The watch
Bersigar Luxaura 1706 Black Blue GMT: a matte obsidian black-dial GMT watch in a 40mm solid 316L brushed stainless steel case, driven by a Pearl DG5833 GMT automatic movement. It brings a second time zone for travel, a bi-directional rotating 24-hour bezel and 100m water resistance. On the ChronoSeasons dial it sits at Hour VI — Field & Adventure, part of the Expedition season — and suits adventure travel and everyday rough use.
BERSIGAR Luxaura 1706: Batman GMT Edition
The BERSIGAR Luxaura 1706 Batman is engineered for globetrotters and adventure enthusiasts, merging robust tool-watch construction with high-contrast dual-timezone tracking. Defined by its iconic split-color black and blue 24-hour bezel, an obsidian black dial, signature snowflake hands, and an electric blue GMT arrow hand, this 40mm timepiece delivers superior legibility and utilitarian refinement suited for crossing time zones or daily wear.
Powered by the Pearl DG5833 GMT automatic movement, the self-winding caliber drives independent 24-hour dual-timezone functionality alongside traditional timekeeping, winding continuously through natural wrist kinetic motion without requiring batteries. The dial features high-grade luminous geometric markers, polished snowflake hands, and a discreet date aperture at 3 o'clock. Machined from solid 316L brushed stainless steel with a coin-edge bezel and prominent unprotected winding crown accented by a red stem ring, it is fitted with a solid steel three-link Oyster-style bracelet, an anti-reflective sapphire crystal, and a threaded screw-down crown rated for 10 BAR (100M) pressure resistance.

From the journal
Owners say
Checked the specs when it arrived: 40mm brushed 316L case, flat sapphire with AR coating, and a bi-directional 24-hour bezel that turns smoothly. Clasp locks cleanly and legibility on the matte obsidian dial is spot on.
Appreciate the thorough check, Brent! Glad the build and matte dial met your standards.
Matte black dial has zero glare. Fits my wrist well.
Bought this for my nephew's college graduation before his backpacking trip across Europe. He loved the matte black dial and blue-black 24-hour bezel. He mentioned the lume is decent for a few hours at night though not an all-night torch.
Wasn't sure what a $290 automatic GMT would feel like in hand, but the brushed 316L case and anti-reflective sapphire crystal are legit. Resizing the bracelet took me about 20 minutes because the pins were pretty stubborn.
Sized the 316L bracelet for workdays, then swapped in a grey and blue NATO strap for the weekend. The 20mm lugs make strap changes easy. Rotor has a slight audible whir in a dead-quiet room, which is normal for the Pearl DG5833.
Took the steel bracelet off on day two and put it on a black FKM tropic rubber strap for Florida summers, which makes the blue and black bezel pop. Only gripe is the date window is a little small without my reading glasses.
That black tropic rubber combo sounds sharp for Florida weather, Troy! Thanks for sharing your feedback with us.
As a retired vet and machinist, I appreciate a straightforward 24-hour bi-directional bezel and a matte black dial with zero glare. Tracking military time on the blue and black bezel is quick, and the 40mm steel case feels stout.
