  I'm sure a few of you out here have a Bernhardt. I'm looking at the Globemaster. Any impressions on this brand you guys would like to share?

Murph,

I had the Corsair which has the same case/bracelet and it was a top notch watch is both size, weight and construction. I think you would enjoy it.

Good luck

Griff (zippofan) just picked up one of Fred's Globemasters.  I have an old Corsair and one of the new Sea Sharks.  Well made watches for the money.  ;)

I had a Globemaster and it was a fantastic watch!  It was one of the few watches I've owned that I thought was worth MORE than what I paid for it.  I only sold it because I bought a Doxa Caribbean GMT and only needed one blue and orange GMT watch.  I may pick up one of the new black Globemasters.  I really like that it has a normal dive bezel. 

I would not hesitate to recommend Bernhardt!  Fred is a class act and offers oustanding value with his products! hand6.gif

Outstanding recomendation Capt. It is, in fact, the black Globemaster I'm looking at:).

My black Globemaster is a great watch!  Like Tony mentioned, it has the same case/bracelet as my Corsair, very chunky, heavy and solid feeling.  My only complaint is that the bezel doesn't ratchet as nicely as some others I have, but in both cases they line up perfectly which is a pet peeve of mine.

I highly recommend Bernhardt, plus Fred is great to deal with!

Cheers,
Griff

Sorry Ken. I don't know how to steal pics from others. I've gotten the impression you're the expert at that:D. Google Bernhardt watches and you'll see the one I'm talking about.

You may have to. The wife hasn't yet shown me how to transfer pics from the digi camera to the computer. There are times when I just hate being 'technologicaly challenged':?.

Hi guys !

I own over 80 watches. From an Invicta to a Rolex, with Ocean 7 and Doxa in the middle. Fred sold me 2 watches when it was still Bernhardt Instrument. My Corsair and my Globemaster are simply put the BEST watches for the money I ever got.
The cases are just solid & perfect. The dial color is just out of this world ( the blue of the Globemaster is simply the best of all my blue dial watches ). The ETA movt run good ( + 10 seconds per day. No great but good until I get to regulate them soon ).
The included bracelet is solid end pieces and is just top notch quality.
I have also a SAR. The Bernhardt watches are even better : quality, reliability, design and PRICE !!!!
Fred is a true gentleman out there. Just like Mitch with Ocean 7, Stan with Nauticfish, and Doxa customer service, he is there for you.
Buy from Bernhardt Watches in full confidence.

Best regards,

Thierry
