Introducing Captain, by Bernhardt The Captain is Bernhardts refined dress watch: slim, polished, automatic, and built around beautifully textured guilloché dials. The new collection launches in three references: Fog: Silver Guilloché with Heat-Treated Blued Hands Cove: Blue Guilloché in Stainless Steel Cypress: Green Guilloché in Titanium Nitride Rose Gold PVD Each Captain features a 38mm case, sapphire crystal, applied numerals, a premium U.S.-made leather strap, and the Miyota 9039 automatic movement, regulated in-house by Bernhardt. At just 9.55mm thick with a compact 45mm lug-to-lug, Captain was designed around proportion. It wears cleanly under a cuff, sits comfortably across a wide range of wrists, and brings enough polish for dress occasions while remaining easy to wear every day.

Metropolis Verdict

Who this watch is really for

developing data

Best for

Collectors looking for a cleaner, dress-leaning independent watch rather than another pure sports watch.
Mechanical-watch buyers who want a proven automatic or hand-wound movement in an independent design.

Skip if

You need a swim-ready sports watch with more water-resistance headroom.
You want quartz convenience with minimal setting, winding, or service concerns.
You need a fully documented spec sheet before shortlisting.

Value note: The value case leans on mechanical-watch appeal and the brand's design choices more than raw specification dominance.
