Patrick Bremer founded BREMOIR because of a passion for Art Deco design and an admiration for the courage, creativity, and innovation of the period. The Streamline Moderne aesthetic resonates one hundred years later because it shares our modern appreciation of geometric shapes, tasteful colors, and simple yet sophisticated design.
BREMOIR’s debut wristwatch, The Lexington, is inspired by the Chrysler Building in New York City. This limited-edition timepiece is powered by a Swiss automatic movement, which is visible through an exhibition case. It comes alive in the evening thanks to the clever application of Swiss Super-Luminova, which is designed to mimic the building's illuminated spire at night. The watch is also water resistant to 50 meters / 165 feet. This particular model, The Tuxedo, features a deep black dial and leather strap, which allow the brushed, silver chapter ring to pop, and complement the elegant stainless-steel case.
While many watches with such direct inspiration attempt to do too much, the BREMOIR Lexington captures beautifully the essence not just of the Art Deco movement, but of the Chrysler Building itself, seamlessly incorporating the building’s most recognizable features. The result is a simply gorgeous dress watch.
