The Fears Brunswick 40.5 Jump Hour takes a similar form to the Alliance 01, housed in an elegantly curvaceous cushion shaped case with a few tweaks on the original. The design of our iconic Brunswick Jump Hour now evolves with not just new dial colours but also a revised dial design that features a new minute track and different finishing options.

    • Case: 40.5mm, stainless steel, brushed and polished, 20mm lug width
    • Dial: Coral Lacquer
    • Strap: Black, premium buffalo calf leather, handmad
    • Bracelet: 5-link, stainless steel bracelet with screw links and butterfly clasp
    • Movement: Christopher Ward's JJ01 Module, Sellita SW200 base
    • Water Resistance: 100 metres (10 ATM) 

    Hand built in Britain.

    Graceful and complex, the curvaceous Brunswick silhouette takes its inspiration from a gentleman’s cushion case watch in the Fears archives, first made in 1924.

    CASE

    The Brunswick’s elegant 40.5mm cushion-shaped case has no flat surfaces, with even the solid case back having a gentle sweep. The case’s graceful curves are machined from 316L stainless steel, to a level usually reserved for precious metals. The depth of the polish showcases the sophistication of the machinery and the skill of the operator.

    The traditional and bespoke ‘onion’-shaped winding crown, signed with the Fears Cypher, has fine grooves catch the light, adding a touch of radiance to the edge of the case.

    DIAL

    Set in a rich hand-polished lacquer in the singular colour of coral, this dial is expertly made with its surface on two levels. The polished lacquer has a glossy appearance, quite unlike a paint or varnish that gives true depth to the colour.

    As this a ‘jump hour’ watch there are no hour numerals on the dial, instead the hour is displayed via a window at 12 o’clock. The disc displaying these numerals is coated in a bright white lacquer before the hours are printed in glossy black ink in Fears bespoke ‘Edwin’ typeface that's been enhanced for display in a round window.

    The hour window is surrounded by a hand-applied silver ring, coated in black PVD that allows the hand finishing to shine through while giving excellent contrast with the brightness of the main dial.

    The chapter rings are each machined with bevels before being finished by hand with brushed and polished surfaces. These multiple finishes catch the light while mirroring the polished bezel surrounding the crystal.

    HAND

    With the hours displayed neatly in a window, only one hand is required for telling the time. 

    The ‘Fears-shaped’ minute hand includes dual-finishing with half the hand polished to a mirror shine while the other half is frosted and the other half a finish that best complements the dial configuration. The combination of this pair of finishing techniques ensure perfect legibility at all angles, even in low light conditions.

    The Brunswick 40.5 Jump Hour Coral Lacquer has a black PVD coated hand  to match the appliques). 

    MOVEMENT

    The Brunswick 40.5 Jump Hour is powered by a Swiss made, automatic winding JJ01 movement with a module developed in-house by Christopher Ward (which was originally used in the Fears x Christopher Ward Alliance 01 and is now only exclusively supplied for use by Fears).

    Powered by a Sellita SW200, this movement is incredibly accurate, having been regulated to Chronometer grade.

    STRAP

    The Brunswick 40.5 Jump Hour Coral is fitted with a handmade Raven Black strap crafted from Buffalo leather (sourced from the Himalayas), lending a more sophisticated feel to the watch. This premium leather is some of the strongest and most durable available which makes it perfect for our sportier Brunswick.

    This leather has been tanned in the same way it has been for centuries, using organic materials (and not modern techniques that utilise chemicals). It is not stretched during the tanning process, so is thicker more hard-wearing as a result.

    The strap is lined in genuine Alcantara® dyed a deep shade of blue, this lining is supremely soft against the skin yet resistant against wear and is finished with Fears' new bespoke pin buckle (featuring the Fears Cypher).

    Customise

    You can customise your Brunswick 40.5 Jump Hour with any strap designed for a 20mm lug width, including any strap from our range, which you can easily fit yourself without tools.

    BRACELET

    The Brunswick 40.5 Jump Hour can also be fitted to a bespoke stainless steel 5-link bracelet with expertly brushed and polished 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.

    As with all Brunswicks, it features a 20 mm lug width and is designed to fit all of the straps in our range. The bracelet can be removed without tools using its quick-release springbars.

    The perfect fit!

    We can adjust the bracelet size for you before sending it. Please contact us by email with your order number and wrist size and we’ll do the rest. We will provide any spare links in an envelope with your watch.

      INDIVIDUALLY NUMBERED

      Each watch we make carries a unique serial number. Engraved discreetly on the case, this number helps us identify your watch and its history.

      AMOS BOX

      The entire Fears core collection is now presented in a slim, rectangular, wooden box made of solid ash and stained in our bespoke Fears Blue colour. This luxury box was inspired by traditional slim Fears watch boxes used in the past, in which the watch lay flat. Recognising the companies heritage, we called this box the Amos, after the 2nd and 3rd Managing Directors.

      The top of the box is discretely engraved with the Fears logo and features a gentle bevel around its edges, whilst the interior is lined in genuine cream suede. The box is secured by a polished chrome push button, keeping your watch safe and secure.
