The chronograph mono-pusher is a technological achievement, featuring an enviable degree of aesthetic refinement.
Just one click enables the wearer to start, stop and reset this watch. Moreover, the crown and pushers, merged into a single device, add an aerodynamic touch to the watch case. The hallmark of the novel
Baume & Mercier Chronograph Mono-pusher is a
single button, for the first time released by Baume & Mercier in 1938.
Sculptured in 18-carat pink gold, the chronograph round case features the dimensions of 41mmx9.6mm, diameter and thickness indicated respectively.
Consistent with the up-to-date style of the William Baume line, the new watch dial exposes a magnificent silver guilloche presented in a basketry style, as well as two horizontal sub-dials, located at 9 and 3 o’clock: the first indicates small seconds and the second one displays chronograph minutes. There is a satin finish surrounding the chronograph sub-dials and hour circle.
The chronograph seconds are indicated centrally. This model also demonstrates bridges, embellished with Cotes de Geneve, blued steel screws and a see-through case-back with sapphire crystal.
The chronograph mono-pusher is animated by
Lajoux-Perret caliber 5000 hand-wound movement, set with 21 jewels. The movement runs at 21,600 vibrations per hour and offers a power reserve of 42 hours.
The watch comes with a dark brown hand-stitched, alligator strap, exposing scaly squares.
The strap is fitted with the 18-carat pink gold ardillon buckle, which is engraved with Phi symbol.
The chronograph is launched as
limited series of 20 pieces.

Baume & Mercier has enlarged its
Riviera Magnum sports timepiece line by two novel models – a limited series
“all black” chronograph, offering a flyback function along with a skeletonized dial and an athletic
three-pointer and
date display model.
Both watches are presented in a new XXL size: they boast a diameter of 45 mm. The previous interpretations’ diameter was equal to 43 mm.
The distinct features of these two innovative newcomers to
the Riviera Magnum collection include much more than just their lavish size. They are also notable for a case, one side of which resembles the shape of a car radiator grille, novel hollowed hands, a larger crown as well as a new rubber strap, which demonstrates pure lines and is fitted with an adjustable triple folding clasp.
Alongside with the novelties introduced, the new
Riviera Magnum XXL timepieces are characterized by the sporting, refined features of the iconic Riviera collection - solidly affixed to the case by four black PVD-treated screws, the twelve-sided bezel has been typical for the Riviera assemblage since 1973.
The watches also boast
200-meter water-resistance, attainable due to the case construction with its screw-down back and crown. Another time-tested attribute of the models in question is scratch-resistant glareproofed sapphire crystals, which guarantee optimal durability and accurate reading of the hours.
These timepieces surely retain the highest degree of excellence as well as the respect for the fine craftsmanship’s rules, which have become a perfect basis for
Baume & Mercier’s strong international reputation.
An unrivalled blend of refined technology, up-to-date aesthetic and unparalleled functionally, the innovative
Riviera Magnum XXL timepieces are undoubtedly intended for action and performance.
