Best Microbrand Watch of 2022?! | FARER Mansfield Cushion Case Watch | Full Review

[@AvgJoeWatchReviews]

For such a simplistic design, Farer did a great job making the dial pop and giving it depth.

[@Weazell]

I was apprehensive about buying the Lethbridge, but I pulled the trigger when there was one left in stock. I was torn between that and the Tudor 1926. Having worn the Lethbridge for a few weeks now, I don’t think I’d wear the Tudor if I bought it tomorrow

[@TheTownWatch]

Thanks for watching my friend! As you can tell I'm pretty excited about this one!

[@dparis2172]

Hmm… Simplistic was not what I was thinking when looking at this watch.

[@DavidSchwartzjr]

It’s a great watch man! I can definitely see why you opted to pick it up! That color is perfect for spring and summer but you could rock it anytime with various straps for sure. Would have been nice to see them make a larger batch, so congrats on being able to get one before they sold out! 😎🍻👍

[@TheTownWatch]

Thanks David! I want to pick up some more straps for it! Thanks for tuning in my friend!

[@thebaldwatchcollector]

My fave Farer is the one you showed at the start with the salmon dial, absolutely love this brand and their use of colours and arabic numerals.

[@jackochainsaw]

I received mine today, absolutely love it. My only concern after I'd bought it was the manual wind, but now I have it, I'm not worried about that. It's a very solid watch. I might have to shave my wrist a little though, the lovely polished edges are obscured by my man fur. I got the green leather strap, very well made. I'm from the UK and the kind of colour would be a palm olive style or more an avocado. It was quite a common bathroom accent for a period. The Moonphase has caught my eye, specifically the pink faced one. I also rather love the Discovery Red at 36mm. If you peeps are thinking about it, and have the money, I don't think you can go wrong. They re-release in 100-200 watch batches so if you see one you like but it has sold out, it will most likely return. Just be advised that if you get a custom engraving, you can't return the watch.

[@TheTownWatch]

Enjoy it!! It's an awesome piece! Thanks for watching!

[@markedfortime]

Wow..this looks amazing. I have the Bradfield and love it. Their design language and choice of colors makes them unique and a great value at this price point. I missed out on the first 100 on this issue, but I'm on the wait list for the next round! I also missed out on their purple dial three hand (Discovery II) on the initial release, but it's back in stock and on my Xmas list I shared. I'm hoping I was good this year! 🙏 The only improvement I'd make on this model is adding a hardened coating to maintain the pristine condition. Everything else, including the manual wind movement, is spot on!

[@TheTownWatch]

A hard coating would be nice! I'm already noticing scratches. Thanks for watching!

[@MrZanzibar123]

I’ll add my testimony: love mine too! Indeed, it’s been hogging most of the time on my wrist since I got it! I got the free engraving and the beads of rice bracelet, but have been wearing it on brown leather, as the contrast really highlights the gorgeous dial. I like the way your strap matches the second hand though! Enjoy, and thanks for the nice video!

[@TheTownWatch]

Awesome! Glad you're enjoying yours! Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@stephenhopkins6738]

Gorgeous watch, in fact, so gorgeous that I've literally just bought it (now they've released the next set). Thanks for your review 👌🏻

[@dalerichardson8842]

Looks lovely Josh. Heard of Farer but not checked them out yet, didn't realise they were a home brand for me being in the UK! Great video as usual Josh 👌😊

[@TheTownWatch]

Check them out! They're great! Thanks for watching!

[@cedarcanoe]

Sorry to disappoint you: based on sale-out time, Zelos is the most popular microbrand. We’re talking less than an hour for new releases. I agree this Farer is an extremely attractive watch. Nice video!

[@TheTownWatch]

Glad you like this watch from Farer! By the way, I like Zelos a lot! Thanks for watching.

[@felo6035]

Wow Josh, this is a gorgeous watch! I visited their website and fell in love with a different color variation called the Stanhope II...gorgeous. Thank you buddy, another watch on my wish list 😁 Great review as usual, and thank you for sharing 👍

[@TheTownWatch]

Glad you like it Felo! You should definitely grab Farer if you don't have one!

[@felo6035]

@@TheTownWatch Don't have one and didn't know much about the brand. I'm glad you featured, as it is one of my top picks for 2023 🙂👍

[@Box_13]

Don't apologize for enjoying the watch. Congrats on the nice pickup.

[@TheTownWatch]

😁 Thanks for watching Chad!

