    New Farer hand-wound chronograph

    Quite tasty these... seems a well-designed set of watches.

    Looks great but I wish it had a solid caseback. It's a functional movement in Elabore grade. Why then add some perlage and blue screws? It's display-back finishing and I would rather they spent the money on a higher grade movement behind a solid caseback. Display backs for everyday movements are like bicycle stabilisers. Great for your first bike but you don't need it after you've learnt to ride.

    I agree, they make nice looking watches. The all white chrono just announced look quite unique also, it's a nice combo.

    A chap I know has one on a cushion (called an Aqua Compressor now I look). Is a lovely thing; nicely proportioned and well finished. Good for the money if you must have new and if you’re not going to get tied up on manufacturer cachet.

    Looking at the site, long guarantee and potential engraving. Decent proposition. Hope they make it long term.

    Great looking watches.

    My choices out of the three.

    The same movement but in top grade, for example. Or the Sellita equivalent to the ETA top grade. Substance over style, please!
