Baume & Mercier was founded in 1830 in Les Bois, Switzerland, making it the 7th oldest watchmaking brand in the world. The brand was established by brothers Louis-Victor and Célestin Baume, who, true to their motto "Accept only perfection, manufacture only watches of the highest quality", created exceptional timepieces with an outstanding reputation that the brand maintains to this day. Baume & Mercier watches combine performance, technological innovation, and refined design, and are still synonymous with top quality.

The brand is recognized as a pioneer in the watchmaking field, producing elegant and avant-garde timepieces that have influenced entire eras and styles. It is known for its iconic Marquise models from the 1940s and its collections Riviera (the Riviera model was first introduced in 1973 and became one of the first steel sports watches) and Hampton.
Among other achievements, the brand boasts its in-house Baumatic automatic movement, offering a power reserve of up to five days and chronometer-level accuracy.
Today, Baume & Mercier is part of the Richemont International SA group, which also includes prestigious watchmaking brands such as Cartier, Jaeger-LeCoultre, IWC Schaffhausen, Van Cleef & Arpels, Vacheron Constantin, A. Lange & Söhne, and others.
