Unveiled at SIHH 2015 luxury watch exhibition, the new Classima range for women offers new dedicated 36.5 mm-diameter mechanical self-winding or quartz models graced with a fine sunray guilloché decor.
Featuring an attractive 36.5 mm-diameter size, the six new Classima Women references presented in steel or two-tone versions are driven by a precise Swiss made quartz caliber or by a more traditional mechanical self-winding movement visible through the sapphire crystal case back.
A distinctive token of the Women’s collection, a fine sunray guilloché decor enhances the white or natural mother-of-pearl dials, sometimes set with 8 diamonds, or featuring a delicate moon-phase aperture shining out across the Roman numerals.
The hour is swept over by slender hands. Ideal proportions, functionality and elegance: these attributes of success are complemented with a colorful alligator strap or a metal bracelet, setting the perfect final touch of femininity.
Entirely in keeping with the Baume & Mercier principles of fine watchmaking and affordable luxury, this new Classima will appeal to elegant women buoyed up by their first personal or professional successes and looking forward to a radiant future.
