One of the standout features of the Supermarine S302 is its functionality. The watch boasts a central GMT, hour, minute, and second hands, along with a date window at 3 o’clock. Whether you’re traveling the globe or simply keeping track of your daily schedule, this watch has got you covered.

The case: A blend of strength and style

The case of the Supermarine S302 is a testament to Bremont’s dedication to quality. Crafted from stainless steel using Bremont watches Trip-Tick construction, it ensures durability that can withstand the rigors of daily life. Additionally, the case is treated with scratch-resistant DLC, which means your watch will look as stunning as the day you bought it. The bi-color blue and green aluminum unidirectional 24-hour bezel not only adds a touch of sportiness but also serves a practical purpose for those who love to explore the depths.

With a case diameter of 40 mm and a lug width of 20 mm, this watch strikes the perfect balance between presence and wearability. It’s a size that suits a variety of wrists and is designed to fit any occasion, from a barbecue with the boys to a date night with your girl.

The art on the inside

When it comes to the dial and hands, the Supermarine S302 doesn’t disappoint. White Super-LumiNova is printed on the blue metal dial indexes, filled in the hour, minute, and second hands, and filled in the orange tip of the GMT hand. This combination not only makes the watch hands pop but also enhances visibility in low-light situations.

A domed anti-reflective, scratch-resistant sapphire crystal protects the dial, ensuring your watch remains pristine even in the face of daily wear and tear. The Supermarine S302 is water resistant up to an impressive 300 meters, making it suitable for your underwater adventures or poolside lounging.

A limited-edition color

Renowned marine conservationists Ocean Ramsey and Juan Oliphant are the inspirations behind the eye-catching Limited Edition Supermarine Ocean watch. This watch, which is only available in 400 pieces, supports their extraordinary underwater explorations, which in turn help Save the Turtles International raise critical funding for ocean conservation. This nonprofit organization is committed to marine conservation and its main goals are to eradicate plastic trash, shield marine species from entanglement, carry out outreach programs, and aid local communities.

The verdict

The initial model took on the guise of a dive-GMT watch, where the GMT feature was an augmentation to the S300 dive watch’s core. The Supermarine collection, initially a bastion of dive watches, has ventured into new territory. While the latest S302 retains its impressive 300 meters of water resistance, its focus has shifted away from diving functions. Instead, the introduction of the 24-hour bezel empowers the new S302 to adeptly track up to three distinct time zones.

In the world of watches, Bremont stands tall as a brand that combines elegance, functionality, and exclusivity. The Supermarine S302, with its precise movement, stunning design, and practical features, is a testament to Bremont’s commitment to quality and craftsmanship. So, whether you’re a watch connoisseur or simply someone looking for a timepiece that makes a statement, Bremont’s Supermarine S302 is an option worth considering.

Italian watchmaker honors naval aviation heritage with rugged military-inspired timepieces
Panerai’s New Dive Watche

Panerai has introduced two new dive watches that pay tribute to its longstanding relationship with the Italian Navy, a partnership spanning back to the 1910s. The Submersible Marina Militare (PAM01697) and Submersible Marina Carbotech (PAM01698) draw design inspiration from the flight gear and helmets of the Aviazione Navale, the Italian Navy's aviation sector.
Both timepieces feature stunning green grained matte dials with black gradient finishes that reflect the military aesthetic of naval aviation equipment. The distinctive coloring creates a sophisticated contrast while maintaining the robust character expected from Panerai's professional diving instruments.
Each watch displays a Marina Militare signature at 6 o'clock, complemented by accents of grey Super-LumiNova inspired by the colors of Aviazione Navale aircraft. The small seconds counter has been crafted to resemble a radar display, with "Aviazione Navale" engraved on the dial, creating an authentic connection to the naval aviation theme.
Panerai has enhanced legibility by making the applied indexes 20 percent wider in diameter compared to previous models. This practical improvement ensures optimal readability in challenging conditions, maintaining the brand's commitment to functional design.
Both watches feature an engraved Aviazione Navale wing emblem on the caseback, marking a first for Panerai and reinforcing the naval aviation tribute. The automatic P.900 caliber with 171 components powers both timepieces, providing reliable performance for professional diving applications.
The primary differences lie in case construction and dimensions. The Submersible Marina Carbotech (PAM01698) features a 14.25mm thick case crafted from Carbotech, Panerai's carbon fiber-based material known for its lightweight properties and distinctive marbled appearance. The Submersible Marina Militare (PAM01697) utilizes a 13.45mm thick case made from brushed 316LVM stainless steel, offering traditional durability.
Both models share a 44mm case diameter and 300-meter water resistance, making them suitable for serious diving activities. The watches come equipped with both green canvas and black rubber straps, providing versatility while maintaining the military aesthetic.
Panerai's naval heritage traces back to creating precision instruments for Italian Navy missions, eventually expanding to landing systems and technical equipment. The brand's 1935 Ref. 2533 prototype established its reputation for timepieces designed for challenging underwater operations.
The Submersible Marina Militare (PAM01697) retails for $12,500, while the Carbotech version (PAM01698) is priced at $19,500. Both models are available immediately, offering collectors the opportunity to own timepieces that celebrate over a century of Italian naval tradition combined with Panerai's modern diving watch expertise.
These releases demonstrate Panerai's ability to honor its military heritage while incorporating contemporary materials and manufacturing techniques, creating timepieces that appeal to both history enthusiasts and modern adventurers.
