The story of Baume & Mercier dates back to 1830, when brothers Louis-Victor and Célestin Baume opened a watchmaking workshop in the Swiss town of Les Bois. From the very beginning, the brand stood out for its technical excellence and the classic elegance of its creations.
In 1918, with the arrival of Paul Mercier, the Baume & Mercier Maison was officially born, combining Swiss watchmaking artistry with refined and innovative aesthetics.
Throughout the 20th century, Baume & Mercier won numerous international awards, including ten Grand Prix at the Kew-Teddington Chronometry Observatory, thanks to the precision of its movements. The Maison’s motto – "Accept only perfection, only manufacture watches of the highest quality" – fully reflects its commitment to excellence.
Among the most beloved models are:
Each Baume & Mercier collection is designed to accompany life’s important moments, with a touch of class and reliability.
A vintage Baume & Mercier is a jewel of Swiss style and craftsmanship. These models—often less known than other luxury brands—offer top-tier quality at an accessible price, making them a smart choice for collectors and enthusiasts.
With their understated and sophisticated design, Baume & Mercier vintage watches are perfect for those seeking a timepiece with character—yet discreet enough to wear daily or preserve as a collectible.
