How Often Should You Get Your Watch Serviced?

Knowing when to get your watch serviced can be something of an enigma. Most quality watch movements can keep running for years without being touched, and on top of that, different types of watch movements have different service intervals. As Farer only use mechanical movements, it is these that we’ll focus on in this article. For those readers who are unfamiliar with mechanical watch movements,

The Goodest Boy

We said goodbye to Oscar last week and it’s hard to put into words just how much he meant to me and my family. He was my buddy. Always there with a smile, a nudge, and that calm, happy presence that could make any day better. The shop feels quieter without him, but I’m grateful for all the years we had together and the countless memories he left behind. We first brought Oscar home from Wisconsin

Tout commençait pourtant sous les meilleurs auspices, une bande d’amis, quelques voitures,

How To Wind A Mechanical Watch

One of the oldest methods for powering a watch is by using a mechanical movement. This harnesses the gradual release of energy from a wound mainspring - regulated by a series of gears and an oscillating balance wheel - to precisely drive the hands and maintain accurate timekeeping. Mechanical watches can either be hand-wound or automatic. Though it is nearly always possible to wind an automatic wa
