BRM V7-38 and V6-44 Union Jack Watches

A French watch brand making a British themed timepiece? Say you what?! It is true. Perhaps ancient rivalries don't last forever. High-end independent French watch maker BRM is about to release a new set of two watches with the Union Jack on the dial, and the design theme of the flag. The watch is really quite cool, and I think important for BRM. The neat race car and motor sports technology themed brand was shining for a while by failed to innovate over the last few years. While this watch isn't new technically - just a new design on it - it helps make the brand hip again.

The watch will come in two sizes and be under two different model names. Both pieces have steel cases, the 44mm wide version is going to the V6-44 Union Jack, and the 38mm wide version will be the V7-38 Union Jack. With the flag design being a stylish look in pop culture, the piece is due to be of interest outside of the UK as well. However, the piece is said to launch exclusively in the UK. Likely to be a limited edition, but I am not sure of how many pieces, or the price. Love that red, white, and blue leather strap.
