Fears Brunswick salmon arrived - lovely!

Hi, Gang, I wanted to share with you all some initial impressions of the Fears Brunswick salmon that arrived today. It's a lovely and classy piece, not quite salmon, sort of copper/salmon, with a subtle sparkle. As petite and well-proportioned as I had hoped, given my teeny (6") wrists, and well finished. The hands have an elegant and delicate structure, and just that little pop of blue. The indices are really very cool, brushed graphite and they stand out against the dial with great depth. The strap is a soft leather that seems like it will break in nicely - not too thick or thin. The case itself, like so many others have described it, is soft and rounded like a comfortable pebble that's been worn over time to smoothness. And it's slim, easily fitting under a cuff.

Their presentation was really VERY nice, gift wrapped in a fancy paper with a ribbon, a lovely dark stained wooden box that really looks a cut above, then some cool info booklets, and a little thank-you note from Nicholas.

You can tell they've gone the extra mile to make it feel special, and they want the customer to feel great about their new bauble - it's really a beautiful watch. I'll snap some pics soon. In the meantime, I'm really pleased with it! I believe Nicholas is on Watchcrunch somewhere, and if so, thank you for the lovely addition to the collection.

Best Regards,

Marshall

Beautiful watch. I ended up wearing mine on the Fears bracelet the most. Such as easy wear, and fantastic finishing. My favorite part was how the crystal *perfectly* curves into the case when viewed from the side.

Nice. Got my eye on the flamingo pink myself.

Congratulations!!! I love to hear this. I have ordered mine as well finally. I have small wrists as well so I'm so happy to hear you are loving it. I'm as excited about this one as any of my Grails!! I just think the look and detail on this dial are phenomenal!

Hey, congrats to you, too! The fit is so comfy and it fits small and cozy, just such a lovely little piece. I did switch up the strap to a beautiful graphite grey suede by Veblenist that ties in well with the indices.

I am psyched to hear what you think of the watch when it arrives, so please keep us posted! :)

Thank you!! Yes. I can see the Grey suede working perfectly. Can’t wait to see your shots. And yes. I’ll let you know my thoughts as well!
