The Bremont Hawking Limited Edition watch epitomizes classic elegance with a touch of cosmic significance. Boasting a retrograde seconds hand and grand date, its distinctive feature lies in the incorporation of four wooden discs from Stephen Hawking’s desk, a place where he contemplated the mysteries of the universe. These discs, cherished possessions of Hawking, are inlaid into the watch’s back. The chronometer also contains meteorite, symbolizing the cosmos, visible through the hand-finished closed case back adorned with an etching of stars from the night sky in Oxford on January 8, 1942 — the birthdate of Hawking.
Further personalizing this horological masterpiece, the watch’s serial number is imprinted on paper from the original 1979 research paper titled “The ‘nuts’ and ‘bolts’ of gravity,” co-authored by Hawking and Professor Gary Gibbons. With only 388 stainless steel, 88 rose gold, and 88 white gold watches in production, the numbers pay homage to the year of the publication of Hawking’s seminal work, “Brief History of Time” — 1988. The watch combines an alligator leather strap with a 41mm stainless steel case housing a modified calibre 11 1/2′ BE-33-AE boasting 29 jewels and a 42-hour power reserve. The domed anti-reflective scratch-resistant sapphire crystal protects the Superluminova-coated dial hands, offering a harmonious blend of craftsmanship, tribute, and cosmic inspiration.
