Purchased the Exmooor II online direct from Farer, to replace a Hamilton Khaki field watch that didn't quite meet expectations for an outdoors watch. The Farer looks great and is highly legible, the sailcloth strap is exactly the look I wanted, and the water resistance is vastly superior. The only quibble I have is that the date numerals are unreadably tiny to my (admittedly imperfect) eyes, so the pointer date turns out not to be a useful feature, unless I eventually memorize the positions of the dates relative to the hour markers. (Larger numerals, staggered high and low to keep them distinct, might be a design to consider.) The orange color for 28-31 makes them virtually invisible; this strikes me as cute design for its own sake, and something of a negative on what is intended to be a tool watch. Maybe try yellow, if there's a utility that I'm not aware of. (I tend to know when the rent is due.) Overall I'm quite happy with it: with great utility and good looks as well, it's become my daily watch.
