It runs on a Miyota 9039 automatic movement, regulated in-house by Bernhardt. It winds itself from the motion of your wrist, so there is no battery to replace.
Will the Bernhardt Captain Fog fit my wrist?
The case measures 38mm (9.55mm thick, 45mm lug-to-lug) — a classic, understated size that suits small to average wrists (roughly 15-17.5 cm / 6-6.9 in). Our watch size guide (/pages/watch-size-guide) explains how to measure your wrist.
How thin is the Bernhardt Captain Fog?
The 38mm case is just 9.55mm thick with a 45mm lug-to-lug span, slim enough to slide under a shirt cuff. The Miyota 9039 automatic inside is regulated in-house by Bernhardt.
Who is the Bernhardt Captain Fog for?
On the ChronoSeasons dial it sits at Hour I — Minimalist Dress, part of the Boardroom season, and suits client meetings, weddings and evenings that call for a jacket.
Is the Bernhardt Captain Fog authentic, and what warranty is included?
Yes. It ships brand-new and boxed from the brand's verified channel. Unworn watches can be returned within 30 days of delivery.
Bought the blue strap model for my brother's 60th birthday. He loves the silver guilloche dial and wears it to the pharmacy almost daily. He did mention the unidirectional rotor has a slight audible whir in a dead-quiet room, which is normal for the 9039.

Thank you for the review, Ralph, and happy 60th to your brother! You're spot on that the Miyota 9000-series unidirectional ball-bearing rotor can make a faint spin sound in a silent room. We're thrilled he's enjoying it every day.

Regulated 9039 Performs Well
Having collected mechanical watches since my Air Force days, I appreciate a no-date Miyota 9039 with no phantom crown position. Bernhardt's in-house regulation has mine running within +3 seconds a day over the first two weeks. The 38mm diameter and 45mm lug-to-lug proportion well on my wrist, and the thermally blued hands over the silver guilloche center look very traditional under the flat sapphire.

Miyota 9039 Silver Dial on Brown
Photos don't do the silver texture justice. In sunlight the blue hands jump right off the dial. Super light on my wrist and comfortable for ten-hour days.

Nice break from my chronographs
I spend weekends around vintage sports cars and normally wear 42mm racing chronographs, but my wrist needed a proper dress piece for charity dinners. The heat-anodized blue hands pop against the silver guilloche dial, and the blue leather strap matches well.

Retirement Gift for My Brother
Picked up the bracelet version for my older brother's retirement dinner. He has worn the same beat-up quartz watch for twenty years, and when he opened this he immediately noticed how smoothly the blued second hand sweeps across the silver dial.

Bernhardt 38mm Silver Guilloche
Bought the brown leather option for my fiancé as a wedding gift. He is an engineer who obsesses over movements and case thickness, and he could not stop staring at the blued hands against the silver dial. He wore it for the rehearsal dinner and ceremony.

sharp office watch
The silver guilloche and blue hands look great with a navy suit in client meetings. At 9.55mm it clears dress shirt cuffs easily on my wrist. Only minor gripe is the clasp setup doesn't give half-link granularity so fit gets slightly snug in warm weather.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Peter! Glad the slim 9.55mm case and blued hands are working well for your client meetings.

Classy School Day Wear
I wear a suit every day and wanted a silver-dial automatic on a steel bracelet. The blued hands against the silver pattern are easy to read across a auditorium. The clasp and links felt a little stiff out of the box before working them around a few times.

38mm Silver Guilloche Dress Watch
Needed a traditional silver dial on brown leather for contractor bids and bank meetings. At 9.55mm thick it slides under starched cuffs without catching. The outer presentation box was fairly basic, though the watch is clearly where the money went.

Machining on the dial is legit
I am always skeptical buying microbrand watches online without handling the steel first. The stamping on this silver guilloche dial and the heat-anodized blue hands are way cleaner than I expected for the price. The blue leather strap looks sharp on my wrist.
