Story
Milestones

Baume & Mercier is a traditional Swiss watch manufacturer, founded in 1830 in the Jura region by brothers Louis-Victor and Célestin Baume. Today headquartered in Geneva and part of the luxury goods group Richemont, the brand stands for the highest quality, technical finesse, and elegant design. Its diverse collections – including Clifton, Classima, Hampton, Riviera, Capeland, Linea, and Promesse – combine classic watchmaking with contemporary style, ideal for modern customers who appreciate sophisticated timepieces.

The success story began with the founders' motto: "Only watches of the highest quality." As early as the mid-19th century, the company expanded into the British Empire via a branch in London, achieving chronometry records and international awards. In 1918, William Baume and Paul Mercier founded "Baume & Mercier" in Geneva, consciously focusing on elegant wristwatches with an avant-garde design. The brand was awarded the prestigious Geneva Seal as early as 1919. From the 1920s to the 1940s, the Maison launched iconic models such as the Marquise – an elegant ladies' watch – with its structured and artistic design. In the 1950s and 60s, the introduction of the classic round case shape – visually symbolized by the Phi logo – defined the brand's image. The 1970s brought creative shapes such as Galaxie and Stardust, as well as the sporty Riviera in steel, followed by models such as Linea and Hampton in the 1980s and 90s.
