Bering 15239-722 Black Titanium Slim Solar Bracelet Watch - W74277
Ref. 15239-722
Sits in Bering’s upper tier here — more premium than three quarters of the Bering watches we list, which start at £75.
Price range £75 to £259 across 37 Bering watches in stock.Bering's Slim Solar line draws its design language from Scandinavian minimalism — the Arctic light, the clean geometry — and this model applies that thinking to the practical problem of a watch that runs itself. The solar cell sits beneath the dial, converting any ambient light into stored charge, and once full it will run for six to twelve months in complete darkness. There is no winding, no battery replacement. At 39mm across and 9mm deep, the all-titanium construction keeps weight off the wrist in a way steel cannot match, and the slim profile sits under a shirt cuff without resistance. The black dial reads simply: slim applied markers, refined hands, and a single red seconds hand that provides just enough contrast to be useful without breaking the monochrome logic. The brushed finish across both case and bracelet keeps the surface consistent rather than decorative.

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?
Yes. At 100m it is rated for swimming and snorkelling, though not for diving.
Will the glass scratch?
Unlikely. Sapphire is second only to diamond in hardness and shrugs off everyday marking.
Does it need a battery?
No. It charges from light, and the cell behind that is designed to last a decade or more.
What size strap does it take?
21mm. 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 men's, though at 39mm it sits in the range that suits anyone.
