bracelet for and additional $375 ($750). As for timing, once we have agreed on a watch design and have collected enough orders, we request a security deposit payment from each individual to secure the project moving forward. The lead time from then on is about 22-26 weeks (for smaller scale order) and about 32-36 weeks for larger scale projects. I hope this covers most of your initial questions you may have Kyle and I am looking forward to hearing back what your thoughts are. Many thanks, Kind regards, Catherine
  11. Has anyone tried out or know of someone who did their ATP with action multi ratings in Groton, CT? Thinking about trying to get it done there and hope to get some feedback on them. PM me if you'd like. Thanks!
  12. Any one know of a military friendly place to knock out the ATP in the Long Island, NY area? If not in the northeast area? Thanks!
