A Fresh Look At A Classic Complication - The Farer Moonphase Collection

  • The moonphase is one of the oldest and most beautiful complications in watchmaking. In fact, clocks that tracked the lunar cycle have been made since the early Renaissance. And, at Farer, we like to think that we can always be relied upon to take a fresh approach to watch design. So, when we decided to create our own moonphase collection, we set out to put our signature spin on this well-trodden complication. The result is a range of three watches that each offer a slightly different take on the Moonphase complication.
    You can read more about the Moonphase collection on the Farer website here: bit.ly/3ZijFga
    Launched in 2015, Farer is an independent British watch company driven by a horological passion for detail, design, and most importantly, difference. We are extremely proud to be part of a new generation of watchmakers playing a (small) part in defining the future of an industry with such a legacy.

    The fact that Farer have made the effort to put a border around the date window when far more expensive brands just don't seem to bother speaks volumes

    This is THE collection that made me a customer. Ordered the Halley on mesh bracelet and can’t wait! Tip: Next time thoroughly clean the watch before recording macro footage. :)

      Great choice..this too is my first Farer purchase and I too got that exact same combination. Managed to bag the serial number of the month of my birth. Can’t wait till it arrives.

    These watches are really nice looking. I grabbed the Eddington since it fulfills my collection's need of salmon dial and a moonphase watch. Great job Farer, and keep up the great work!

    I have the Halley on order, it's my second Farer after the Helca titanium aquacompressor. I absolutely love my Helca and the quality of the watch is top notch. Now I just can't wait to get hands on with my Halley!

    The Burbidge is unequivocally unique and gorgeous. Unusual moonphase implementation with a striking colour palette and a really interesting case design with lots of textures and detailed touches? I'm all for it. I'm even tempted. Yet, I also realise this must be for a different phase in my life where I might have time to fiddle with my watches a lot more. This is handwound, so every time I'd like to put it on it would need winding, setting the time, setting the date, and setting the moonphase. It strikes me that the most attractive moonphase watch would be one with a six day power reserve, so one day a week, or on a night out, you take out this very special specimen without any hassle and enjoy it. It's not really a flaw that it is not. Naturally as an occasional watch, the handwound movement preserves it, as well. I just wonder if in my current life where things are best quick nad uncomplicated, it would find its way onto my wrist as much as it should. And can I really justify spending this amount on a watch that won't likely be an everyday piece? That all said, I still desire one, and applaud the audacious design.

      It depends on how small you're after. But we do a 36mm Three Hand and a 36mm GMT collection that works on both men and women.
