Sellita

Sellita's day-date automatic caliber, the equivalent of the ETA 2834-2. Adds day and date complications to the proven SW200-1 base architecture while maintaining the same 28,800 vph beat rate and 38-hour power reserve. The additional 0.45mm of height over the SW200-1 accommodates the day display mechanism. A reliable workhorse for brands needing a day-date Swiss automatic at competitive pricing.

The Farer AQUAMATIC is widely praised for its vibrant color options, clean design, and excellent value, often including multiple strap options. Owners and reviewers highlight its comfortable 38.5mm case size and the value proposition at its price point. Some enthusiasts appreciate the unique color palettes and design language, while a segment of the community finds certain models less polished and original than other Farer offerings, with some criticizing the case design as uninspired and color schemes as potentially not aging well. One reviewer noted okay bezel grip with slight wiggle, common for its price point. Accuracy reports vary, with one owner stating the Sellita SW220-1 movement keeps great time, while another reported their watch running about 4 seconds per hour slow. Overall, owners rate the Farer AQUAMATIC highly for its fun, colorful design and comfortable wearability at a compelling price.
