Baume & Mercier Riviera 10661 is a unisex version of the iconic sporty and elegant Riviera watch. The design does not deny its predecessor, first launched in 1973. As with the men's models, the dial is an unmistakable feature alongside the shape of the case - its subtle texture reminiscent of rippled water with reflections of the sun's rays. Thanks to its specific appearance, it is a great choice for a sporty and elegant ladies' watch.

The models from the Riviera collection are instantly recognisable thanks to the 12-sided lunette with four screws, a reference to the design of the Riviera sports steel models first introduced by the brand in 1973. The watch's look expresses freedom, casual elegance and is the epitome of fine watchmaking.

Baume & Mercier Riviera M0A10661 has a slate grey dial with a typical texture, complemented by distinctive rose-gold hands and embossed indices at the hour positions. A fine gilt line in the same colour scheme winds through the centre of the case, adding sparkle to the watch.
The watch is powered by a mechanical self-winding Sellita SW200 movement with a power reserve of around 38 hours. The movement, with a frequency of 28,800 semi-frequencies per hour, offers a winding crown, a stop-seconds function when setting the time (hacking) and a date at the 3 o'clock position.
The dial is protected by a sapphire crystal with high scratch resistance. It is also anti-reflective, ensuring excellent legibility even in direct sunlight. Sapphire has also been used for the dial, through which the operation of the mechanical movement can be observed.
The steel case of the watch, with a slate grey sandblasted titanium lunette, is complemented by a three-row bracelet finished with a butterfly clasp. It is the 4 functional screws in the lunette, the satin finish and the integrated bracelet that support the sporty feel of the watch. In addition, the bracelet is equipped with a quick-release system, making it very easy to change the strap without tools. The Super-LumiNova C1 luminescence on the hands and indexes ensures better legibility in low-light conditions. The water resistance of this model is 50 m. The diameter of the case is 36 mm, ideal not only for women's wrists.
