Fine watchmaker Baume & Mercier has launched a new chapter in its range of mens’ Hampton watches, a beautifully crafted Hampton 10026. In keeping with Baume & Mercier’s spirit, the silver dial's art deco inspired design appears very traditional and in many ways conservative. But the 10026 includes quietly assertive accents, such as blue refined sword hands and a small seconds hand displayed at 6 o’clock. Not only do these features add a sense of modern aesthetic elegance, they also facilitate precise time reading through their subtle contrast to the two-toned silver dial palette.
The stainless steel case is a generous size at 32x45mm and its exquisite curved lines integrate perfectly into the sturdy yet incredibly comfortable black alligator strap. In fitting with the shape of the case, the sapphire crystal glass is curved. This subtle design feature places quiet emphasis on the watch face and means that whatever angle you view this watch from, it exudes luxury and evokes feelings of good living. The strap is safely secured by a triple folding clasp which moulds to the shape of your wrist to provide a feeling of real authenticity.
As with all Swiss watches, functionality is of upmost importance to Baume & Mercier and this watch is no exception. Beneath its pleasing exterior is an extremely accurate automatic ETA 2895 movement. The minutes hand and 3 o’clock date display are easily adjustable using the screw-locked crown on the right hand side of the case. Each piece comes with a decorated numbered case back providing the owner with an individual timepiece with which they can mark those moments in life which must be remembered.
