BERSIGAR Luxaura 1682: Black Dial Edition
The BERSIGAR Luxaura 1682 Black is built for world travelers, combining dual-timezone utility with classic expedition styling. Defined by a fixed brushed steel 24-hour bezel, an obsidian black dial, and a distinctive orange GMT hand, this 40mm timepiece delivers superior legibility and rugged refinement for international journeys and daily wear.
Equipped with the Pearl DG5833 GMT automatic movement, the watch enables precise simultaneous tracking of two distinct time zones while winding continuously through natural wrist motion without requiring batteries. The face features silver-outlined geometric luminescent indices, Mercedes-style hands, and a date display at 3 o'clock magnified by an external cyclops lens. Machined from solid 316L polished stainless steel, it is paired with a matching stainless steel three-link bracelet, a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, and a threaded screw-down crown rated for 10 BAR (100M) pressure resistance.

From the journal
Owners say
Always had a soft spot for fixed-bezel explorer-style GMTs from my aviation days. The contrast between the obsidian black dial, geometric indices, and the GMT hand makes reading two time zones instantaneous. Feels balanced on my wrist.
I fly light singles on weekends and work with remote dev teams on UTC during the week, so a no-nonsense 24-hour GMT is always on my wrist. The Pearl DG5833 sets easily and the geometric lume plots are super clear.
Sharp brushed bezel and legible black dial. Wears flat on my 6.75-inch wrist.
The fixed brushed steel bezel and black dial give this a clean, understated look for client pitches. Fits well under a button-down cuff on my wrist, though taking links out took 15 minutes with stubborn pins.
Wasn't sure what to expect ordering online at this price, but the brushed 316L bezel and solid steel bracelet feel much more expensive than $340. Shipping carrier delayed the box by two days, though the watch itself is great.
Thanks for your patience with the carrier delay, Cole! Really glad the 1682 made up for the wait once it arrived.
Picked this up for my brother as a groomsman gift before my wedding. He travels a lot for work so the GMT hand is actually useful for him, and he hasn't taken it off since the rehearsal dinner.
Bought this for my son's college graduation before he starts his new job. He really likes the clean black dial and fixed brushed steel bezel, though resizing the bracelet took me nearly 20 minutes because two of the pins were stubborn.
Congratulations to your son on graduating, Gabriel! Sorry the pins gave you a workout while sizing it, and we wish him the best in his new role.
