Baume & Mercier Clifton Collection

Marina Milojević | 11.22.12 | 03:59 AM

Baume & Mercier is preparing to launch a brand new collection next year. The upcoming Clifton collection is inspired by the historical models from the golden fifties.

The Clifton collection will be officially presented at the upcoming SIHH 2013 exhibition, but there's already some information about the new Baume & Mercier timepieces.

The press release from the brand presents us with the new hand-wound Clifton 1830 piece in 18-carat red gold, simple and refined, designed for all those who appreciate elegance. The brand has also launched a special microsite designed for all those who wish to discover the new Clifton watch collection for men. In addition to the Clifton 1830 piece in 18-carat red gold, here I discovered seven new references and three additional variants - a 43mm small seconds model, an 34mm complete calendar, and a bit smaller 39mm variant with three hands and date indication.

The Clifton 1830, ref M0A10060, arrives in a round case with 42mm in diameter, fitted with a silvered opaline dial. There is a small seconds counter at 6 o'clock and applied golden numerals and indices. Inside of the 18-carat red gold case beats an in-house caliber ref 7381, adapted for Baume & Mercier by the La Joux-Perret Manufacture. The movement is endowed with 90 hours of power reserve and it is visible through the transparent case back. The movement beats at 21,600 vibrations per hour and it is sealed against the ingress of water to 50 meters.
