When it was reborn in 2021, we rediscovered the Riviera draped in sporty-chic finery, the ideal companion for everyday life as well as for seaside escapades. For its 50th anniversary, it is venturing into new territories of expression.
This time it is underwater that the Riviera embodies the elegance so dear to Baume & Mercier, already familiar with the underwater world since a first Riviera diving model was launched in 1981. While losing nothing of its personality, it is now reinvented as a contemporary queen of the depths with a 42mm steel case, 12-sided unidirectional rotating bezel in polished and sunburst steel, smoked blue sapphire dial with luminescent hands and hour-markers, water-resistant to 300 meters, interchangeable strap or bracelet…
A new lease on life for this Riviera Baumatic 42mm Azur, driven by the Baumatic caliber, which offers no less than five days of power reserve. Sea bathing, sailing, snorkeling or surfing sessions: all that remains is to dive into summer!
The Editorial team was impressed by the unique design of the rotating bezel with a blue lacquered treatment to legibly mark the graduation of the first 15 minutes of diving.
