Product Description
BREMONT Supermarine S500 Endurance GMT 43mm Titanium
The BREMONT Endurance was the product of working with record-breaking polar explorer Ben Saunders. The time-peice was tested and developed for his Trans-Antarctic Solo Expedition in November 2017 : an unsupported crossing of Antarctica and named in honour of Shackleton’s most famous expedition – one which saw him rescue his entire crew, after his ship ‘Endurance’ was crushed in the sea-ice – the route of which, Ben retraced solo; the name is ofcourse also a nod to the company maxim of being ‘Tested Beyond Endurance’.
Shackleton getting his men back alive is one of the greatest stories of human endeavour and leadership, qualities Ben has certainly demonstrated over his twelve expeditions in the polar regions, having covered more than 7,000 km north of the Arctic circle and South of the Antarctic circle since 2001. Naturally, the timepiece had to be able to withstand the extreme climate conditions of the Antarctic continent, being worn on the outside of Ben’s jacket to serve as a crucial navigational device with its GMT hand. Limited to 300 pieces, its black dial together with its robust bi-directional rotating sapphire bezel features orange compass heading markers and complements the North indicator on the GMT hand, all designed for ease of navigation and clarity against the stark white of Antarctica.
