Watch our film for an exclusive behind the scenes insight from Bremont's CEO, Davide Cerrato, as he delves into the core principles and intricate design details of the latest additions to the Supermarine range.
Adventurers and explorers have always been integral in testing Bremont ‘in the field’ with the watches being relied on as an essential component of equipment. Testament to the ruggedness and reliability of its timepieces, the Bremont Supermarine has been worn extensively in some of the harshest environments on earth, both above and below the waves. The new S302 heralds a new generation of Bremont’s iconic Supermarine Collection whilst retaining some of the core DNA that this range has become recognised for.
SUPERMARINE S302
The S302 models have been reinvigorated in fresh new colourways with refined features and improved legibility. The stainless steel 40mm dive watch features an automatic GMT movement with 50-hour power reserve, a new 24-hour unidirectional rotating bezel and date functionality at 3 o’clock as well as being water resistant to 300m.
A distinctive bi-colour blue and green aluminium unidirectional rotating bezel is introduced for the first time with the two tones giving the indication of day and night and new numerals. The S302 Jet edition boasts a black DLC case complemented by a black ceramic unidirectional rotating bezel and a sandblasted black dial, a classic Bremont ‘Jet’ design. Both models are punctuated with accents of vibrant orange, from the outline of the GMT hand, across key markers on the inner bezel through to the ‘Supermarine’ wordmark on the dial. With visibility being of paramount importance, Super-LumiNova® has been applied across both models with blue emission indexes and hands. A contrasting green emission lume has been applied to the GMT hand.
For the first time a new integrated rubber strap has been introduced to the S300 line. Designed to fit superbly on the wrist, the ergonomic rubber strap has been created in complementary colours to each new watch design. Alternatively, a classic brown vintage leather strap or stainless-steel bracelet is available allowing the new S302 to suit any occasion or adventure.

SUPERMARINE S502
The new S502 in stainless steel, a high-performance and highly robust Supermarine GMT. In-keeping with the wider Supermarine Collection, the 43mm case with 500m water resistance and helium escape valve was built from a desire to create a fit for purpose technical dive watch that was inspired by, and suited to, the brand’s adventure-based roots.
The release of the S502 further enhances Bremont’s Supermarine Collection and adds to the latest designs which have been honed by the brand’s CEO and renowned product designer Davide Cerrato. Cerrato has introduced a 24-hour unidirectional bezel and simplified the dial design, drawing the eye to the central key functions of the watch and enhancing overall legibility. The revitalisation of the Supermarine Collection forms part of an overall brand and product strategy which sees the product ranges reformed and grouped elegantly into categories of ‘Sea, Land and Air’, reflecting the brand’s positioning as providing the ultimate tool watch suited to every environment.
Technical features for the S502 not only include its GMT functionality but also its deep-diving features with 500m water resistance and an automatic helium escape valve with a screw-down crown. The technical design aesthetic of the watch is complemented by Bremont’s vintage Super-LumiNova® which can be seen on the black ceramic unidirectional bezel featuring 24 hr markers. The indexes and hands incorporate the same lume for increased visibility in the dark. Orange detailing on the tip of the GMT hand enhances legibility whilst reprising the ‘Supermarine’ wordmark on the dial and the orange details on the dial flange. A date window sits at 3 o’clock.
