Great heights: Bremont Project Possible

Bremont is commemorating mountaineer Nirmal Purja’s record-breaking 2019 feat

British luxury watch brand Bremont is celebrating the completion of Project Possible by Nirmal ‘Nims’ Purja MBE. The incredible challenge saw the Bremont ambassador, a former Gurkha and British Special Forces soldier, make mountaineering history by summiting Earth’s 14 tallest mountains in just six months and six days, breaking the previous record, and a further six world records in the process.

To mark this triumphant achievement, Bremont is releasing the Limited Edition Bremont Project Possible timepiece. Limited to 300 pieces, this GMT diver takes inspiration from Bremont’s stalwart, the Supermarine S500. Water resistant up to 500 metres, the watch’s 43mm case is made from titanium and bronze, with a dark-blue dial with bronze bezel and ceramic blue insert, paired with bronze hands – the first use of the metal by Bremont in any of its watches. Paired with a khaki vintage side-stitch strap, an open caseback reveals a rotor detailing the heights of each of the 14 mountains conquered, a fitting reminder of the incredible physical and mental feat that inspired it.
