Titanium Series<br/>Aqua Compressor™ Automatics

Titanium Series
Aqua Compressor™ Automatics

You never have to venture far on our British islands before you hit water. But our seas are under huge pressure, increasingly busy, noisy and polluted. So, for the launch of our Titanium Series Aqua Compressor dive watches, based on a mutual love and respect for the water - we are supporting the marine conservation charity Hebridean Whale and Dolphin Trust. To help protect the fragile state of our sealife through their programme of research. Creating meaningful change for the future of Scottish Hebridean marine life.

For every Aqua Compressor dive watch sold, we will donate £25 of the profits to the HWDT charity research programme, totalling £22,500 for the whole collection.

Thank you for your support.

TITANIUM DESIGN

HIGH STRENGTH

Our low weight Titanium Series Aqua Compressor case has an excellent strength-to-weight ratio, delivering the same strength as steel at 40% its weight.

The key features of a classic Super-Compressor case design: twin crowns, screwed on case back, compressed O’ring gasket, internal rotating bezel are all present. However the design has evolved the specifications of the original system which was created when the water resistance of watches was a big challenge.

With the progress of modern materials, we have gone through a whole series of developments to create a very compact but highly technically capable dive watch case. Now tried and tested to exacting modern standards to be taken to depths of 300m / 1000ft.

WATER RESISTANCE

The 300m / 1000ft water resistance rating of the Farer Aqua Compressor watch case has been designed to be secured at the following places utilising the compression principle: as the water pressure on the outside of the case increases, the gaskets are naturally compressed so that the case becomes more water resistant the deeper you dive. 

FRONT CRYSTAL

The sapphire double curved front crystal (1) has a thickness of 2.3mm to resist the pressure of diving at depth. The front crystal is secured by a rectangular cross section gasket (2) with a width of 0.5mm and height of 1.1mm.

MOVEMENT CROWN

The movement crown (3) has 2 O’ring gaskets (4) within the tube. These two gaskets secure the water resistance to 100m/330ft when the crown is unscrewed. By screwing the crown an additional flat gasket (5) is compressed and secures the water resistance of the case up to the full 300m / 1000ft related water pressures.

BEZEL CROWN

The bezel crown (6) has the same features of water resistance as the movement crown, two o’ring gaskets (7) and one flat gasket (8).

SCREW BACK CASE

The case back (9) utilises an O’ring gasket. The case back is screwed down to the case and the gasket is compressed vertically.

BACK CRYSTAL

The thickness of the flat sapphire crystal exhibition back (10) is 1.6 mm to resist the high pressure. The back exhibition crystal has a similar rectangular cross section gasket (11) to the front crystal gasket and works in the same way. The thickness of the gasket remains the same but its height is 1.4 mm.

DIVE FUNCTION

Whether you’re looking for a dive buddy or a go-everywhere timepiece, the specification and hypoallergenic finish of the Titanium Series Aqua Compressor collection delivers a set of highly wearable and robust tool watches. Developed to put clarity at the forefront, the dial designs are a bold take on the Farer classic. With oversized split minute hand marking, used for quick identification of time elapsed against the internal bezel.

SUPER-LUMINOVA

As a diver, clarity and accuracy is paramount. Each Titanium Series Aqua Compressor dive watch has a series of high contrast dial colours and Super-LumiNova detailing to show the core information. It works like a light storage battery, where light charges the surface and afterwards the light is continuously emitted. Mixed with a specific binder, Swiss Super-LumiNova is applied on all Aqua Compressor dials and hands.

NATURAL RUBBER

Modern and ergonomic, natural rubber is a supremely comfortable fit on the wrist. Each Aqua Compressor is supplied with a natural rubber thick-edged strap, finished with a secure oversized titanium tool buckle featuring the Farer ‘A’ and wave pattern detailing inner grip. Whether you wear for an aquatic-based or a land-based physical activity, natural rubber is the perfect sweat-wicking material.

TITANIUM STRENGTH

The Titanium Series is lighter and tougher than its stainless steel counterparts, and along with its extremely corrosive-resistant properties makes the perfect material for a dive watch. The case engineering is designed around the compression principle: as the water pressure on the outside of the case increases, gaskets built around the key areas are naturally compressed, so that the case becomes more water resistant the deeper you dive.

TWIN CROWNS

The twin crowns are screw-down, spring-back release with their own gaskets, allowing the watch to be taken to depths of 300m / 1000ft. The signature Farer solid bronze crown allows you to adjust the time and features the Farer ‘A’ carved out of a squared texture for feel. The titanium crown allows you to adjust the internal dive time bezel, with the classic Super-Compressor hatching detail for feel.

UNI-DIRECTIONAL BEZEL

Compressor watches have always had a more modern and sleek look than the conventional divers, allowing the lines of the case to merge with the crystal. The unidirectional internal bezel under the crystal is for the measurement of dive time, moving by increments of one minute. The bezel utilises a precision ratchet safety system which disconnects the feed from crown to bezel by only turning it anti-clockwise, preventing any increase in the diving time.

TRUSTED MOVEMENT EXHIBITION BACK BESPOKE ROTOR

TRUSTED MOVEMENT

The Titanium Series Aqua Compressor collection is powered by the Swiss-made SELLITA SW200-1 Elaboré Non-Date Movement. This is a rare piece from SELLITA, in that it features no ‘ghost date’ within the mechanics to make this 100% functional for the diver’s needs. A highly reliable workhorse movement, adjusted in three positions.

EXHIBITION BACK

Not ones to hide anything away, we believe quality movements should be seen and appreciated. We have developed a screw down back case to hold the flat sapphire crystal exhibition glass, both utilising compressor gaskets to secure the water resistance and withstand the high pressures to 300m/1000ft. Each watch is individually numbered around the exhibition glass, making your watch unique to you.

BESPOKE ROTOR

Turning over the Titanium Series Aqua Compressor case you’ll see the bespoke SELLITA rotor has been detailed in a raised bronze overprinting technique with the Farer submersible three wave design and lettering. As an Elaboré movement it has been finished with snailing (or as the French say more eloquently ‘Perlage’), a round fine detailed decoration on the metal to beautifully catch the light. Powering a 38 hour reserve when the movement is fully wounded.
