Is Baume & Mercier a luxury watch brand?

We think of Baume & Mercier as a heritage Swiss watch brand that’s producing affordable watches that won’t be out of date in a few years’ time. A Baume & Mercier watch is built to last, and the design style reflects this ethos. It’s a luxury brand thanks to its long history and traditional methods, but you’ll want to wear your Baume & Mercier watch every day (rather than locking it in the safe).

Where are Baume & Mercier watches made?

Baume & Mercier was founded in 1830 by brothers Louis-Victor and Célestin Baume in Les Bois, a small village in the Jura, one of Switzerland's three geographical regions. By 1918, their ancestor William Baume had partnered with Paul Mercier to open Baume & Mercier in Geneva, Switzerland, where the brand remains today. Its head office is in the city, but its manufacturing is carried out in Les Brenets, just a couple of hours away in Swiss Jura. In 1988, Baume & Mercier joined the Richemont Group of luxury brands.

What watch movements do Baume & Mercier watches feature?

Baume & Mercier watches contain quartz movements that are battery-powered and automatic movements that utilise the kinetics of your body or a self-winding mechanism to keep time. Lots of factors might influence your choice, including price. Baume & Mercier Classima and Clifton watches also have complications, like moonphases and chronographs. These are features built into the watch movement that can be useful or just great to look at. Remember to view the Specifications tab on each watch to view all its essential information, including movement, warranty, case width and model number.
