The Watch
Estimate: $4,400
The Archival 1930 is a proportional recreation of a rectangular watch Fears first launched in 1930, simply scaled up slightly to suit modern tastes. Its Art Deco inspired dial is a close reproduction of the original and the hands are a solid version of the distinctive pipette-shaped hands Fears uses on its watches.
This particular watch is a special, one-off version of the Archival 1930, featuring a silver dial with Opaline finish and Silver plating, with a polished Black Gold border and Black Gold, diamond cut bevelled hands.
