Riviera 10715 Watch

The Watch

For nearly a century, Baume & Mercier watches have embodied the tradition and refined restraint that define the Maison. They celebrate its watchmaking excellence through bold designs and the finest materials. A cornerstone of the watchmaking world, each piece combines exceptional reliability and precision. The Riviera collection stands as a perfect testament - a line that has always claimed timeless elegance. To mark its 50th anniversary, Baume & Mercier reimagined it in more sophisticated, cutting-edge versions. This Riviera 10715 stays true to its heritage with a dodecagonal case crafted in stainless steel, measuring 39 mm in diameter. Its polished and satin-brushed finish strikes a sleek, understated balance perfectly suited to discerning men. The iconic 12-sided dodecagonal bezel is secured to the case with four screws, harmonizing with the case tone for a striking result. It frames the sapphire crystal that shields the dial from everyday shocks. On the right side, the traditional crown features a black ribbon for adjusting the central indicators. On the caseback, a transparent screw-down case back ensures a perfect 30 ATM water resistance.

The Dial

The round dial of this timepiece blends sharp style with features you'll love. Exquisitely refined, it showcases a dark gray hue that signals its prestige and amplifies its distinctive character. Elevated by a smoked finish, it reveals the heart of the movement - a truly striking view. The two dauphine hands complement the dark tone with their silver coloring. They sweep across indices that alternate between Roman numerals and batons to mark the hours and minutes. A slender silver seconds hand completes the ensemble. All time markers feature Superluminova C1 luminescent treatment for legibility even in complete darkness. An Arabic numeral track runs along the outer edge alongside a subtle minute railway. This sequence, numbered 1 to 31, indicates the current date, highlighted as it advances. Finally, the brand signs its name beneath the 12 o'clock index and notes the collection above 6 o'clock.

The Movement

At the heart of this exceptional timepiece beats an automatic movement manufactured by Baume & Mercier. The BM13-1957A caliber features 21 jewels and beats at 28,800 vph. Highly performant, it precisely drives the hands and date window for a flawlessly accurate analog display. It also delivers a 120-hour power reserve.

The Strap

Featuring three rows of links, this bracelet commands attention with its polished look and sophisticated profile. Crafted in steel with a polished and satin-brushed finish, it carries a stunning silver tone that pairs effortlessly with any outfit. Modern and undeniably sleek, it complements city looks, while its deployant clasp ensures a secure and comfortable fit around the wrist.

Water Resistance

With 100-meter water resistance - that's 10 ATM in watchmaking terms - this bold timepiece handles both black-tie events and water activities with ease. Feel free to wear it in the shower, the bath, or while swimming (even during vigorous laps). That said, our watch experts want to be clear: this model is not designed for scuba diving, freediving, or high-pressure water jets. Remember: shower, bath, and swimming only - and never operate the pushers or crown while the watch is wet.
