Isle of Man TT has appointed Bremont as its official watch and timing partner.
This year’s event will be the 100th meeting of the world-renowned race and Bremont’s first.
As the official timing partner, Bremont has teamed up with current senior TT champion Peter Hickman who is credited with the fastest lap ever recorded.
The British watchmaker is expecting him to put the mechanical timepieces through their paces.
Giles English, co-founder at Bremont, commented: “I have witnessed this spectacle a number of times and the energy and excitement is absorbing as you watch this wonderful combination of engineering excellence, bravery and talent. We are honoured that the TT asked Bremont to become a partner and play our small part in the history of this illustrious event.”
Peter Hickman, current TT senior champion, added: “Having Bremont as the official timekeeper works brilliantly; precision engineering and accuracy is key to the TT, qualities which can be found in all of Bremont’s watch collections.”
The Isle of Man TT or Tourist Trophy races are an annual motorcycle sport event run on the Isle of Man in May/June of most years since its inaugural race in 1907.
This makes your comment wrong that : This year’s event will be the 100th meeting of the world-renowned race
It did indeed start in 1907 but It’s the 100th meeting this year due to the 2 world wars and foot and mouth in 2001
