Bering 15239-778 Titanium Slim Solar Green Dial Bracelet Watch - W74276
Ref. 15239-778
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 is built around a straightforward proposition: a solar cell beneath the dial converts any available light — not only direct sun — into charge, stored well enough to keep the watch running for six to twelve months in complete darkness once full. There is no battery to replace and no winding to remember. At 8mm thick, a 39mm titanium case sits considerably flatter than most sport watches at this rating, which means it disappears under a cuff and wears lighter than the specification suggests — titanium at this size carries almost nothing on the wrist. The green dial and case give it a coherent, purposeful look that reads as considered rather than incidental.

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.
Is it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as unisex, and at this size it suits any wrist that takes the dimensions.
