    These watches really stand alone at a unique cross roads of quality combined with modern design and utility. Love the Farers.

    Would love to own a Farer watch. Beautiful lineup and the Aquamatic lineup is a brilliant use of color.

    So pleased to see Farer doing well and pushing themselves with new releases. I would certainly consider one as they offer a good choice of designs are well spec'd and great value. My only concern is the size issue as I have large wrists.

    Really enjoyed the interview and great to see Farer doing well and going from strength to strength. I love their design ethos and styling and would honestly love to own one at some point.

    Loving this release, had to buy the teal one as soon as I saw it

      👍🏼 I did the same. Absolutely love it. I also added the orange leather strap. Pops real nice.

    well done on this interview James. it was a pleasure to meet Paul at RedbarBristol on Sunday. These are super legible and have great splashes of colour to boot. You could take 'Farer' off the dial and still know they were from Farer.

      Cheers mate! Yeah, I think these are great releases.

    Excellent interview, very enjoyable and informative; Farer do seem to be well established now and have carved out their own niche for very well considered and designed watches, long may it continue.

    • @12and60
      @12and60  2 роки тому

      Thanks! And I agree. They've established a clear design language that's unique and recognizable as theirs.

    Recently bought my first Farer watch (36mm GMT pink) and after one week, still very happy. The colours pop. Lume isn't as good as my ORIS BC3, but OK, not the end of the world. Very good customer service.

    • @12and60

      Glad you're pleased with it, because I now work for them! 😅

    Was able to visit their office today and select the teal, as well as the Lander, both absolutely gorgeous. So excited about this brand.

    • @12and60

      Great choices! I hope you enjoy them both! 👌🏻

    Day/Date, lume and these straps are huge win for me! Amazing piece

    This guy comes across as a genuine watch enthusiast.
    Great interview.
    I’m not keen on the watch though sadly, I prefer their GMT and Aquacompressor.

    • @12and60
      @12and60  2 роки тому +1

      Yeah, Paul is a really down to earth genuine guy. He's just here to make great watches with original designs for a fair price.

    Got the cribbar on now. The finish on the dial is really nice.

    Looks like another high quality watch from Farer! I have a couple of reservations: One, the day/date gives off seiko 5 vibes (i.e. cheapens the watch a bit) and spoils the symmetry. And the second issue is the thickness, 12mm for 45 lug to lug makes it a bit chunky. If they slimmed it down and maybe just kept just the date, they'd have a winner!

    the Thurso is my particular favorite. Looks like I'll have to wait for the next batch, though

    These collection is very special. They will be sold out soon.

  • @panorama4526

    Just ordered a Thurso. I ´m always looking for day date divers, and this has an aluminum bezel, 200m WR, a decent movement, great lume, or so they say… We ´ll see very soon.
    But the italic line on the dial is the best.

  • @mr.stinker9335
    @mr.stinker9335 Рік тому

    I got the thurso. I absolutely love this watch. I can’t decide what to get next. The gmt or aqua compressor

    For those who have this watch: is the flat sapphire crystal lackluster? Any curvature there?

    If it had a coin edge bezel, the design would be perfect for me.
