Heaven knows our collective appetite for adventure is at fever pitch right now. Whether you want to set out on challenging terrain or spend time out on the water, Farer wants to equip you with the perfect timepiece, designed with versatility, simplicity, and reliability at its core. And this time, Farer has added a unique element to the classic field design with the use of a date pointer, creating character and function without compromising legibility. Sealed with a highly practical 200m water resistance rating and screw-down crown, this is an essential piece of kit for your next adventure.

DAY AND NIGHT

Each of the three models features a unique dial design, with use of high-contrast SLN Grade A luminescent for visibility in dark environments, and the new Farer 'A' marque date pointer fits in perfectly with the ergonomic design. Visibility is further enhanced with the use of a flat, strengthened sapphire crystal, treated with anti-reflective coating internally and externally, creating a highly legible but handsome adventure companion.

PURPOSEFUL DESIGN

Built to withstand tough conditions, the classically sized 38.5mm case design is cut from 316L marine-grade steel with exceptional corrosive resistance. The rugged case is framed by the clean lines of the distinctive fixed bezel in brushed finish with crown protector sides to shield from hard knocks. Inside is the Sellita 221-11 automatic movement, a rare complication with date hand function, 38-hour power reserve and in-built shock system. Flip it over, and you’ll see the highly polished case back highlights the individual production number of each watch and features Farer’s specially commissioned ON LAND AND WATER engraving.

ESSENTIAL KIT

Within the practical and reusable travel case are three specially designed straps for land and water: an American Horween leather strap with steel buckle, a waterproof nylon NATO strap and a '5 row' integrated 316 Marine-grade steel bracelet with tri-fold clasp. All straps come with an easy, quick release fitting system built, giving you ultimate versatility and allowing you to customise your tool watch to match any terrain.

Meet the watches

EXMOOR

The Exmoor's dial design is defined by the textured olive-green dial, creating a natural feel with overprinted numerals and brushed steel infilled hands in high-contrast off-white SLN Grade A Super-LumiNova, for maximum visibility in dark environments. The burnt orange date pointer utilises the Farer 'A' marque to create the perfect highlighter for the date as it moves around the outer date ring. The month end numbers are flipped in colour as a reminder of the different month ends, which can be reset with the quick date function.

LOMOND

The dark navy blue of the Lomond dial comes with a super matte finish, for minimal reflection and maximum clarity. The dial design is characterised by the overprinted alternate numerals and markers in off-white SLN Grade A Super-LumiNova, contrasting the brushed steel sword hands infilled in light orange Super-LumiNova. The beacon red date pointer hand utilises the Farer 'A' marque to create a highlighter for the date, as it moves around the outer engraved date ring, flipping over to the next date at midnight. The final month end numbers have been inverted from sky blue to red as a reminder to reset with the quick date function, completing a purpose-driven tool watch with classic Farer colour appeal.

PEMBROKE

The Pembroke is instantly recognisable by the matte white and navy-blue sector dial – a layout defined by its embossed concentric circle that segments the dial. The design gives a practical focus to the numerals and markers, which have been micro overprinted to build up a deep layering of pure white SLN Grade A Super-LumiNova. Sword-style brushed steel hands are infilled in mint Super-LumiNova, giving the dial a contemporary contrast. And like its collection cousins, the Air Force blue date pointer tip holds the Farer 'A' date marque, with month end numbers in red as a reminder to reset the month with the quick date set function. The new Pembroke is twist on a classic, that's ready for action today.
