Id take the Bremont. I didnt like them at first, but after checking some out, I really like them. Expensive, but really nice in person.

I think it depends on what else you have. Pilots watches like the Bremont will have a broader appeal and I think are therefore more versatile. I have never been a big fan of the SOH, but even if I were I think it is more of an acquired taste. In other words, if you could only ever wear one watch, I think the Bremont would be a better bet, but if you already have a pilot style watch, then maybe you want something a little different.

I agree that Bremont makes some fine pieces. It's hard to go wrong with either Bremont or Breitling.

Definitely the SOHC for me. The Bremont is a little busy in the dial, which is not always a bad thing, but in this case I think it makes it look too crowded. But I also think stock pics sometimes make it look worse than it is... but still the ling for me.
