Bremont watches have a good reputation for being tough and reliable.
Most of their designs leave me a little cold but I do like the Supermarine.
It seems like a great watch for your £3K.
I have read that the English (their name and their nationality) are seriously interested in adding in-house movements to their watches in the future. It'll be interesting to see the price point after this happens.
