RASPBERRY RIPPLE
The Arber strikes a chord with a rich raspberry red dial that makes a confident statement on the wrist. A recessed purple sub-seconds dial and minute track complement this rich colour, whilst a light peach seconds hand provides a subtle accent. Superbly contrasting against these vibrant colours are a set of pure white applied numerals and an elegant tapered handset. The numbers are Lumicast, a blend of Super-Luminova and ceramic, and both they and the hands use the newest Grade X2 Super-LumiNova. With such a striking use of colour, the Arber is as memorable as it is elegant.
As you would expect, this refined dial is protected by a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. And, it’s housed within an incredibly svelte 38mm steel case finished to the highest “Grade A” standard, something that’s usually only seen on the most premium of Swiss watches. It’s a markedly thin case, being just 7.95mm thick, and with its curved lugs, it hugs the wrist perfectly.
All of which makes this the epitome of modern sophistication. A watch that’s sleek enough to sit unnoticed on the wrist, with a dial bold enough to make a confident statement, and an exceptionally high level of finishing throughout every element.
FEATURES
Finer, Brighter, Better - The 3D numerals on the Lissom are made from Lumicast, a blend of Super-LumiNova and ceramic. These are our finest use of Lumicast yet, and each number is remarkably thin. They’re also our brightest, using the latest Grade X2 Super-LumiNova, which is easier to activate and lasts longer than the standard grade of Super-LumiNova.
Manual Drive - The watch is powered by the La Joux-Perret D100. Based on the venerable Peseux 7001, this hand-wound Swiss calibre is only 2.5mm thick, has 18 jewels, a 3Hz beat rate, and a 50-hour power reserve. The watch has the highest grade of movement offered, the soigné with blued screws. This means that each movement is adjusted in 4 positions, and features extensive custom decoration, with blued screws, diamond-polished chamfers, and côtes de genève finishing on the bridgework.
Making The Grade - The steel case is finished to the highest possible industry standard, known as Grade A. This top-tier finishing provides the Lissom with an impeccably polished bezel and lug tops that reflect the light in a way you would normally expect to only see on precious metals. Meanwhile, the case sides have a satin brushed finish that serves to emphasise the flawless polishing.
Think Thin - The Lissom’s case was designed from the ground up to be the pinnacle of understated elegance. At 38mm in diameter, it’s the ideal size for a modern day-dress watch. It’s only 7.95mm thick, and thanks to its angled lugs, it hugs the wrist so much that it's easy to forget that you’re wearing it. Though the Lissom is already impressively thin, the case sides are engraved with a keyline that breaks up the shallow profile and makes it look even thinner.
Less Is More - The Lissom’s dial is an effortless blend of refined elegance and sophisticated colour. The design is characterised by a set of sharp radially mounted numerals and an angular, tapered handset. A recessed sub-seconds dial at six o'clock completes the elegant look.
STORY
The watch is named after Agnes Arber, a British plant morphologist, anatomist, historian of botany and philosopher of biology. Arber spent her whole career in this field and published her first book, “Herbals, their origin and evolution”, in 1912. It examines how historic herbalist texts evolved between 1470 and 1670. She would go on to publish many more books and other literature throughout her career, eventually focusing on the philosophy of botany in her later years. In 1946, Arber was the first female botanist elected as a Fellow of the Royal Society, and only the third woman overall. She was also the first woman to receive the Gold Medal of the Linnean Society of London.

Press
While the dimensions and handwound movement may suggest a dress watch, the accents on the case, texturing of the dial, and bold colors give this collection a bit more levity — even the black and white dial — for a decidedly casual feeling on the wrist. →
I’m sure this series will find many fans. If you are looking for a modern daily wearer that you can also use for special occasions, look no further.→
The dial colours are typical Farer, a brand that has never been afraid of dabbling in a little colour science. And what I like about the five options that we have to us here is that there really feels like there is something for everyone.→
