Well seeing as Richard and Guy started it, I may as well carry on the theme.

What I find interesting to note is how our Bremont screw down crowns all align. I can’t comment on the others but can confirm my photo certainly hasn’t been staged by unscrewing the crown slightly for the photo.

Interesting, now that you mention it Iain, about the alignment of the screw down crowns. I certainly haven't tweaked mine.

I'm considering trying mine on a NATO but thinking that two layers of strap will be too much. Might resort to a single layer of a GasGasBones strap, on which the Bremont ones are modelled. :wink:

Have to admit, I moved my crown. :oops:

The original bremont velcro straps were produced by.... GGB. 8)

Doing a bit of running around in prep for a cross country move.
Funny it’s been mentioned recently, the logo on the screw down crown aligns exactly when screwed down, which is a small detail I appreciate.

I thought they were but, reading between the lines, are they not now?


Back to my Supermarine S2000, but this time on a GasGasBones strap.
