Gear Up For Baume And Mercier Watches: Discover What Makes Them Stand Out To Exploring Their Most Popular Picks

Baume and Mercier watches are no stranger to excellent Swiss craftsmanship. After all, we are referring to a brand dating back to 1830 (precisely over 190 years!), which has since brought classic style, modern innovation, and functionality to every wrist it comes in contact with. 

Baume and Mercier was founded by brothers Louis-Victor and Célestin, who quickly built a reputation for precision and high-quality standards. So, if you are looking for luxury that will last, you’ve come to the right place. Let’s explore what makes this brand stand out and why it is a great investment as your next timepiece or as a gift for someone else. 

Craftsmanship & Materials: Quality From Clasp To Dial

Swiss Precision

All Baume and Mercier watches are crafted with a focus on precision, using Swiss automatic and quartz movements, so you can count on accuracy and reliability in all circumstances.

High-End Materials

Baume and Mercier use premium materials like 18K gold, stainless steel, and titanium to ensure that their selection of watches always remains durable. They also incorporate scratch-resistant sapphire crystals and even alligator leather.

Technical Advancements

Some models, like the Clifton Baumatic, come with a five-day power reserve and anti-magnetic resistance, showing the brand's dedication to functional innovation.

What Sets Baume And Mercier Apart From Other Swiss Watches

Affordable Luxury

While many Swiss brands focus on exclusive high-end markets, Baume and Mercier watches provide the same quality craftsmanship and aesthetic appeal at more approachable prices. This makes them a fantastic choice for those entering the world of Swiss watches or for collectors looking to add a designer watch to their collection without a steep investment.

Focus On Wearability

While some luxury watches are designed more as showpieces, Baume and Mercier watches focus on creating models that are both beautiful and wearable. They are made for low-key occasions to upscale events, so you get the best of both worlds and the most out of your investment.

Commitment To Sustainability

Baume and Mercier source sustainable materials to reduce waste in production.

Baume And Mercier Collections: Finding Your Perfect Match

Clifton Collection: For The Finer Moments In Life

Like a mirror, Clifton models reflect Baume and Mercier watches attention to detail, from intricate dial features down to the steel cases. They are ideally worn for formal events because of their sophisticated characteristics. Clifton is also a great choice for those who typically host dinner parties to attending fancy business meetings or simply for anyone who likes to dress up and stay on top of their A game. 

Classima Collection: For Everyday Wristwear 

While the Classima models still elude luxury, they are known for their simplicity. The elegance and style are subtle and not overly dramatic, so it is a great option for men and women who tend to lean toward minimalistic looks or are seeking a watch they feel comfortable wearing every day. Think busy parents, in-office work days, and casual weekend wear. 

Riviera Collection: For The Sporty Go-Getter 

As you may have put two and two together, these models are inspired by the French Riviera. Due to their durability and toughness, they appeal most to those with active lifestyles or those that love outdoor activities where they need a watch they can rely on.

Tips For Caring For Baume And Mercier Watches

Regular Servicing

It’s best to have your watch serviced every 3 to 5 years by a certified Baume and Mercier service center to help keep the movement running smoothly.

Protect Against Water Damage

While many Baume and Mercier watches are water-resistant, it’s critical to check the specific rating for your model and what depth it is designed to handle. Another tip is to make sure the crown is always pushed in fully to maintain the watch’s seal.

Store Properly

When you’re not wearing Baume and Mercier watches, keep them in a cool, dry place and in their original case. If you own an automatic model, an easy way to keep it running when you are not using it is with a watch winder. Another point you want to keep in mind is taking it off when you are at the beach or when there will be long periods of sun exposure. UV rays can fade the dial and cause discoloration.

Avoid Exposure To Chemicals

It is best to put your watch on after applying perfume or lotion because these can damage the leather strap and also affect the case's finish. If you plan on a day of cleaning, it is best to take your watch off so it isn't exposed to harsh chemicals.

Frequently Clean 

You can wipe down Baume and Mercier watches with a soft, lint-free cloth to keep them in top condition. Waterproof models can handle a more thorough cleaning with a damp cloth. If you are trying to remove dirt and dust in the links, a soft toothbrush is recommended.
