If you happen to’ve been following Worn & Wound for any size of time, it ought to come as no shock that we’re large followers of Fears Watch Firm. For the reason that model’s revival — Fears launched its first Twenty first-century watch in 2016, although the identify has been round since 1846 — they’ve constantly captured fanatic consideration because of a collection of refined, eye-catching, and fully trendy releases. Suffice it to say, when Fears tells us one thing new is coming down the pike, we have a tendency to concentrate.
In the present day, they’ve re-teamed with Topper Jewelers, the small family-owned Silicon Valley jeweler recognized for his or her stellar collaborations and restricted editions, for what simply could also be one in all their greatest releases up to now, the Fears Brunswick 38 Topper Version ‘Silver Sector.’
The Silver Sector is a slight departure from the 2 earlier collaborations we’ve seen from the partnership between the Bristol-based watchmaker and Topper, buying and selling the California dials that set earlier releases aside for a clear and modern sector dial with sub-seconds impressed by watches produced by Fears within the ‘30s and ‘40s. The dial is completed with utilized markers and Fears’ signature skeleton syringe arms.
It’s a brand new search for Fears, and it really works brilliantly, providing a clear, monochromatic look with out sacrificing any of the model’s signature visible aptitude. And it’s gonna make for some killer wrist photographs and I desperately wish to see how this watch images by way of one thing like a Leica M-11 Monochrom.
