Bering 11020-332 Gold Tone Mesh Bracelet Watch - W74266

Ref. 11020-332

Bering's Classic line applies the same pared-back Scandinavian sensibility to this piece that runs through the whole collection — clean geometry, no ornament that isn't doing work, dials that read at a glance. Here the oval case, just 6mm deep, keeps the watch close to the wrist and legible under a cuff, while the sunray-finished black dial gives the gold-tone hands and hour markers something to work against. Roman numerals at twelve and six stop well short of fussiness. At 20mm wide the proportions are deliberately slight, and the finely woven mesh bracelet, only 8mm across, suits that scale: it drapes rather than sits, and the safety clasp adjusts closely enough that it will not slide.

Learn more about Bering

Bering was founded in Denmark in 2004 and named for Vitus Bering, the Danish navigator who charted the strait between Siberia and Alaska. The Arctic reference is the brand's whole design argument: clarity, cold light, nothing surplus.

That translates into a consistent look — very slim cases, milanese mesh bracelets, flat dials with minimal markers, and a strong preference for ceramic and titanium over steel.

The technical claim is the glass. Bering fits sapphire across much of the range, and has built its marketing around scratch resistance at price points where mineral glass is the norm.

The company also produces solar-powered models and a substantial range of ceramic watches, and sells widely through European jewellers.

These are design-led quartz watches rather than horological objects, and they are honest about that. What they offer is a Scandinavian aesthetic executed consistently, at a price that does not require thinking twice.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch

Can I swim with it?

No. At 30m it will survive rain and handwashing, but not submersion of any kind.

Will the glass scratch?

Unlikely. Sapphire is second only to diamond in hardness and shrugs off everyday marking.

Does it need a battery?

Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.

What size strap does it take?

8mm. Any strap of that width will fit, and on most modern watches quick-release bars make the swap a two-minute job with no tools.

Is it a men's or women's watch?

Listed as women's.
