Baume et Mercier - Clifton Baumatic Day-Date Moonphase 10593

Baume & Mercier presented the new Clifton Baumatic Day-Date Moonphase adorned with a gradient blue lacquered dial. Price of ref. 10593 is €4950/$5000

Baume et Mercier presented a new variation of its Clifton Baumatic Day-Date Moonphase, adorned for the first time with a gradient blue lacquered dial.

The new reference 10593 comes in a polished and satin-brushed 42 mm x 13.2 mm round case that houses a mechanical Manufacture movement providing the useful indications of date, day of the week and phase of the moon.

Protected by an anti-reflective and slightly domed sapphire crystal, the dial darkens toward the outside offering an ideal contrast to the white minute track, the five rhodium-plated hands and the trapezoidal riveted indices.

At 6 o’clock, the moon phase display shows a polished rhodium-plated moon disk surrounded by a black starry sky that unfolds through a transparent grey sapphire crystal. The date around it is visually balanced by the day-of-the-week indication at 12 o'clock.

Secured by four screws, the sapphire crystal case back showcases the high-performance self-winding Baumatic BM14 manufacture movement beating at 28,800 vibrations per hour (4 Hz) and offering a 5-day power reserve (120 hours).

Its silicon balance-spring is antimagnetic, three times lighter than the ordinary alloys used for hairspring, resistant to corrosion and less sensitive to small impacts and repeated vibrations.

The watch is matched to an interchangeable black alligator leather strap with square scales featuring tone-on-tone stitching on the top and blue stitching on the inside. It can optionally be replaced, without needing any tool, by a Patina calfskin strap available in five patina colours: blue, brown, gray, green, and red. 

Water resistant to 50 metres / 165 feet, the Baume et Mercier Clifton Baumatic Day-Date Moonphase ref. M0A10593 has a retail price of Euro 4,950 (including VAT) / US$ 5,000 (excluding local sales taxes). baume-et-mercier.com
