Farer is my favorite microbrand by far. One of these pilots will soon be joining the five other Farer pieces in my collection. Paul is right about buying more than one model in a different color-way. Great business strategy, works on me! Great interview!
I can't say enough about Farer. I met Paul at the 2018 W&W watch fair in NYC where I bought the Farer Supercompressor 300M Diver. One of my favorites in my collection. I have to commend Farer's design choice to keep their logo very small on their dials. It really helps to keep the dial aesthetic clean and allow the wearer to focus on their gorgeous dials. My favorite micro brand as well! Love this new aviator design as well.
Great watches, awful after sales support. Five emails trying to get my Pendine working again after two years daily-wearing - just stopped. No response to my attempts to contact them.
Maybe I’m boring, but I find the different lume colors (fauxtina aside) between the hands and dial markings jarring. Between that and the upper half Roman/lower half Arabic numerals, it’s just trying a bit too hard.
