Drawing inspiration from the Royal Air Force's 100 Squadron -- the first UK military unit formed for night bombing -- the U-2/51-Jet wristwatch features bold and military-inspired designs. Created by Bremont, this timepiece features the brand's signature ‘51’ lume. The body of the watch is hardened stainless steel, while the strap is black leather, though a Temple island rubber strap is also available.
The Jet wristwatch is powered by a modified calibre 11 ½''' BE-36AE automatic chronometer which comes with a 38 hour power reserve. A double anti-reflective, scratch-resistant sapphire crystal protects the face of the watch, while two metal dials give users control over the timepiece. The entire piece is waterproof to 100 meters and is quite durable thanks to its stainless steel construction.
