Swiss luxury watch brand Baume & Mercier has launched a new rose gold version of the Clifton Baumatic Date and Moon Phase with a 39mm case.
Already available in 42mm, the Clifton Baumatic Date and Moon Phase takes on a new case redesigned for this brand-new version in a 39mm diameter, an ideal size for everyone.
With thickness of 12.6 mm, the round case is crafted in satin-polished rose gold (750/1000) and topped with a rose gold crown (750/1000). It is protected by a scratch-resistant domed sapphire crystal treated on both sides with an anti-glare coating. The sapphire crystal case back is fastened by four screws. It may be engraved upon request.
The hour, minute, second, date, and phase of the moon appear gracefully on a finely-grained off-white dial punctuated with facetted, riveted indexes in a slightly elongated trapezoid shape and topped with gold-plated alpha-shaped hands and a gold-plated counter hand.
The calendar and moon phase indications have been redesigned. The date appears within a finely diamond-ground, snailed bezel which reflects the emblematic roundness of the collection and flatters the polished gold-plated moon phase disk, sprinkled with stars against a black background.
The self-winding Baumatic Manufacture movement BM14-1975 AC1 brings this elegant timepiece to life. Beating at a frequency of 4Hz (28,800 vph), this high-precision offers five-day (120-hour) power reserve.
The movement’s decoration reveals circle-grained bridges, a sandblasted and snailed baseplate, and an open-worked gold-plated oscillating weight adorned with snailed “Côtes de Genève” designs.
The model comes with a brown alligator strap with all-square scales, featuring tone-on-tone and burgundy overstitching on the top and bar tacks around the buckle.
This supple strap is interchangeable and may be changed without the need for tools using the very reliable curved spring bar system. It fastens with a satin-polished rose gold (750/1000) pin buckle.
