Farer World Timers are intricately designed to show you an uninterrupted view of 24 key cities across the globe in a single glance. A clever mechanism, based on Sir Sandford Fleming’s revolutionary system of worldwide time zones - first proposed in 1879. The Scottish-born Canadian inventor recommended that the world be divided into time zones, each spaced 15 degrees of longitude apart.

For example, it’s 10:10AM in London.
Gently pull out the main crown two positions. Turn the crown until the correct time is displayed. Push the crown back in.
For example, it’s New York.
Gently turn the second offset crown until the desired city on the outer bezel is positioned directly beneath the 6.
For example, New York is 5 hours behind London so the 24 hour time is set to 5AM.
Gently pull out the main crown out one position. Turn the crown clockwise to advance the inner disk until the correct 24 hour time is positioned above the 6 and the second time zone. Push the crown back in.
This simultaneously sets the correct time for all 24 world time zones by aligning the inner disk 24 hour time with the outer bezel 24 global cities.
Each dial in the collection is based around a single Farer World Timer design concept. The original vision for the design was to deliver ultimate clarity while showing off intricate levels of craftsmanship. From micro piqué patterns to applied solid blocks of Super-LumiNova - real attention to detail had gone into the execution of each dial. And with over 40 steps in the manufacturing process to create one of these dials (in comparison an industry standard would be more like 14), these watches aim to please even the sharpest horolicial eye.
The Farer World Timers are held in a 39mm diameter case with a slim depth of just a 11mm, while drop lugs keep the case snug to the wrist for a comfortable every day fit. Made from 316L stainless steel and treated in multiple finishes, with an outer brushed bezel and highly polished case edges that outline micro-blasted case side cut-ins and follow around to the dropped lugs. Our flush fitting top domed sapphire crystal has been anti-reflective treated internally for full clarity of the bi-directional World Timer bezel underneath.
The reverse of the Farer World Timers have a highly polished stainless steel four-screw case back with flat sapphire exhibition glass, through which the decorated Swiss-made movement instantly stands out. Our love of bold colour continues right down to the movement on this watch with our bespoke matte red line-cut designed rotor. Driven by the increasingly rare ETA 2893-1 Elaboré movement with universal hour indicator disc, date and once fully wound approximately 48 hours of power reserve.
We design our watches meticulously in London before they are handmade, without compromise in Switzerland. That's why we offer a 60-month / 5-year movement guarantee on all Farer watch movements - if anything does go wrong then we’ll be happy to repair or replace it.
