How do you like the Farer? There is a cherry gmt I was looking at by them. They are priced just a little high for a newer micro-brand so I passed.
The Farer is really enjoyable to wear and look at, especially in the sun where the dial really pops. The printing on the dial is very good, although I think the lume is pretty average, and I really like their use of color and combinations they put together. I think their higher-end watches are gorgeous and have been reviewed pretty favorably as far as quality. I look at them off and on, but I'm at the point where $1200+ for a watch has me feeling like I might as well save a while longer so I can get what I really want, which is a Black Bay 58.
The one I bought is/was their cheapest model - I think around $425 - and is a quartz movement and does not even have a sapphire crystal. Kinda spendy for not being an automatic or having sapphire, but I fell in love with the design. Lately I have been wishing/wanting to upgrade the crystal because it has a few scratches in it that bother me.
Okay, I'll post a picture of my collection, since it has been a while. Hasn't changed since I got the Daytona February/March of last year. I had planned on adding a Sub and a GMT (in no particular order) this year and next year. These would have been early year or spring time purchases. However, my strategy has changed a little bit. I'm thinking about going fast strategy and saving my money for a baller watch that will kick the combined asses of the GMT & Sub. Most likely, nothing will happen until later this year. But, I am patient and the watch I want to get is well worth the wait.

Dude. Of course I know all of these watches, but still excellent to see them all together! Even the watch box looks fantastic!
I cannot wait to find out what you are getting! PM Daytona is my guess. Or a Day Date. Can't wait! Great looking collection. That watch box is filling right up!
A good fren sold me that watch box and gave me a good deal on it to boot.

I'll post the picture of the watch as soon as I take possession. I hate to even hint on what it is I have my sights set on, because I don't want to jinx it. All I'll say is that, as much as I love the Daytona, I'm not in the market for a 2nd one.

I do like both of these quite a bit, though.
