The MB Meteor integrates frontline materials, improved ergonomics, and significant technical advancements into the MB’s dual-crown, Trip-Tick format.
Proudly made in the UK
Great Britain has a wonderful history when it comes to watch making and has probably been the home to more advances in horology than any other nation. Bremont is determined to play a pivotal role in the reinvigoration of this industry on British shores. Every Bremont is hand built and tested before leaving the Henley-on-Thames workshop.
Description
The Altitude MB Meteor is the most advanced evolution of Bremont’s iconic MB series.
Named after the Gloster Meteor — Britain’s very first jet fighter, and the aircraft used for Martin-Baker’s original live ejection test in 1946 — it features a lightweight and durable 42mm Grade 2 titanium case, refined Trip-Tick construction, and an upgraded Roto-Click inner bezel.
The three-part Trip-Tick case has been re-engineered with a slimmer profile and reduced lug-to-lug distance for improved comfort. The dual crowns – one at 2 o’clock for winding and setting, and one at 4 o’clock for operating the bi-directional inner bezel – have been optimised for ergonomics and utility, delivering a much smoother operation. The inner bezel’s Roto-Click technology has also been re-engineered, ensuring effortless and precise action with the pure, satisfying click familiar to MB owners.
The dial is designed for absolute legibility with applied Super-LumiNova® indexes, and subtle stencilled detailing. The watch retains one of the MB’s most iconic features: the ‘lollipop’ seconds hand counterbalanced by a looped ‘ejection’ pull handle in white and black stripes.
Beneath the surface, the BB14, 68-hour power reserve movement is suspended within a flexible rubber mount to absorb shocks and minimise impacts. The Altitude MB Meteor has an open case-back, revealing the movement’s fine finishing in gunmetal grey with Geneva Stripes. The open case-back retains the anti-magnetic shielding, which is provided by a soft iron ring around the movement, based on Faraday Cage principles.
For the Altitude MB Meteor, Bremont introduces a new bracelet design, crafted in brushed titanium. Featuring quick-release functionality and engineered for maximum flexibility, it is secured with curved bars that enable smooth articulation and exceptional comfort.
The Altitude MB Meteor is built for those who push limits.

Bremont is an award-winning British company producing beautifully engineered chronometers at our Headquarters in Henley on Thames, England. Time began for Bremont when we embarked on a journey to make beautifully crafted pilot’s watches of exceptional quality. Flying historic aircraft has been in our blood from an early age, as has our love for watches and all things mechanical. The timepieces had to be tested beyond any normal call of duty (and not just in the workshop), and of course be immensely precise and durable. We make our watches to a very high specification for the price point and every watch in our standard range is Chronometer certified. We stand by our product and are one of the few companies offering a 3 year warranty on every watch we produce. We hope you get the same satisfaction as us when you try on a Bremont.
