Farer’s new Integra doesn’t scream novelty—it feels like a confident evolution. In just a glance, it blends integrated sports-watch sensibility with Farer’s quietly assured aesthetic, making it one of the more considered releases of 2025.
A British Brand Finds Its Integrated Voice
Established in London in 2015, Farer has earned a reputation for distinctive dial designs, thoughtful use of colour, and design inspiration drawn from 1960s–70s heritage through a contemporary lens. With the Integra, Farer enters the integrated-bracelet category—something not previously in its wheelhouse—with a design that doesn’t feel out of place among its more adventurous collections. This is not just an attempt to follow a trend—it’s a deliberate statement of maturity while retaining its characterful identity.
Technical Refinement in Focus
The Integra’s stainless-steel case measures a modest 38.5 mm diameter, 10.3 mm thickness, and about 42 mm lug-to-lug, proportions that promise comfort on a variety of wrists. Polished chamfers accentuate its curved, refined silhouette, topped with a raised bezel that contributes to its wrist presence without adding bulk. On the inside ticks the Top Grade Sellita SW300-1, offering a 56-hour power reserve, 4 Hz beat, and adjustment in five positions—clearly a step up from the more common SW200. The bespoke full-circle rotor—with vapour-coated finishing to match each dial—mirrors the aesthetics of the integrated bracelet in its cutouts. Functionally, it delivers hours, minutes, seconds, and date smoothly and with confident accuracy.
Seamless Aesthetics and Everyday Wear
Farer equips the Integra with four dial options, each with a Latin name: Tenebris (blue), Cuprum (salmon-copper), Viridis (green malachite), and Perlarum (mother-of-pearl). Each dial features layered finishes—sunray centres, grained mid-rings, brushed chapters, and etched minute tracks—plus horizontal grooves that echo the H-link bracelet structure. The lume is Grade X2 Super-LumiNova; notably, the mother-of-pearl “Perlarum” dial uses black-overprinted Lumicast markers to create a subtle back-glow effect. The bracelet itself tapers neatly from 24 mm to 16 mm and incorporates an on-the-fly micro-adjustment of up to 3 mm per side, plus quick-release and screw-pins for sizing—allowing a refined yet sporty versatility. A matching rubber strap is included for a more casual or active aesthetic.
Final Perspective: Where It Fits in Today’s Landscape
Farer has never tried to redefine the sports-watch genre with the Integra—yet it quietly refines it. Available now, US pricing is about $1,650 for Tenebris and Cuprum, and $1,765 for Viridis and Perlarum. At these levels, the Integra competes compellingly with integrated-bracelet offerings from Yema, Christopher Ward, and Frederique Constant, but with a distinct British charm and design coherence that gives it room to breathe in a crowded field. In my view, it’s an elegant evolution rather than a flashy pivot—a watch that feels deliberately considered, quietly confident, and true to what Farer has always done best.
