WATCH CARE
GENERAL CARE
Every Farer Automatic has been constructed to withstand the test of time.
However, like all precision mechanical devices, your watch needs a regular
service and proper care. Avoid excessive exposure to direct sunlight or heat.
Normal sports activities will not affect the watch’sfunctionality. However,
any type of violent shock may upset the movement and ability to keep correct
time.
CLEANING
Watch case, steel bracelet, rubber strap. Gently wipe off the front and back
of the watch case, steel bracelet or rubber strap using a clean andslightly
damp cloth. Dry and polish your watch with the Farer superfine microfibre
cloth. Leather straps. Clean regularly with a specially formulated leather
care balm. Avoid getting leather straps wet.
IMPORTANT: Do not use chemicals to clean your watch.
STAINLESS STEEL CROWN WITH BRONZE CAP
The signature Farer bronze cap will patinate as it is exposed to the elements.
It may also over time develop a soft green tone depending on the acidity of
the wearer’s skin. If you wish to return the bronze cap to its original
condition, use a pinhead-size blob of metal polish and a fine polishing cloth
to gently remove any tarnish. We recommend Peek metal polish.
WATER RESISTANCE
Your watch case is resistant to 10ATM / 100M and should be rinsed thoroughly
in fresh water after being in contact with salt water. Wipe dry with a soft
cloth. Ensure the crown is fully pushed in before contacting with water. Your
watch case, steel bracelet and rubber strap should be rinsed thoroughly in
fresh water after being in contact with salt water. Wipe dry with a soft
cloth. Do not submerge a leather strap because the water will damage the
natural material.
IMPORTANT: After changing time, please ensure crown is fully pushed into
(home) position 1.
SERVICING & REPAIRS
All component parts are manufactured from the best materials. However, some
parts are subject to natural wear. This is why we recommend that you have a
maintenance service carried out on your watch every 3-4 years. Contact Farer
for further information about our servicing programme or use a reputable watch
technician who has an expertise in Sellita movements. If in doubt about the
quality of service needed to uphold your warranty, please contact Farer. Your
warranty may be affected if your watch is not properly serviced.
WATCH STRAPS
Watch straps are guaranteed to be free from manufacturing defects at the time
of purchase but are not otherwise guaranteed because they are expected to
undergo normal wear and tear. Leather watch straps typically have a finite
life span, as perspiration and body oils degrade natural leathers over time.
WARRANTY & GUARANTEE
Your Farer watch is covered against manufacturing defects for 60 months / 5 years from date of purchase. Upon presentation of the warranty card duly completed, dated and signed by the authorised Farer dealer, alongside proof of purchase, the right of guarantee will be honoured by the official Farer Service Centre. This warranty excludes the watch case, glass, crown, straps and any damage caused by excessive use or under conditions exceeding water resistance limitations. Please contact Farer to obtain more information.
BRITISH DESIGN. SWISS MADE.
Congratulations on purchasing a Farer watch.
At Farer, we are passionate about creating watches that are the perfect
companions for life’s adventures. Farer watches are inspired by the halcyon
era of watchmaking, when bold colours and contrasting textures were combined
with the very best craftsmanship.
Our watches are named after iconic British explorers, vessels and locations
that perfectly define the true spirit of Farer:
ambition beyond the ordinary.
Thank you for your support.
Here’s to the journey.
MANUAL WINDING
Your watch has a manual movement, which means that it needs to be wound by
hand to function.
With the crown in position 1, gently wind the crown clockwise approximately
42-48 times or until there is resistance, do not attempt to wind any further.
This will power your watch for approximately 62 hours. The best way to ensure
good operation is to wind the watch daily.
IMPORTANT: Take care when winding the crown. Do not force the crown to turn as this will permanently damage the mainspring that powers your watch.
SETTING THE TIME
Gently pull out the crown to position 3. Turn the crown until the correct time
is displayed. Push the crown back to position 1.
IMPORTANT: After changing time, please ensure crown is fully pushed into
(home) position 1.
SETTING (GMT) TIME AND DATE
Gently pull out the crown to position 2. Turn the crown anti-clockwise to
change the 24-hour hand (the GMT hand moves anti-clockwise). Turn the crown
clockwise to advance the date. Push the crown back to position 1.
IMPORTANT: After changing date or time, please ensure crown is fully
pushed in to (home) position 1. Only advance the date when the time is after
2AM and before 10PM.
TIMING START/STOP/RESET
To start the timer function press pusher A firmly.
This will start the chronograph hand and the 30-minute counter hand. To stop
the timer press pusher A firmly, this will stop the chronograph hand and the
30-minute counter hand, press pusher A firmly again to reset the hands.
INTERCHANGEABLE STRAPS
Our strap mechanism allows you to easily change the look of your watch in
seconds, without the aid of a tool. All our straps fit wrists that measure
between 16cm to 23cm.
To change the strap, pull back the lever to release the pin. Whilst holding
back the lever, place pins into lug holes. Once lined up, release lever to
secure the strap.
