Bremont har introducerat en ny lekfull men flyg-inspirerad klocka i samarbete med Universal Products & Experiences. Altitude MB Meteor ”Felix the Cat”-utgåvan bygger på den tecknade figurens historiska roll som symbol bland piloter. Begränsad till 500 exemplar har den ett svart DLC-belagt titanhölje och distinkta element på urtavlan.
Bremonts flyg-fokuserade Altitude-kollektion har utökats med Altitude MB Meteor Felix the Cat-utgåvan, som presenterades den 6 mars 2026. Denna modell samarbetar med Universal Products & Experiences för att integrera den ikoniska tecknade figuren Felix the Cat, som sedan de tidiga dagarna av amerikansk marinflyg har symboliserat mod, humor och tur. Felix förekommer på eskadrilemärken, inklusive det för VFA-31 Tomcatters, vars samtalsnamn är Felix och emblem visar katten som bär en bomb. The watch builds on the Altitude MB Meteor, inspired by Martin-Baker ejection seats. It uses Bremont's Trip-Tick case construction, with a Grade 2 titanium case finished in black DLC for a tactical appearance. Measuring 42mm in diameter, 12.23mm thick, and 49.3mm lug-to-lug, the case includes a flexible rubber shock mount and soft-iron anti-magnetic ring for protection. A bi-directional Roto-Click inner bezel is adjusted via the crown at 4 o’clock, and water resistance reaches 100m. The black dial follows an instrument-style layout, featuring Felix the Cat running away with the numeral six—a nod to the aviation phrase “Watch Your Six.” Large applied Arabic numerals and indexes use white Super-LumiNova for a blue glow in low light. Yellow accents appear on the minute track and the seconds hand's ejection-handle counterweight, referencing Martin-Baker safety features. Powered by the calibre BE-14-AH, based on a La Joux-Perret G100 automatic movement, it runs at 28,800 vibrations per hour with a 68-hour power reserve. The movement drives central hours, minutes, and seconds, plus a date at 3 o’clock, visible through a sapphire caseback engraved with Felix artwork. Available on a DLC-coated titanium bracelet or black leather strap with quick-release, the edition is limited to 500 pieces. Prices are EUR 7,150 for the bracelet version and EUR 6,700 for the strap.
