Question: anyone had experience with Farer?

I’ve always liked the funky aesthetics of Farer and the unique colors, wanted to know if folks here have had any experience with the brand - good, bad or otherwise?

Seems like they are getting more attention on YT with the review channels, which is great - would love to see more reviews on these pieces.

My first watch was a Silver Oxley GMT and have loved it.  If you are looking for value from a spec perspective only there are probably "better buys," but they have a unique lane that they execute very, very well.  I've been very happy with mine - it still gets a lot of wrist time, and definitely gets the most "what's that? it looks so nice!"

Hi @0_btyc_0 . To answer your question;: yes. I have one of their World Timers (Roche). I can whole heartedly recommend the brand. IMO they designs that appeal and are quite different/quirky compared to most watch companies. I’ve been to their showroom and spent an hour chatting with one of their directors. A really pleasant experience.

There’s plenty of reviews on the internet for you to make your own mind up.

I have the Segrave monopusher.  It is excellent.  The fit and finish are excellent.  I love how Farer uses colors on their dials.  I can’t imaging that you would be disappointed going with. Farer.  They seem to keep their dimensions fairly universal for most wrist sizes as well.

Yeah, bought the Lomond on leather strap last year. It is a well built and attractive/idiosyncratic little watch that sits pretty. It functions well within the acceptable time keeping parameters. Purchase and delivery was completed with impressive celerity and I was kept appraised of its progress by Farer.

This was  my favorite orrand for a while and have about 7 or 8 but when I ordered the world timer, I couldn[t make out the letters , as the dial I thought , was way too small. I sent itback and got a terse note saying they had sold 300 of them and no one complained about making out the cities, it turned me off
