Known for partnerships that go to extremes (think making a watch for pilots who ejected safely from Martin Baker ejection seats), British brand Bremont now unveils the Waterman Apex watch - tested by big-wave surfer 'waterman' Laird Hamilton. The high-performance mechanical watch measures 43mm in diameter and is crafted in stainless steel with a patented protective anti-shock mount for the movement. Water resistant to 500 meters, it is equipped with a helium escape valve and is a COSC certified chronometer. A portion of the proceeds from the sales of the 250 pieces will support ocean research for the non-profit Bimini Shark Lab.
