Bremont has unveiled the Terra Nova 40.5 Date, a masterpiece that balances heritage and innovation. This new addition to the Terra Nova collection, introduced under the guidance of Davide Cerrato in 2024, draws inspiration from 20th-century military pocket watches while incorporating advanced technology. Designed for adventurers and watch enthusiasts, the Terra Nova 40.5 Date seamlessly combines timeless elegance with cutting-edge features.
The Terra Nova 40.5 Date pays homage to classic designs with a caramel-gradient dial that transitions from lighter tones at the center to darker hues at the edges, creating depth and sophistication. The dial features large, luminous Super-LumiNova numerals for excellent readability in low light. Encased in corrosion-resistant 904L stainless steel, the watch is as durable as it is elegant, with a minute track inspired by traditional pocket watches for a balanced aesthetic.
Thoughtfully crafted for both adventure and everyday use, the watch boasts a 40.5mm case diameter and an 11.11mm thickness, ensuring a comfortable fit on any wrist. The 47mm lug-to-lug distance enhances balance and wearability, while its 100-meter water resistance makes it ideal for outdoor activities. Available with a premium leather strap or a robust metal bracelet, the Terra Nova 40.5 Date offers versatility to suit diverse preferences.
Equipped with the modified BE-36AE movement based on the Sellita SW200-1, the Terra Nova 40.5 Date delivers exceptional precision and reliability. The movement incorporates a Glucydur balance for thermal stability and Anachron and Nivaflex components for enhanced shock resistance. It supports hour, minute, and second hands, with a date window positioned at 3 o’clock for easy timekeeping. This robust movement ensures consistent performance across different environments.
The Terra Nova 40.5 Date embodies Bremont’s commitment to blending timeless aesthetics with modern technology. Its elegant design, durable build, and limited-edition exclusivity make it a coveted piece for adventurers and watch connoisseurs alike. Limited to only 100 pieces, each watch is individually numbered, adding a layer of uniqueness.
With prices starting at $3,400 for the leather strap and $3,650 for the metal bracelet, the Terra Nova 40.5 Date is more than just a watch—it’s a statement of refined taste and craftsmanship. The limited production enhances its value, making it a worthy investment for those who appreciate excellence.
