With F1H2O

Powerboat Racing is the most spectacular watersport in the world.

Formula 1 boats are machines as powerful as they are impressive, capable of accelerating much faster than race cars, going from 0-100 mph in just four seconds, and all this without the use of brakes in competitions.
Each race lasts around 45 minutes and takes place on a marked circuit on a lake, a river, a reservoir, or in a sheltered bay.

Sharing the same spirit of competition and passion for speed, BRM Chronographes is delighted to associate its colours with those of F1H2O, promoter of major global powerboat events, and has become the official timekeeper of the UIM F1H2O World Championship as well as a sponsor of the Pole Position Championship.

"BRM has been sponsoring jet skiing, motorsports and motorcycle racing for 11 years now at the highest levels. We decided to join F1H2O in order to add a new string to our bow by also adding the highest level of boating championships. What could be more natural for a company like ours than to become a partner of the toughest boating championship in the world?"

With Nasser Al Attiyah and Matthieu Baumel

Champions of the Dakar 2015, Nasser Al-Attiyah and Matthieu Baumel will be defending their title at the 2016 event. BRM Chronographes will be supporting them again this year on the trail of this legendary rally!

On the Sepang circuit

From 10 - 12 December, BRM Chronographes opened a pop-up boutique on the Sepang circuit. A great success, which once again strengthened the manufacture's presence on the other side of the world!

Step inside the beating heart of watchmaking

The one and only French watch manufacture, BRM is delighted to share a glimpse of its unique world with you.

Last month we revealed the secrets of BRM's machining process. This month, the adventure continues, and we are pleased to reveal the casing up techniques used in our ateliers...

At BRM, it is "from the excellence of the details that performance is born."

For this reason, the buckles on our straps have no fewer than 12 components, instead of the three usually used for luxury watches. Over 20 transfers are required to make a watch dial. 


For the hands, Bernard Richards could have settled for the hundreds of options offered by sub-contractors, but he would not hear of it, and designed perforated hands that would not be out of place on the finest pedal units of transalpine carmakers.

The watches' assembly screws are also specific, machined to a hundredth of a millimetre's tolerance, it takes almost 12 times as long to machine them as normal. Lastly, all the key tasks, from fitting to assembly, to setting to polishing, are done by hand.

Follow us next month to find out about the art of finishes on BRM watches!

Winner of the FIA Formula 3 Championship 2015

Winner of the FIA Formula 3 Championship 2015, a second consecutive victory at the Macau Grand Prix, what a good season! How do you feel?

I am very proud of my achievements this year, and for me it was the best way to end my F3 career. Starting favourite, I knew I had a major challenge ahead of me this year, but things could not have gone better!

What is on the agenda for 2016?

Nothing is sure for the moment, I am trying to keep a wide range of options open for 2016. I am looking mainly to GP2 or Indy (Lights). One thing is certain; I want to continue to race in "open wheel" events, as I feel that I am not finished with that field yet.

What goal have you set yourself now?

My goal is to continue to win races and to be a success, whatever I do, but I also want to lay even more solid foundations to properly prepare for a future professional career.

You joined the BRM family two years ago now: a word on this?

The first time I met Bernard, I didn't know very much about watches, but since the day he showed me his atelier, I have really begun to appreciate the craftsmanship that goes into these small but magnificent devices! I hope that our collaboration will be long and fruitful!
