The Palmer is an almost minimalist addition to Farer's best-selling GMT collection. After the success of the original 39mm variant, Farer is pleased to follow up with a new 36mm edition. With its pearlescent opaline dial, the Palmer has a useful GMT function for tracking a second time zone and a high-contrast dial that's easy to read. The baton hour markers are Lumicast, a blend of Super-LumiNova and ceramic that produces solid luminous blocks These are then overprinted with black onto their tops so that they're perfectly legible in daylight as well as darkness. These batons are paired with a black syringe handset that's also filled with ice-blue Super-LumiNova. The 24-hour scale for use with the short GMT hand is printed inside the batons, and both the GMT hand and scale are a vibrant teal so that they can be picked out at a glance. The last splash of colour is provided by the orange seconds hand, tipped with the Farer A, and matching orange minute markers at the end of each applied baton.
As such a minimalist watch, the Palmer stands somewhat apart from the other GMTs, which is why this model is a limited edition of only 200 pieces, with 100 available in the initial batch.
FEATURES
One Dial, Two Time Zones - The Palmer is equipped with a GMT function, which allows the wearer to track a second time zone.
Night Light - Not only are the hands filled with luminous Super-LumiNova, but the applied batons are moulded from solid blocks of Super-LumiNova. Together these provide unparalleled legibility in the dark.
Exhibitionist - The Palmer has a sapphire crystal exhibition case back, through which you can watch the beautiful Sellita SW330-2 movement tick away.
STORY
The Palmer GMT is named after Edward Henry Palmer (1840-1882), who was an English orientalist and explorer. He expressed an interest in other cultures from a young age and would study Middle Eastern cultures whilst at Cambridge University.
In 1869 he participated in a survey of Sina undertaken by the Palestine Exploration Fund, and the year after that he explored the desert of El-Tih on foot and unescorted by locals. After this Palmer returned to England, where he published several reports on his travels, and by 1871 he was married and the Lord Almoner's Professor of Arabic at Cambridge University.
In 1882 Palmer embarked on a journey to the Middle East in order to secure the neutrality of the Arab Sheiks in the ongoing Egyptian conflict known as the Urabi Revolt or the Urabi Revolution. It is whilst engaged in carrying out these negotiations that he and his party were ambushed and killed. His remains were recovered after the war and are now interred in St Paul’s Cathedral.
