The curved sides of the meticulously polished 904L stainless steel case help the slender watch slip easily under a shirt cuff.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSlim as well as curvaceous, the watch sits close to the wrist with turned down lugs ensuring a comfortable fit on all sizes of wrist.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Fears Garrick is manually wound each day using a bespoke crown that gives a controlled feel to the precise wind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDIAL\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Fears Garrick features an Old English White dial, with a fine matt texture that is reminiscent of traditional paper. This clean, smooth, bright surface is the base for the many minute design details that combine to give the Fears Garrick its technical feel.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDeep glossy black printing is combined with seven lines of blood red on the power reserve display at 2 o’clock. These lines represent the moment when the watch’s main spring has wound down. Across from this display at 10 o’clock is the running seconds, which is sunken into the dial with a crisp diamond cut bevel around its edge that is coated in precious Rhodium to draw the eye. This same effect is replicated on the opening at 6 o’clock where the movement’s balance is visible as it rotates back and forth.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eApplied by hand to the dial’s surface are the diamond-cut numerals, produced in our bespoke ‘Edwin’ typeface. Each numeral is treated like a precious gem in its cutting and polishing before receiving a coat of Black Gold, a special, warm alloy that changes in the light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHANDS\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Fears Garrick features the distinctive ‘Fears’-shaped hands, which are hand-finished by a watchmaker, giving them a depth and detail not found in mass-produced, stamped watch hands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach set of hands is subtly skeletonised before being thermally blued by flame. This traditional method of thermally hardening the steel results in a unique shade of blue that turns from almost black to electric blue in the light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMOVEMENT\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVisible through the Fears Garrick’s exhibition case back is the exclusive, manual winding Garrick UT-G04 movement. Based on the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/garrick.co.uk\/garrick-house-watch-movement\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eGarrick UT-G01\u003c\/a\u003e that was presented in 2017, this iteration of the movement features a power reserve indicator at 2 o’clock.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eExclusive to Garrick, the UT-G04 is hand finished to an exceptional level in the Garrick workshop in Norwick. Visible on both sides of the movement are six screwed chatons (with a further three hidden beneath the dial), an indication of its refined execution. The screwed chatons contrast beautifully with the bridges and plates they are fixed upon, which have been hand frosted with polished bevelled edges. The dark shade of the Rhodium plating provides a stylish contrast to the otherwise classic English appearance, and gives a contemporary feel to the movement's details.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVisible through the case back are the two screwed cocks along with the Garrick click. This gracious click ensures a precise and satisfying wind when the movement is powered by hand. All finished to an exacting standard by expert hands.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe balance wheel, made from Garrick’s exclusive alloy Sircumet, is positioned dial side and features a free sprung balance. This type of balance has its timing regulated with the adjustment of timing screws, effectively altering the moment of inertia. The benefits of this system include superior rate stability and less susceptibility to positional influence. In this instance, the timing screws are positioned in-board, mitigating air turbulence and thus aiding precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSTRAP\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Fears Garrick is paired with a handmade strap in Fears Blue. Hand sewn in Belgium, this premium strap uses calf leather. The watch is fastened by a stainless steel pin buckle that is both polished and brushed before being subtly engraved.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlternative straps are available. When ordering we can discuss the options available for making a bespoke strap to accompany your watch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eINDIVIDUALLY NUMBERED\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach watch we make carries a unique serial number.
