Fears shows a stealthy new side

Graceful and complex, the curvaceous Fears Brunswick is an exacting object to create. It takes its inspiration from a gentleman’s cushion case watch in the Fears archives, first made in 1924. The Brunswick Pure takes the classic Brunswick’s elegant 38 mm cushion-shaped case and coats it in black DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon). This striking black coating makes the case scratch resistant while allowing the beautiful finishing of the Brunswick’s stainless steel case to shine through. This stealthy finish is presented in stark contrast to the Pure's hand-polished white lacquer dial, expertly made in Germany by one of the world’s finest dial makers.

Unlike the traditional Fears Brunswick White, the Brunswick Pure’s dial is devoid of any ornamentation resulting in a pure, clean surface with only the matte black painted hands and sunken subsidiary seconds dial at 6 o’clock to break up the vibrancy of the lacquered surface.

The Brunswick is powered by a Swiss made, manual winding ETA 7001 movement. This accurate movement was first designed in the 1970s, and its reliability has ensured its continuing popularity today.

Lastly, and for the first time ever, the Brunswick Pure is fitted with an animal-free strap, fixed to the case with quick-release springbars. This soft vegan strap is made using apple leather, and lined with all-natural cork.
