Farer 35MM CUSHION CASEvsOak & Oscar The Humboldt ExP-02

Owners widely praise the Farer 35MM CUSHION CASE for its compact wearability, with a 10mm thickness and 38mm lug-to-lug measurement, and its attractive, art deco-inspired dials featuring vibrant color gradients. Reviewers highlight the reinterpreted case angles, steeper bezel slope, and the visually appealing hand-wound Sellita SW210-1 movement with custom finishing. Some owners find the 35mm size wears smaller than expected, while others note cushion cases can wear larger than their stated diameter, and there is a split opinion on whether the 35mm size is ideal for all wrists. The watch is powered by a Sellita SW210-1 movement with a 45-hour power reserve and is water resistant to 50 meters, priced around $1165/€1,195/£1,045. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Farer 35MM CUSHION CASE highly for its distinctive design and perceived value.

Oak & Oscar The Humboldt ExP-02 is a 39.5mm stainless steel tool watch featuring a unique, layered aluminum "ghost dial" for legibility and 200m water resistance, powered by a Sellita SW300 movement. Its appeal is limited by a US$2,550 price and an extremely limited production of 20 pieces, with its experimental dial construction done in Chicago. Overall, reviewers highlight the endearing dial and in-house bezel production as key features of the Oak & Oscar Humboldt ExP-02.
