Farer has expanded its GMT Bezel collection with two new models that feel less like incremental updates and more like a thoughtful recalibration of the line’s identity. The Nevada Pine and Nevada Mocha introduce redesigned dials, revised handsets, and more nuanced color palettes while preserving the practical, travel-oriented foundation that made the collection appealing in the first place.
The most striking change appears on the dial. Both watches feature a barleycorn guilloché pattern that radiates outward from the center in a geometric arrangement reminiscent of vintage spirograph drawings. Combined with subtle fumé gradients, the effect adds depth without becoming overly decorative. It is the sort of texture that reveals itself gradually rather than demanding attention across a room.
Farer has also revised the marker layout, blending Arabic numerals with baton indices for a cleaner and more balanced composition. Sword-shaped hour and minute hands replace the previous design, while contrasting GMT hands provide instant legibility against the textured backgrounds. Grade X1 Super-LumiNova fills both the hands and markers, and even the brand’s signature “A” counterweight on the seconds hand receives lume treatment.
The Nevada Pine arrives in a 40mm case with a rich green dial and matching bezel, while the Nevada Mocha shrinks slightly to 38mm and pairs warm grey-brown tones with black accents. Both models use brushed and polished 316L stainless steel cases with Farer’s distinctive concave “ski-slope” lugs, first introduced on the Chrono-Contempo collection. The proportions remain compact and wearable, especially considering the watches offer 200 meters of water resistance, a screw-down crown, and a bidirectional GMT bezel with a sapphire insert.
Inside sits the Swiss-made Sellita SW330-2 in Top Grade specification. The automatic GMT movement operates at 4 Hz, offers approximately 56 hours of power reserve, and is adjusted in five positions for improved accuracy. A sapphire display caseback reveals a skeletonized rotor and perlage finishing that elevate the movement beyond purely utilitarian expectations.
Farer also deserves credit for refining the bracelet experience. An optional three-link steel bracelet includes screw links, quick-release spring bars, and an on-the-fly micro-adjustment clasp developed with Nodus’ NEM module, allowing up to 4.2mm of extension without removing the watch.
Priced at $1,575, the Nevada models occupy an increasingly competitive segment of the GMT market. What separates them from many similarly priced alternatives is not necessarily specification alone, but personality. Farer continues to approach color and texture with a confidence that many travel watches avoid, yet the Nevada Pine and Mocha stop short of becoming loud. They remain functional tools first—just unusually well dressed ones.
