Baume & Mercier Riviera Chronograph 10722 is a men's version of the iconic sporty-chic Riviera watch, enhanced with the popular stopwatch function. The design does not deny its predecessor, first launched in 1973. The most striking feature of the Riviera models, alongside the characteristic case shape, is the dial - in this case in slate grey with a subtle satin finish. Its distinctive look makes it a great choice for men's sports watches.

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. You will especially appreciate the versatility of the watch - its set of features makes it ideal for use in sports, in the water and for everyday use.

The Baume & Mercier Riviera M0A10722 model has a harmonious slate grey dial with contrasting rose-gold hands and embossed indices at the hour positions. A fine line in the same colour design winds through the centre of the case, adding sparkle to the watch.
The watch is powered by a reliable Valjoux 7750 self-winding Swiss mechanical movement with a power reserve of 48 hours. The self-winding movement, with a frequency of 28,800 semi-frequencies per hour, offers a crown winding option, a stop-seconds function forhacking the time, a handy date and day display at the 3 o'clock position and the popular stopwatch function. The sub-dials at the 6 and 12 o'clock positions display the measured values.

The unmistakable dial is protected by a high-scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. It is also anti-reflective, ensuring excellent legibility even in direct sunlight. Sapphire has also been used for the caseback, through which the operation of the mechanical movement can be observed.

The steel case of the watch is fitted with a titanium lunette with a sandblasted finish and is complemented by a grey rubber strap with a canvas pattern, finished with a butterfly clasp. The integrated strap promotes the sporty feel of the watch and is equipped with a quick-release system, making it easy to change without tools.

The Super-LumiNova luminescence on the indices and hands ensures better legibility in low-light conditions. The water resistance of this model is 100 m. The diameter of the case is 43 mm, so the watch fits perfectly on most men's wrists.
