Alright, let’s talk about this Farer Moonphase watch, you know, the one they say is all fancy and whatnot. I ain’t no expert, mind you, just a regular person looking at a watch. But I can tell you what I see, plain and simple.
First off, they call it a “moonphase” watch. Now, what in the tarnation does that mean? Well, it’s got this little picture on it, see? Shows the moon, like if it’s a full moon or a half moon or whatever. They say it takes almost 30 days for the moon to go all the way around, from new moon to full moon and back again. This watch, it shows you where the moon’s at in that whole shebang. Fancy, huh? But is it useful? I reckon that depends on if you care about the moon’s business or not.
Now, about the watch itself. It ain’t one of them big, clunky things. They say it’s 38.5mm, whatever that means. It’s kinda roundish, but not exactly round. More like a cushion, they say. Reminds me a bit of those old pillows my grandma used to have. They say this ain’t the first time Farer made a watch like this. They had another one called Stanhope II, or somethin’ like that. So, they’re kinda stickin’ with what they know, I guess.
This Moonphase thing, they say it’s a whole new collection. And they say Farer, they got their own way of doin’ things. They put their own “spin” on it, like they say. Well, I guess that’s good, right? Nobody wants a copycat watch, do they? They got three different ones, these Moonphase watches. Different colors and stuff, I reckon. But they all got that moon thing goin’ on.
- One thing I heard is that the moon on the watch, it ain’t just slapped on there. They say somebody in a place called Geneva, they painted it by hand. Now, that’s somethin’, ain’t it? Makes you wonder how much they charge for somethin’ like that.
- And they say the insides of the watch, the “movement” they call it, it’s real fancy too. All finished up nice and neat. Not like them cheap watches you get at the dollar store, I bet.
I heard some folks talkin’, sayin’ this watch costs a pretty penny. Over 1500 of them English pounds, whatever that is. Seems like a lot of money for a watch, if you ask me. But then again, I ain’t used to spendin’ that kind of money on anything but a good milk cow.
So, what’s the deal with Farer watches in general? Well, I don’t know much about ’em, but they seem to be tryin’ to make somethin’ special. This Moonphase watch, it’s kinda like a piece of art, they say. High-end materials, they say. And that moon thing, it’s complicated, they say. It ain’t just tellin’ time, it’s tellin’ you about the moon too. Is it worth all that money? Well, that’s up to you and your pocketbook, ain’t it?
They say this Moonphase watch came out in 2023. And folks are lookin’ at it real close, tryin’ to figure out if it’s any good. They’re talkin’ about the specs and the price and all that. Me? I just look at it and think, “That’s a nice-lookin’ watch.” But I ain’t gonna lie, I’d be scared to wear somethin’ so fancy. What if I dropped it in the well or somethin’? Then I’d really be in a pickle.
Overall, this Farer Moonphase watch, it’s somethin’ different. It ain’t your everyday watch, that’s for sure. It’s for folks who like fancy things, who like the moon, and who got a bit of extra cash to spare. If you’re one of them, then maybe this watch is for you. If not, well, there’s plenty of other watches out there that’ll tell you the time just fine. And that’s all I gotta say about that.
