The Fears Watch Company has been around for a long time, but if you’re an American watch lover that hasn’t zeroed in on the history of British watchmaking, you’d be forgiven for not recognizing the name right off the bat. Fears was founded in 1846 in Bristol, and produced watches continuously until the 1960s, when it was gradually wound down by third generation owner Amos Reginald Fear. Like a lot of brands that were dormant for much of the second half of the 20th century, the firm was re-established fairly recently as interest in watches has surged. Unlike a lot of those brands, however, Fears has been re-established by a member of the family that started the company all those years ago. Now in its third year of operating under sixth-generation Managing Director Nicholas Bowman-Scargill, Fears has introduced the latest addition to their Brunswick collection, with a dynamic blue dial featuring multiple finishing techniques.
