The Farer Resolute is a 36mm Swiss-made three-hand automatic featuring a white enamelled lacquer dial with applied luminous ceramic Arabic numerals and a burnt-orange seconds hand accent, powered by the La Joux-Perret G101 with a 68-hour power reserve.

On the wrist

The Resolute sits quietly on the wrist but announces itself the moment light catches the dial. At 41.2mm lug-to-lug it works especially well on wrists under 6.5 inches, where the 36mm case fills the visual space without overpowering it. The 10.4mm case depth is genuinely slim — it slips under a shirt cuff without argument, and the polished case sides catch light pleasingly without reading as dressy in the old-fashioned sense.

The ice-blue Lumicast numerals are ceramic-and-lume blocks raised from the dial surface, not printed, and up close that tactile three-dimensionality distinguishes the Resolute from watches costing twice as much. The burnt-orange seconds hand is a bold editorial choice that shouldn't work on a white dial but somehow does — it reads as confident rather than loud. The La Joux-Perret G101 through the sapphire caseback rewards the curious: tidy, regulated to four positions, quiet in a way that communicates quality without shouting it. Those who need adventure-ready numbers will be stymied by 50m water resistance; this is a city watch, not a beach watch, and the Resolute wears that identity without apology.

Bottom line

A slim, intelligently sized Swiss automatic that earns its asking price with a genuine La Joux-Perret movement, distinctive three-dimensional Lumicast dial, and compact 41.2mm lug-to-lug — the right pick for smaller wrists that want colour character and lume performance without bulk.

Who it's for

Best suited to wrists in the 6–6.5 inch range looking for a slim, dress-adjacent daily wearer with genuine Swiss movement quality, bold colour accent, and strong lume performance. Works well across smart-casual and business contexts; also appeals to collectors adding a compact, colourful three-hander to a larger-watch collection.

Who should skip it

Skip it if you need more than 50m water resistance, want a date complication, or wear a wrist above ~6.5 inches where the very short (41.2mm) lug-to-lug may leave noticeable gaps on the wrist.

Before you buy

Confirm size: Resolute 36mm vs Resolute III 39mm — meaningfully different WR (50m vs 100m), dimensions, and price (£925 vs £1,095)
50m WR only — hand-washing fine, lap-swimming is not
Lug-to-lug is 41.2mm, exceptionally short for a 36mm case — verify wrist fit before ordering
Strap bundle inclusions and pricing vary; Milanese bracelet is a £20 GBP premium option

FAQ

Is the Resolute automatic or quartz?

It runs a automatic movement.

What movement does the Resolute use?

The La Joux-Perret G101 (La Joux-Perret).

Does the Resolute have a date?

No.

How water resistant is the Resolute?

It is rated to 50 m.

How big does the Resolute wear?

36 mm wide with a 41.2 mm lug-to-lug.

How does the base Resolute 36mm differ from the Resolute III?

The Resolute III is 39mm wide with 100m water resistance, a screw-down crown, and a slightly thicker 11.8mm profile (45mm lug-to-lug) at £1,095; the Resolute 36mm is slimmer at 10.4mm, shorter at 41.2mm lug-to-lug, with 50m WR at £925 — a clear size-and-use-case split.

Are the dial numerals printed or physically applied?

Applied. The 12 Arabic numerals are Lumicast — a proprietary ceramic-and-Super-LumiNova blend — raised from the dial surface and overprinted in black for daylight contrast and a backglow effect in darkness.

Is the La Joux-Perret G101 a meaningful upgrade over a standard Miyota at this price?

Generally yes: the G101 is Swiss-made, regulated to 4 positions, finished to La Joux-Perret's 'soignée' grade, carries KIF anti-shock protection, and provides 68 hours of power reserve — specs that sit above the typical Miyota 9015 in finishing standards, though the 9015 remains a solid daily performer.
