The Fears Brunswick Midas (ref. brunswick-midas-ii) is a manual dress watch, with a 38mm gold-plated stainless steel case, 20mm thick, powered by the ETA 7001 movement. Water resistance is rated to 10m, under a domed sapphire crystal. Manufacturer MSRP is $3,757. The dial color is gold.
The Fears Brunswick Midas is praised for its elegant, classic design, with one reviewer highlighting the hand-polished dial and art-deco numerals. Another review notes the sterling silver case and enamel-style dial with Roman numerals and a sub-seconds register, inspired by an 1846 pocket watch. A different variant's vertically brushed copper dial is called captivating, though its thermally blued hands and skeletonized design hinder low-light legibility. The manually wound ETA 7001 movement in that variant offers a 38-40 hour power reserve and lacks hacking seconds, with the reviewer preferring a solid case-back over the sapphire exhibition version. On balance, reviewers appreciate the Fears Brunswick Midas's elegant design and detailed finishing, with specific praise for its dial work and classic aesthetic.
