Gary “wingman” Connery
Stunt Man
Bremont are delighted to be supporting Henley based stunt man Gary Connery in preparation for his biggest stunt yet. In April 2012 Gary plans to make a new world record in being the first man ever to jump out of a helicopter with a wingsuit and land without deploying a parachute. Not only will Gary be a fantastic ambassador for the brand in testing the timepieces ‘beyond endurance’ becoming yet another adventurer of sorts to test the Bremont timepieces in the ‘field’ but the aviation link is also particularly fitting.
