Here we have a whimsical 2025 Fears x Studio Underd0g The Gimlet Limited Edition of 200 pieces. Sold out and made exclusively for the 2025 British Watchmakers Day. The Gimlet is inspired by an alcoholic drink called the “Gimlet”, a potent gin cocktail with a distinctive pale green-yellow to white gradient colour. The Fears Brunswick case comes from a Fears watch originally made in 1924; its curvaceous 38mm case is made from polished and brushed 316L stainless steel, and on the right side is a traditional “onion”-shaped crown. A domed sapphire crystal sits above an incredible full-lumed Studio Underd0g dial from their Field Series 02, made up of a brass base dial made up of 7 layers of Super-LumiNova pigment, providing a backlight to the dial above. On top of this, a 1mm sapphire disc secured by the characteristic two slotted screws, with the black outer minute track surrounding elegant Fears numerals and batons marking the hours, black skeletonised Fears pippet hands sit majestically in the centre, at noon we have the dual branding Fears and Studio Underd0g create a dynamic floating shadow effect on the lower base layer, on the bottom edge it proudly states assembled in Great Britain. On the reverse, a solid engine turned case back with an attractive design in the centre. Inside a manually wound Sellita SW210-1, 19 jewels, beating at 28,800 beats per hour. It comes paired with a quick-release 20mm Strap Tailor strap with its co-signed pin buckle. This watch is sold with its original Fears x Studio Underd0g presentation box and paperwork.

This is the first Fears x Studio Unders0g 'The Gimlet' that has made it to the website and not been snapped up just before, so I wouldn't wait around too long if you are interested. Originally available exclusively at the British Watchmakers Day with a limited number of 200 total, it was an unsurprising huge success for both brands, and demand has been high since. I am looking forward to seeing what else they come up with together in the future, as we know there is more in the works. Snap this gem up today whilst you can, even at these prices, it is still a ton of watch for the money!

The year was 1846, and a young watchmaker named Edwin Fear established a workshop and showroom in his own name at 33-35 Redcliff Street in Bristol. The company Edwin Fear that he created became more and more successful and eventually, in 1866, needed to expand to their second premises, on Bristol Bridge, which served as Fears headquarters until the 1940s. During this period, the company had three different Managing Directors. Following the passing of Edwin in 1877, the business was handed down to his son, Amos Daniel Fear, who in 1908 saw the company become a limited company whilst also changing its operating name from ‘Edwin Fear’ to ’Fears Limited’. Amos also safely navigated the company through the First World War,1914-1918, after which he established an export department called ‘Fears (Export) Limited’ at No. 14 Brunswick Square in Bristol. In late 1945, following the War, Fears moved to new premises in Clifton, Bristol, just in time to celebrate the company’s centenary in 1946 with a new watch collection. Fears continued to thrive through the post-war years until it sadly closed its doors in 1976. It was not until 40 years later, in 2016, when an aspiring young apprentice watchmaker at Rolex in London, Nicholas Bowman-Scargill, who is the great-great-great-grandson of Edwin Fear, re-launched his family’s company at the SalonQP watch show on 3rd November 2016. Keeping the name ‘Fears’, he released their first wristwatch in the twenty-first century, the Redcliff. Rolling with the success of the Redcliff in 2017, they released their second wristwatch, The Brunswick, named after Brunswick Square in Bristol. In 2022, Fears relocated to its historic home city of Bristol, where they built a new Headquarters and Showroom. In 2023, the first Fears and Christopher Ward Alliance Watch was released, the Jump Hour, a unique collaboration between two powerhouses of the British Watch & Clock Makers Alliance. The Alliance was set up in November 2020 as a Trade body representing 75 Brands across the British Isles, including the Republic of Ireland, such brands as Bamford London, Christopher Ward, Fears, Farer, Elliot Brown, Isotope, Marloe Watch Company, MHD Watches, Pinion, Schofield, Studio Underdog and many others.
