“Excellent, rapid and friendly service. Would be a very nice watch, but the lack of a bezel means it needs to be a 38mm watch not a 40 mm watch. The fascinating lume is the watch's party trick but it doesn't last all that long. Shame that the caseback isn't engraved. Otherwise a good first attempt at selling and distinguishing itself within a crowded market.”

“I have admired Farer for some time now, the company ethics, the designs, the backstories to each product series, and the attention to detail and manufacture. After very long deliberation I chose to buy a Crooms II and I am delighted with it! The purchase was easy, delivery quick and the packaging and presentation excellent. The dial, case and crystal all work in perfect harmony together, and the dial colour(s) and sunray effect are just beautiful. The hands are sharp and clear, the lume is bright, the crown is a delight to operate and the whole thing is a beautiful and tactile experience. In short, it feels special and looks special. Why did I give four stars and not five? Two minor niggles. Firstly I find the date window just a bit too small, I have to make a very conscious effort to look at it rather than just being able to read it with a quick glance. Secondly, and slightly more annoying to my OCD style brain, the GMT hand is a tiny fraction misaligned, and I do mean a tiny bit. However the result is than when the minute and hour hands exactly line up at 4pm, for example, the GMT hand is just a fraction off-centre at the 16.00 indices. Only the tiniest fraction but enough so that I noticed it. That said, it's a gorgeous watch and I will definitely be purchasing another Farer model in the future.”

“I bought a Farer Cayley Azur and I have to say, the watch itself is great. But just with another leather strap. I‘ve around 12 watches and this strap is nearly the cheapest feeling and looking strap on a stock watch with such a price tag. On the website it‘s called leather but it‘s just cheap genuine leather that feels like plastic. For me, it‘s a keeper, but not with one of the original watch bands. Best regards”

Hi Thilo, Thank you for your review. With regards to the strap you selected, Lion Granolo. This is made in the famous SIS factory in southern France. The SIS leather business is the primary supplier to Louis Vuitton and we are using identical leather skins as they are. So whilst you may not appreciate the strap in its style, the quality is not in doubt. Regards Farer Watch Co

“Love my Erebus, even better in the metal than the pictures. Lightning fast delivery, good comms. Farer is right up there with the best of British watch brands.”

“I choose the swan with a blue strap and the combo works well. The watch is stunning to look at both front and back. The pushers have a very positive feel compared to my other 3 mechanical Chronos. The only issues I have with the watch are, the white frame around the date window seems too bold. Subdials cut too deeply into the hour numerals, I'm still debating with myself on that one. The outer track below the blue numerals are burgundy dots, this level of attention to detail should be more noticeable, especially when I like it. I only can see them with a 10X magnifier. Feel a little bit mean not to give the swan 5 stars.”

“My Farer Lander Midnight is a wonderful watch. Most of us are probably purchasing Farer watches for their eye-catching and appealing designs. The Lander Midnight is a bit more subdued, which I love. I am happy with the upgraded Sellita movement (SW330-2 Top Grade). The only reason for the 4 stars is that the USD price of $1,450 still seems a little bit steep for the watch as a whole. $1,100 or $1,200 could be more pallatable. That comment aside, I am extremely happy with my Farer Lander Midnight, and hope to wear it for a long time.”

“It would have been 5 stars but for the reality of the blue dial not being accurately depicted on the website. Not a major issue but a little bit disappointing. Otherwise it looks like a good product and timed my first flight with it very clearly.”

“Beautiful, well finished, reasonable price, and altogether balanced watch. Two points could be better, case could be 1-2 mm bigger and the steel bracelete could have better adjustment. Overall, loved!”

“Very efficient service from Farer. Purchased the Aqua Compressor Hecla II. Was surprised how good the watch looked in real life. The watch is very wearable and versatile. Will take me from the boardroom to the beach.”

“It is a good looking watch, and quite distinctive. As you would expect it keeps good time. My only criticism is that it is quite thick for my wrist.”

“Farer Elvington II Fly-back Chronograph. A very rare thing.. The watch comes in a box with a very tasteful hand-inscribed thanks you for your purchase. Nice touch. Farer is one of the top brands of micro / boutique next to Christopher Ward, Monta, etc. The first thing that strikes the eye is obviously the dial. On which everything fits beautifully, from sub-dials, painted indexes, date window, hands and markings on the edge of dial. Sapphire glass spans everything perfectly. The crown is partially made of bronze - the hallmarks of Farer. Case - it's superbly made, in most facets have horizontal and vertical, with polished accents. Pushers have a great movement, you can have the impression that it is a mechanical flyback which already costs a lot more. Impressions - watch has great dimensions. 40mm / 45mmL2L / 11mm thickness / 20mm between the lugs. This makes watch sits very comfortably on wrist. Unusual color accents are unique and gives the watch fresh vibe. There is nothing similar on the market with Swiss-made trade mark. Alternatives and price. Price watch a stiff 530 pounds. It's still the cheapest proposal of this mechanism. Next up is the flyback Certina DS2 which costs upwards of £ 700, however, is much larger (43mm) and for me not unique as the Farer. Besides Certina this mechanism can be found in the Breitling Evo Chronospace Night, here is a price of £ 2500. Mechanical equivalent cost you minimum 4500 pounds upwards for the Swiss "Heritage". On the downsides is the lack of anti-reflection coatings on glass. A bit of shame..for this price. Anyway I still recommend!”

“I have now bought two Farer watches and they are both beautifully made and handsome watches. Delivery was quick and well packaged. The only, very small, negative was a lack of delivery notifications so I was not at home when delivery was attempted.”

“Watch design itself is good. But lack of final touch detailing, such as my watch with white dust/dirty inside the water at inner side of the glass. The rotor is quite loud. I ordered a serial number but came with no specific number that I ordered. I ordered with name but came with no engraving. Didn’t border to send back. First order delivery was fast and good. Second order of only strap is bad, as website say free delivery worldwide, but got charged a delivery. Not sure why as I thought maybe I chose a fast delivery option. But end up just the standard Royal Mail. And still didn’t receive it yet.”

“Early days but this Erebus is for me a watch of plusses and minuses. Studying the watch in the hand, it is magnificent. A beautiful timepiece of high quality manufacture. The finishing is excellent. Sadly for me this does not carry through onto the wrist. The strap is too short and I cannot get the watch to sit comfortably. The biggest problem though is readability. The elements that make the watch so appealing when placed on a flat surface, the materials, the style of the hands and indices, all combine to make reading the time very difficult at least for me. I also find the glass very reflective. I also have to learn to love the red pointer on the second hand. I was so sure I would love this watch, but now.....Like I said. Early days but I have a feeling this is not going to be a keeper.”

“Ainsdale II : Dial was slightly disappointing re the gloss finish not liquid smooth reflection rather some texture fom i presume the pad printing. In retrospect would have chosen a different version. However i really like the colour scheme. Sorry but not a patch on the Moritz dial.”

“Very pleased. Continues to look very stylish two years on. Just two slight gripes (I) the two leather loops on the strap have recently broken, meaning I’ve had to shell out for a new strap; and (II) it doesn’t keep going for that long if you keep it off your wrist (c. 12 hours) - although this might be normal for an automatic watch, this is the first one I’ve owned”
