What movement powers the Bersigar Polaris 1790 Silver Blue?
It runs on a Japanese 9020 automatic movement. It winds itself from the motion of your wrist, so there is no battery to replace.
Can I swim with the Bersigar Polaris 1790 Silver Blue?
Yes for swimming. It is rated to 100m (10 ATM), which covers rain, hand-washing and pool or sea swimming. It is not intended for scuba diving, and avoid hot showers and saunas.
Will the Bersigar Polaris 1790 Silver Blue fit my wrist?
The case measures 42mm — a mid-to-large size that suits average and larger wrists (roughly 16.5 cm / 6.5 in and up). Our watch size guide (/pages/watch-size-guide) explains how to measure your wrist.
What does the dial of the Bersigar Polaris 1790 Silver Blue look like?
It has a sunburst fumé blue with small-seconds register dial, framed by a fixed sapphire bezel, under an anti-reflective sapphire crystal.
Are there other versions of the Bersigar Polaris 1790?
Yes. Other versions we carry include the Bersigar Polaris 1790 Silver Black, the Bersigar Polaris 1790 Silver Green, the Bersigar Polaris 1790 Rose Gold Brown. Availability changes with stock, so the collection page always shows what is in stock today.
Who is the Bersigar Polaris 1790 Silver Blue for?
On the ChronoSeasons dial it sits at Hour VI — Field & Adventure, part of the Expedition season, and suits travel, the outdoors and long days on the move. It also appears in our Pilot & Aviation edit.
Is the Bersigar Polaris 1790 Silver Blue 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.
Love the vintage aviation look of the 42mm case and the small-seconds sub-register at six. The fumé blue dial catches light nicely on my wrist. Shipping carrier delayed the box by two days, though the watch itself is great.

Tight tolerances and legible dial
No play in the crown stem, clean brushing on the 42mm 316L steel case, and clear anti-reflective coating on the sapphire glass. The 9020 automatic has been steady and reliable on my 7.5-inch wrist.

Impressive 9020 High-Beat Caliber
Finding a Japanese 9020 automatic movement under $250 is rare enough, and pairing it with a sapphire crystal and fixed sapphire bezel makes this Polaris 1790 a strong value in my collection. The 28,800 bph sweep on the small-seconds register at 6 o'clock is smooth, and the fumé blue dial transitions nicely from bright navy in the center to dark midnight at the flange. Wears comfortably on my wrist.

Polaris 1790 42mm Fumé Blue
Bought this for my brother when he passed the bar exam. The smoked fumé blue dial and small-seconds subdial look sharp in a courtroom, and he was pumped to get a real automatic.

Great on Sailcloth
The stock blue alligator-grain leather looks dressy, and swapping on a navy sailcloth strap with white stitching turned it into a great coastal weekend watch on my wrist.

Son's 40th Gift
Purchased the Silver Blue Polaris for my son's 40th birthday. He wears blue suits to work almost every day, and when he opened the box he immediately swapped it onto his wrist.

clean build and accurate
The Japanese 9020 movement has kept within +6 seconds a day since arriving, and the fixed sapphire bezel lines up cleanly with the case. Only downside is the blue leather strap was pretty stiff for the first 3-4 days before breaking in.

42mm Polaris 1790 Blue 9020 Automatic
Measured the 316L steel case at 42mm with clean lug bevels and a flat anti-reflective sapphire crystal. The 9020 automatic winds smoothly at the crown, and the sunburst fumé blue dial is easy to read on my wrist.
