Argylle stars starring Bryce Dallas Howard (Jurassic World franchise) as Elly Conway, a reclusive author of a series of best-selling espionage novels, whose idea of bliss is a night at home with her computer and her cat, Alfie. But when the plots of Elly’s fictional books—which center on secret agent Argylle and his mission to unravel a global spy syndicate—begin to mirror the covert actions of a real-life spy organization, quiet evenings at home become a thing of the past.

Vaughn turned to Bremont once again for Argylle, seeking a watch partner to provide a variety of styles for the key characters: ‘Agent Argylle’, played by Henry Cavill; ‘Elly Conway’, played by Bryce Dallas Howard; ‘Aidan’, played by Sam Rockwell; ‘Alfred Solomon’, played by Samuel L Jackson; ‘Ritter’, played by Bryan Cranston; ‘Wyatt’, played by John Cena; and ‘Keira’, played by Ariana DeBose. Vaughn encouraged each actor to select a Bremont watch most-suited to their respective character to ensure an even deeper connection to their timepiece and to enhance the storytelling of their characters.

Taking inspiration from the film itself, Bremont has created The Bremont x Argylle Limited Edition Watch Collection comprised of three distinct timepieces, reflecting the movie’s key characters of Argylle, Aidan and Elly, while seamlessly translating the espionage intrigue onto the wrist. Each piece has been crafted with meticulous attention to detail and each is characterised by decorated dial designs featuring the iconic Argylle diamond pattern.

The Argylle Jet is based on a Bremont U-2, a 43mm fit-for-purpose and robust design originally created with the military following the development and dramatic success of the Bremont military air crew watch, produced in association with Martin-Baker (MB). The U-2 chronometer takes the most advanced elements of an MB including the anti-shock rubberised movement mount; designed to withstand the MB ejection programme, but also added functionality. In line with these functions, the high-performance Argylle Jet is executed in DLC treated stainless steel with a trip-tick case construction and a jet-black barrel, reflecting the stealth nature of the characters by which it is inspired. Housing a 38-hour power reserve and a date function at 3 o’clock, the black Argylle patterned dial is punctuated by blue hour, minute and seconds hands filled with vintage super-luminova, in line with Bremont’s most iconic stealth designs. The second hand is tipped in vibrant yellow in a nod to the film’s colour palate.

The 34mm timepiece reveals an exhibition case back and carries a 50-hour power reserve and a date function at 6 o’clock.
