Fears Watches

Official Time Keeping Partner

Fears Watches is a proud British watchmaker whose heritage and craftsmanship make them an ideal partner for the Great British Odyssey. Founded in 1846 and revived by a sixth-generation family member, Fears blends timeless British elegance with meticulous engineering. Their watches are renowned for classic design, refined detail, and robust construction—perfectly suited for both everyday wear and extraordinary adventures.

Built to exacting standards and finished with care, each Fears timepiece reflects the same values at the heart of GBO: endurance, precision, and character. As a fully British company, Fears exemplifies the best of homegrown craftsmanship, making their involvement in this iconic British expedition particularly meaningful.

Angus will be wearing a custom-designed Fears watch throughout the entire solo circumnavigation—a symbol of resilience and elegance that will accompany him every mile. In support of GBOs mission to raise awareness for men's mental health, Fears will also be contributing limited-edition watches to be auctioned, with all proceeds going to James's Place, a charity dedicated to preventing male suicide.

This partnership is not just about timekeeping—it's about legacy, purpose, and supporting lives, both on and off the water.
