The World of Affordable Luxury: Farer's New Gold World Timers
The Best Affordable World-Time Watch Gets Even Classier
A little gold never hurt anyone, and Farer is proving that with its new trio of gold world timers. But here's where it gets controversial: is it possible for a watch to be both affordable and luxurious? Farer thinks so, and with these new models, they're making a bold statement.
When Farer launched its line of World Timers back in 2019, it seemed like a bit of a fever dream. How was something like this even possible for this price? Today, there’s more competition in the space, but I still believe Farer makes the best affordable world-time watches out there. And now, with the addition of gold cases, they're raising the bar even higher.
The new models include the Thorne, with a burgundy dial and gold-colored continents, and the Foxe, with a forest green dial and mint green accents. Both models feature a rotating inner bezel with 24 cities of the world, and are powered by the Sellita SW331-2 automatic movement. But the real star of the show is the Thorne Gold, with its yellow gold PVD coating and warm burgundy dial.
The Thorne Gold is a slight premium over the other models, but it's still an absolute steal for a world-time watch. And with the addition of gold cases, Farer is proving that affordable luxury is possible. So, are you ready to add a little gold to your wrist?
And this is the part most people miss...
While the Thorne and Foxe models feature a rotating inner bezel, the Thorne Gold takes it a step further with a 24-hour disc in the center of the dial. This allows you to read the time simultaneously in 24 cities around the world, making it a true world-time watch.
But here's where it gets controversial...
Some may argue that the addition of gold cases makes these watches less affordable. However, Farer is still offering these models at a competitive price point, and the gold treatment adds a touch of luxury that's hard to ignore.
So, what do you think? Are these new gold world timers from Farer worth the investment? Let us know in the comments below!
