Farer Barnwell: a titanium pilot’s watch that trades black for bronze and blue

The Barnwell takes the familiar pilot’s-watch layout in an unusually colourful direction. Its bronze-toned segmented dial uses an outer minute scale and inner hour track, interrupted by orange hands and a sky-blue chapter ring. The brown PVD-coated titanium case makes the colour scheme feel integrated rather than limited to the dial.

At 40 mm wide and 43 mm lug to lug, the case is notably short, with a 10.9 mm thickness. A soft-iron inner enclosure gives the watch a stated magnetic resistance of 500 gauss. Sellita’s automatic SW300-1 Elaboré provides approximately 56 hours of reserve, and the watch is water-resistant to 100 metres. The European catalogue price is €1,585 including local EU taxes.
