Brunswick 40 Black Topper Edition

The coolest Fears watch.

Please Note: whilst each of our Topper collaborations have sold out very quickly - if you are interested in a Fears with a California dial this may be possible via our Fears Custom Division, if so please get in touch with enquiries@fearswatches.com

Limited to 25 pieces, this special collaboration commemorated a long-awaited debut in North America. As the eleventh “Topper Edition” co-designed and offered exclusively to Topper Jewelers, this Brunswick followed the blueprint of the brand’s Brunswick, re-sized to a newly engineered 40mm case featuring a series of sporty new twists in the form of a hybrid "California" dial with generous luminosity, 100 meters of water resistance, and a Swiss-made automatic movement, tailored for a lifetime of adventure.

CASE

The Brunswick 40’s elegant yet sporty 40 mm cushion-shaped case has no flat surfaces. The case’s glancing curves are machined from 316L stainless steel in Germany, to a level usually reserved for precious metals. With a hand grained finish applied to the top of the case showcasing the sophistication of the machinery and the skill of the operator.

Complementing the case is our bespoke ‘onion’-shaped winding  crown, the crown’s fine grooves catch the light, adding a touch of radiance to the edge of the case.

DIAL

The Brunswick 40 Black Topper Edition features a textured black lacquer with applied diamond-cut hour markers in a "California" style configuration. Featuring Roman numerals at the top half, and traditional Arabic numerals along the bottom. The Markers are filled with Swiss X1 Superluminova (blue emission).

The numerals are applied to the dial by hand, after being diamond polished to a mirror shine and coated in Rhodium. 

HANDS

The Brunswick 40 Black Topper Edition bears distinctive ‘Fears’-shaped hands are coated in rhodium, hand-filled with Swiss X1 Superluminova.

MOVEMENT

The Brunswick 40 is powered by a Swiss made, automatic winding ETA 2824-2 movement. Winding itself when worn on the wrist, this movement is made to Top-grade standard with a decorated winding rotor hidden behind the closed case back. This movement has had its date mechanism removed allowing precise control when setting the time with no "ghost" date position.

The accurate and reliable ETA 2824-2 movement is a popular choice, with easy servicing and regulating. We service and modify each movement in Britain.

Strap or Bracelet

Each Brunswick is paired with a handmade Calf Leather strap in Patina Brown with contrasting tan stitching. Its stainless steel pin buckle is subtly engraved with our ‘Fears’ logo. The Brunswick is designed to fit all of the straps in our range, which you can easily fit yourself without tools.

The Brunswick 40 Black Topper Edition can also be fitted to a bespoke stainless steel 5-link bracelet with expertly brushed links.

Featuring solid screw links, the bracelet has a substantial feel while the silky-smooth movement of the links ensure a comfortable fit around the wrist. The bracelet can be micro-adjusted with both the 8 mm and 6 mm links provided, ensuring a perfect fit. The bracelet is secured to the wrist using a trigger-release butterfly style clasp with the Bristol flower enamelled discreetly inside the blades.

ENGRAVED CASEBACK

The Brunswick 40 Black Topper Edition is finished with a subtle closed back - featuring a unique engraving design and Limited Edition number.
