Dad's 60th Birthday
Bought this for my dad's 60th birthday in Vegas. He has always liked two-tone watches and the rose gold with deep marine blue really caught his eye. Fit his wrist after removing two links.
The watch
Built around a marine blue dial, the Bersigar Ocular 1713 Two-Tone Rose Gold Blue pairs a 42mm case with a Seiko VD53 quartz chronograph movement. It brings a unidirectional blue sapphire bezel, 100m water resistance and a sapphire crystal. On the ChronoSeasons dial it sits at Hour IV — Dive, part of the Expedition season — and suits swimming, sailing and beach travel.
BERSIGAR Ocular 1713: Two-Tone Rose Gold Blue Edition
The BERSIGAR Ocular 1713 Two-Tone Edition merges heavy-duty maritime diver engineering with the warmth of luxury bi-metal styling. Defined by an ergonomic 42mm stainless steel case accented with rose gold PVD elements, an ultra-hard blue sapphire dive bezel with gold-tone graduations, a bi-compax marine blue dial, and a matching two-tone five-link bracelet, this chronograph delivers an assertive aquatic presence balanced by an elevated executive finish.
Powered by the Seiko Japanese TMI VD53 quartz chronograph movement, the caliber provides battery-regulated timing accuracy, reliable elapsed-time tracking, and low-maintenance daily performance. The rich blue dial features polished rose-gold-toned circular and baton indices with strong luminous fill, skeletonized broad-arrow hands, a framed date window at 6 o'clock, and dual sub-registers tracking 60-minute elapsed timing and a 24-hour cycle. Machined from solid 316L brushed and polished stainless steel with selective rose gold PVD plating, the watch is equipped with an anti-reflective sapphire crystal, a threaded screw-down crown with protective shoulders, classic pump pushers, and 10 BAR (100M) water resistance.

Owners say
Bought this for my dad's 60th birthday in Vegas. He has always liked two-tone watches and the rose gold with deep marine blue really caught his eye. Fit his wrist after removing two links.
We spend most weekends out on the water in Florida and this 42mm diver handles the sun and splashes easily. The anti-reflective sapphire crystal cuts glare when checking the time on deck, and the 316L steel bracelet feels sturdy on my wrist.
Ordered this for my brother who stood as best man at my wedding. The blue and rose gold combination looks much pricier than $260 in person and he loved it. Shipping carrier delayed the package by two days, so order early if you have a deadline.
Congratulations on the wedding, Douglas! Sorry the carrier held up the package for a couple of days, but we're thrilled it made it in time for your brother.
Most two-tone watches feel too delicate for the water, but this 1713 has real 100m water resistance and a tough sapphire bezel. Wore it swimming in Newport and rinsing off the steel bracelet was effortless.
Checked the PVD coating under a loupe and the rose gold brushing on the center links is clean with no bleed. The VD53 quartz movement tracks accurately and the sapphire bezel aligns at twelve. Put it on a spare leather strap at first, which was stiff for 3-4 days.
Thanks for the detailed check, Jim! Glad the two-tone finishing and bezel alignment met your standards.
Wore this sailing out on Long Island Sound last weekend. The marine blue dial and rose gold markers are easy to read at a glance, and the 100m water resistance and steel bracelet handled the spray with zero trouble.
The rose gold PVD accents on the steel bracelet give this a dressier look that works great with a button-down shirt in client meetings. Fits my wrist comfortably and clears my cuffs fine.
Got this two-tone rose gold and blue model for my dad's retirement dinner. He loves the warmth of the rose gold accents against the marine blue dial and wears it almost every day now.
