Here they are...

Here is my collection thus far I am looking to add an SS Daytona (black) in the near future. As you can tell I am not much for bling I'm a simple man.

Wonderfull trio.

Tell me about the Bremont. How's the timekeeping? How does it wear? I read an article on them and would like to get some feedback from owners.

Thanks for all the kind comments.

I wrote a short non-expert review in the Non-Rolex review section.

http://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=135016

Basically, I love the Bremont it is so different and attractive. It wears very well when I bought it I only had the Explorer I so at first it felt huge and heavy on my wrist. It looks great and can be worn as a casual watch or a dress watch. It has a nice fit the clasp keeps the watch in place I have never had a problem with it slipping on my wrist.

It is my favorite watch to wear when I travel (it can keep time in two time zones) or hike. It’s a tough watch that is built to last.

As far as time keeping I am probably not the best watch owner in the world I need to learn and pay attention more to the mechanics of the watch. I do find that it needs to be wound more than my Rolex and it tends to run a bit slower too. I don't know if it is me or the watch. It's most likey me.
