About Baume & Mercier
The Baume brothers opened a trading house in Les Bois, in the Jura, in 1830. William Baume went into partnership with Paul Mercier in Geneva in 1918. The 1973 Riviera, with its twelve-sided bezel, is its best-known sports model.
The brand, long part of the Richemont group, was sold in 2024 to the Italian Damiani group. Its Baumatic calibre offers a five-day power reserve.
