This special and very limited Fears Brunswick 'Jubilee Edition' will be up for auction with proceeds benefiting the Brian LaViolette Foundation on December 11th in New York City through Christie’s. Please learn more about it from the company itself…
“We produced 70 watches to mark her late Majesty Queen Elisabeth’s Platinum Jubilee (1952 – 2022). The Brunswick ‘Jubilee Edition’ was exclusively made and sold during the Jubilee year of 2022, making it a perfect souvenir of this special, once-in-a-lifetime occasion. Originally it was planned to make an unlimited number during the Jubilee year of 2022, however, when she sadly passed in September that year it was decided to make no more and by chance we had made 70 which seem a very appropriate number to stop at.
As the brand's "Jubilee Edition," this timepiece features a Royal Purple dial, which perfectly replicates this historic color closely associated with Great Britain's royalty. Expertly made in Germany, this regal tone is created using a special kind of lacquer with different drops of pigment added to achieve the exact desired tone. It is finished with a light-catching sunburst pattern radiating from the dial's center. This effect is complemented by the concentric circle finishing on the sunken sub-seconds at 6 o’clock.
"Supporting the LaViolette Watch Auction and Foundation is deeply meaningful to us at Fears Watch Company. Having seen the incredible impact the Brian LaViolette Scholarship Foundation has had—awarding 1,160 scholarships since 1992 and helping students achieve their educational dreams—I'm personally inspired by their mission. Contributing to a cause that offers financial assistance and, more importantly, inspires and encourages young people to pursue their passions and make the world a better place resonates with my own values and those of our company."
— Nicholas Bowman-Scargill, (4th) Managing Director of Fears Watch Company
