It’s hard to believe it’s only been four years since Furlan Marri burst onto the scene with a Kickstarter campaign that hit its goal in just 35 seconds. Since then, the brand has racked up a GPHG award, created a perpetual calendar from scratch, and charmed collectors with a mix of vintage inspiration and modern craftsmanship. To mark its fourth anniversary, Furlan Marri is celebrating with something deeply personal—their first 36mm watch, the Red Hunter Anniversary Piece.
No wonder Furlan Marri was a staple of our Best Microbrand Watches of 2025 list.
This isn’t just a smaller case size. It’s a love letter to early 20th-century design, a nod to pocket watches with hunter cases and the officer-style wristwatches that followed. The hinged caseback is a first for the brand, and when opened, it reveals a sapphire window showcasing a newly designed, rose gold-plated oscillating weight—plus a thoughtful anniversary engraving tucked inside.
Crafted in 316L stainless steel, the 36mm case balances classic proportions with thoughtful finishing: brushed surfaces where it counts, polished accents where light catches just right. Despite the throwback styling, it’s a robust modern tool with 100 meters of water resistance and a double caseback construction that manages to look elegant while offering protection.

Inside beats the familiar and highly capable G100 automatic movement from La Joux-Perret, now updated with a rose gold 4N-coated tungsten rotor. It offers a healthy 68-hour power reserve and impressive accuracy at +/-7 seconds per day. And yes, the Geneva stripes and blued screws are still here—this is Furlan Marri, after all.
The dial? Subtle at first glance, but full of depth. A black lacquer finish plays with light, while domed hands and curved applied indexes create dimension without shouting. Look closer and you’ll spot the seconds hand rendered in deep red—a quiet reminder of the piece’s celebratory nature.
Another first: an integrated stainless-steel bracelet, designed by founders Andrea Furlan and Hamad Al Marri. It hugs the case and flows effortlessly, giving this vintage-inspired watch a distinctly modern silhouette. For those who like to mix things up, the Red Hunter also comes with two French leather straps—one black with red stitching, one cream—making it easy to shift from dressy to casual in seconds.
