New Classima Executives Baume and Mercier Watches for Spring 2010


Baume & Mercier
are about to release two new out sized models from their Classima Executives collection. The Classima Executives Magnum XXL Chronograph with a steel case and the same model again but with a black PVD steel case (pictured here to the left) are the two new 44 mm diameter case watches to join this classic and timeless collection of distinctive timepieces.

Both models have Baume & Mercier’s recently created fluted case in satin-finished and sand-blasted steel, a case that is accentuated by profiled push-pieces; for the black model the steel case is PVD coated. The screw-down case-back allows the watch to be water-resistant to a depth of 200 meters. Both models have a black dial with appliqué rhodium-plated hour-markers that have been coated with Superluminova and have hollowed luminescent hands that allow for perfect readability in the dark.

This new XXL chronograph is driven by a mechanical self-winding movement. A date calendar is situated at 6 o’clock, a minutes sub dial at 3 o’clock, and a small seconds sub dial at 9 o’clock.

As a final touch, the fluted screw-down crown bears the Baume & Mercier logo – the emblematic Phi symbol.

These two outstanding new Classisma Executives Magnum XXL Chronographs will be available next month from authorised dealers of Baume & Mercier watches.
