Baume & Mercier Riviera 10829 is the men's version of the iconic sporty and elegant watch from the Riviera collection. Its design reflects its predecessor, first launched in 1973. Alongside the distinctive case shape, the most prominent feature of the Riviera models is the dial, with its fine texture resembling rippling water reflecting the sun's rays. Their distinctive appearance makes them a choice for those looking for a sporty and elegant men's watch.
Models in the Riviera collection are instantly recognisable by their twelve-sided bezel with four screws, referencing the design of the sporty steel Riviera models first introduced by the brand in 1973. The watch's appearance expresses freedom and casual elegance and embodies quality watchmaking. Its versatility is a particular advantage: its combination of features makes it suitable for sport, use in water and everyday wear.
The Baume & Mercier Riviera M0A10829 has a white dial with the characteristic wave texture and a sunburst finish, complemented by a contrasting black minute track around the edge of the dial. The harmonious two-tone design is completed by a combination of silver applied indices, rhodium-plated hands and a black seconds hand tipped with the Phi symbol. The black and white design represents balance, harmony and the beauty of life's contrasts.
The watch is powered by a Sellita SW200 automatic mechanical movement with a power reserve of approximately 38 hours. The movement operates at a frequency of 28800 vibrations per hour and offers winding via the crown, a stop-seconds function when setting the time (hacking) and a date at 3 o'clock.
The distinctive dial is protected by a highly scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. It also has an anti-reflective coating, ensuring readability even in direct sunlight. Sapphire is also used for the case back, through which the mechanical movement can be observed.
The steel case is complemented by a three-row steel strap with a butterfly clasp. The four functional screws in the bezel, satin finish and integrated strap reinforce the watch's sporty character. The strap also features a quick-release system, making it easy to change without tools.
Super-LumiNova luminescence on the hands and indices improves readability in low light. The model has a water resistance of 100 m. The case diameter is 42 mm, making the watch suitable for most men's wrists.

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.