[@seanrobinson9854]

Very nice watch Josh. The color is definitely stunning and eye catching. Has top notch specs. I'm a sucker for blue on watches, so the blue Lethbridge model is going on my list. This was actually a nice change of pace and a great video I really enjoyed watching as your enthusiasm, got me excited and happy for you to add this to your collection. Because of this video, if they ever release another batch of these, I will be jumping on the pre-order list. Thanks so much for bringing this great watch to my attention.

[@TheTownWatch]

Thanks for watching Sean! Hope you can grab one of those Lethbridge ones at some point!

[@RJtoon1]

Beautiful watch love the colour reminds me of Breitling’s pistachio chronographs, but for me, the band would be swapped out for maybe a black one

[@TheTownWatch]

I can see that, I like the Breitlings I've seen with that color. Thanks for watching!

[@Z-S-H]

I cant say anything negative based upon specs of that watch but I will say that I personally do not care for the aesthetics of the case shape or color however as far as Farer as a brand I think they make some very nice watches including the Lomond and the Crooms II GMT both of which I would like and as someone who generally doesnt care for GMT watches I really like the design of the Crooms II, because of its color, dimensions and design.

[@TheTownWatch]

Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts!

[@HHIto]

Reminds me of a Panerai DUE & better than a Bell & Ross. Stopped buying Seiko Prospex limited editions (>$1200 & up), don't like the 6R35 movement. I bought the Mansfield Farer; it'll fit in my weekly lineup nicely. Other Farer models are okay, but the greenie fits my rotation. I also added the Milanese metal bracelet. Now I don't have to think about Seiko's 2023 plans.

[@TheTownWatch]

Congrats! Enjoy it! Thanks for watching!

[@kickstothehead3705]

Got that 67 Chevy swag going as specially with that mint green

[@TheTownWatch]

😁 Thanks for watching! I can see that!

[@daintiestquarters3411]

The crown is sooooo smooth, and the watch is manual!!!!!! ❤

[@arcadevampire]

Now its summer im gagging for this watch. This model has always sold out quick, been waiting for availability for some time. Cushion case is shared with new released moonphase, so guessing production must be shared limiting numbers. Agree, that colour is sensational!

[@TheTownWatch]

Thanks for watching! Hope you can get one!

[@RobinsWatchJourney]

It’s great to see a guy excited about his watch!

[@TheTownWatch]

😁 Thanks for watching!

[@dinerotranquilo]

I have a couple man Farer pieces. They are as advertised.

[@TheTownWatch]

Thanks for watching!

[@jctai100]

I was sad to see this is sold out, it'd be really nice with their tan strap!

[@TheTownWatch]

I hear ya! Thanks for watching!

[@krasnaludek298]

Great looking watch … really like the pistachio color. I have the Farer Stanhope II, so I’m biased. 👍🏻

[@TheTownWatch]

Thanks for watching! I love this piece!

[@anonymouswatchguy4223]

Was very tempted by this one…great looking piece

[@TheTownWatch]

It's an awesome piece! Thanks for watching!

[@bitterboar]

Love this watch, especially the color. I’d keep it too!

[@TheTownWatch]

Thanks for watching! Glad you like it!

[@sjonny-depp]

I call it pistaccio

[@TheTownWatch]

I think that fits perfectly. Thanks for watching!

[@oddjob7821]

Love the style. Just a nice piece of class.

[@TheTownWatch]

Thanks for watching!

[@simonliao6430]

The case design looks like Moser. Just wondering do you find the case a bit of scratch magnet due to polished finish?

[@TheTownWatch]

Thanks for watching! Which Moser are you referring to? I'm not too familiar with with their models. The case has received some scratches yes.

[@moltesv7008]

Nice watch, great review 🔥🔥. Marry Christmas 🎉

[@TheTownWatch]

Merry Christmas! Thanks for watching!

[@DannyRose192]

Where? Can I buy it?

[@bentlyist]

Great video! But now I'm mad at you because I want one... 😜

[@TheTownWatch]

Thanks for watching! Hope you can get one!

[@gregalonzo747]

Nice piece though I must admit that I prefer a larger watch.

[@TheTownWatch]

Thanks for watching Greg. This wears a little larger than the dimensions!

[@thegorn]

Minty

[@subzero9460]

[@nigelbarker8726]

Very nice

[@TheTownWatch]

[@HarrisTrewis]

[@drewsleyy3836]

No wrist shot? hmmmm…

[@ibrahimtaheraly4861]

Make it ice blue and they can have all of my money

[@TheTownWatch]

They do have blue version of this cushion case watch. The dial is slightly different. Thanks for watching.

[@i.b15]
