Introducing Farer Releases a Smaller Take on Its Cushion Case

One of Farer’s strongest qualities is its touch. The British brand knows how to make a watch feel playful without ever compromising its seriousness on the technical side. Even its more unconventional designs are grounded in modern-day proportions, solid specifications, and an understanding of how small details can completely shape the feeling of a watch on the wrist. That is exactly what has made the brand so appealing to collectors looking for something with more life than the average everyday mechanical watch.

Among the more distinctive parts of Farer’s catalogue is the Cushion Case collection, which first appeared in 2022. It offered a softer, more sculptural alternative to the brand’s rounder watches, introducing a silhouette with greater presence and stronger visual character. With its latest releases, Farer returns to that shape in a smaller format, introducing the new 35mm Cushion Case models, the Furneaux and the Belzoni.

The case measures 35 mm in diameter and 10 mm in thickness, making it the most compact execution of this design so far. It is made from 316L marine-grade stainless steel, and rather than simply shrinking the original proportions, Farer appears to have adjusted the architecture to suit the smaller size more naturally. The bezel has a steeper slope, which gives the polished surfaces a better play of light, while the curved case sides flow neatly into the brand’s bat-ear lugs. There is also a scalloped section between the lugs that allows the strap to sit closer to the case, giving the watch a more integrated and cohesive look on the wrist. The watch also features a sapphire crystal caseback and offers water resistance of 50 meters.

Farer has long understood that color alone is not enough. Texture, layering, and finishing are what give a dial real presence, and that is very much the case here. Both watches begin with a pressed surface pattern, followed by multiple layers of color that create a soft gradient effect toward the edge, before everything is sealed beneath lacquer.

The Furneaux features a pink-toned dial that feels rich and unusual without becoming overwhelming. The Belzoni moves in a cooler direction, using teal to create something calmer and slightly more traditional in character. In both versions, the dials are finished with polished hands, polished applied indices, and numerals at 12, 3, 6, and 9.

Powering both watches is the Sellita SW210-1 b, a hand-wound mechanical movement that suits the collection well. It runs at 28,800 vph (4 Hz) and offers a power reserve of 45 hours. The Furneaux is paired with a blue suede strap, while the Belzoni comes on a tan suede strap.

These new references join Farer’s permanent collection, and each is priced at GBP 1,045, approximately AED 5,200.
