First released in 1973 and reinterpreted last year, the Riviera watch expresses the Maison’s expertise in design and use of materials. A Baume & Mercier lifestyle icon, this timepiece with pure, slender lines and an immediately recognizable twelve-sided bezel comes into its full maturity. 2022 herald a 42 mm men’s version (Baumatic and self-winding), as well as 33 mm (self-winding) and 36 mm (self-winding and quartz) women’s versions… And the Riviera has not had its last word. It’s about time for enjoyment and joie de vivre.

The legacy of athletic elegance
A steel case with a universal diameter of 42 mm, a dodecagonal bezel with twelve sides and four screws, a Baumatic movement, and an interchangeable steel strap. The original design is still there, but so is the desire to adapt to our times. The latest addition to the family – the new men’s version of the Riviera – still carries in its genes the silhouette and evocative power of the original 1973 model. It has the shape and spirit of its forbearer. The 2022 version of the Riviera Baumatic is available in a version with a smoky gray sapphire dial and an integrated steel strap. The decoration introduced in 2021 has become the distinctive mark of these models, each of which is equipped with a Baumatic manufacture movement. Its transparency offers a view of the gear trains of the Baumatic caliber and its tried-and-true performance: a five-day power reserve, a daily precision of -4 s / +6 s, and a magnetic resistance of 1500 Gauss, which provides solid protection against magnetic fields. With a power reserve of 120 hours, this new Riviera Baumatic plays in the major leagues. It may be forgotten on a night table from a Thursday evening to a Tuesday morning and still be on time and full of energy. Of course, its scratch-proof sapphire crystal has anti-glare coating on both sides, while its octagonal crown asserts a Phi logo engraving in relief. Not only technically flawless, it seeks to address the expectations of its future owners, seeking excellence, style, comfort and overall cohesion. It embodies the Maison’s vision of men’s watchmaking.
