A watch is an extensive part of your person style and flair. Those who have an avid interest in watches often have very specific requirements for the watch they choose to wear. The “perfect watch” may unlock a man’s unrevealed interest for watches. The purchase of a watch should not be decision made in haste, but rather a thought out investment, that the receiver will appreciate for years to come. A watch should harmonise with the bearer’s personality and style. Below we give you examples of three watches that will become long-term quality purchases, as well as examples of clothing style they go with.
The First Quality Watch
The first quality watch features a black steel case and a stylish, detailed clean design. A watch that, both in terms of style and functionality is versatile. The watch’s design permits it to be suitable when worn with a suit, whilst the size and stainless steel construction ushers a sporty look. In summary, a versatile watch that is perfect for the watch connoisseurs who wish to bear a sports watch.
The Dress Watch
We often talk about sports and dress watches, which is characterised by the functions and designs. A sports watch is often many peoples first step into the world of watches, due to their versatility. The next logical step is to invest in a dress watch. With its white watch face and polished metal case, this Swiss Montblanc watch is flawless when combined with the majority of outfits.
The Connoisseur’s Watch
Britain’s Bremont is very much the new kid on the block in the world of quality watches. Bremont manufacture their own parts, something that few other manufacturers, including Rolex, do today. They assemble a plethora of watches for a large number of special military forces, earning them plaudits from within the watch industry. Even with this in mind, they hold their own in the quality watch industry, where quality comes before brand.

To compare Bremot to Rolex and say, ''Bremont manufacture their own parts, something that few other manufacturers, including Rolex, do today'' is just stupid and false. Rolex makes all of its watches in-house. They even have their own foundry. By all means, Bremont is a good watchmaker, but please don't compare it to The Crown :-)

@- The Watch Collector: Dear WatchCollector!
We appreciate your passion on the subject. The text does however not compare Bremont to Rolex. It merely states the fact that they also really make their in house movements.
As a collector, I am sure you know the prestige in this, as for example, a well established Italian sounding Swiss watch brand, known for it's quite chunky cases, some time ago officially falsely claimed to finally have developped their own in house movement. It soon turned out to be a slightly modified ETA 2892-A2 ;-)
If given the chance, I strongly encourage you to visit Bremonts factory in Henley, which I have, and experience them first hand yourself! :D

To your defense, I want to add that I looked over the text again, and see that the meaning of my original paragraph got lost in translation to a fairly great extent.
My original paragraph states "Bremont make their own in house movements", which got translated to "their own parts" which indeed makes a noteworthy difference. I am not skilled enough to determine whether they are to be regarded as a “manufacturier” (in-house) or “établisseur”, using balance wheels, wheel trains and springs from specialists.
I do know that They design, cut and finish their own main plates and bridges, as well as cases though :-)
