Hello, WatchDNA family! Today, we’re diving into Baume & Mercier’s Riviera Collection—a blend of heritage craftsmanship, modern innovation, and versatile style. Whether you’re drawn to bold contrasts, vintage charm, or sleek functionality, there’s a Riviera watch for every personality. Let’s explore these five stunning models, each with its own story to tell!
1. Riviera 10829: Harmony in Black & White
Confident Style, Effortless Precision
The Riviera 10829 is a celebration of balance. Its wave-decorated white dial, accented with bold black details, radiates modern sophistication. Powered by an automatic movement and featuring an interchangeable bracelet, this watch adapts seamlessly from boardroom meetings to weekend adventures.
Why We Love It:
-
Timeless Contrast: The black-and-white dial embodies harmony, mirroring Baume & Mercier’s 200-year legacy of blending tradition with innovation.
- Swiss Craftsmanship: Automatic movement ensures precision, while the interchangeable strap system offers endless styling possibilities.
Perfect for the family member who values classic elegance with a contemporary edge.
2. Riviera 10828 Flyback Chronograph: A Nod to History
Limited Edition Legacy
Only 73 pieces exist of the Riviera 10828, commemorating the Riviera line’s debut in 1973. This flyback chronograph boasts a luminous gold dial, telemeter, and tachymeter scales—a vintage-inspired design with modern functionality.
Key Features:
-
Flyback Function: Reset and restart the chronograph with a single click, ideal for timing life’s fast-paced moments.
- Heritage Details: Brushed vertical gold dial with Superluminova accents bridges past and present.
A must-have for the history buff or collector in your family.
3. Riviera 10822: Vintage Soul, Modern Power
5-Day Power Reserve, Timeless Design. The Riviera 10822 marries vintage charm with cutting-edge innovation. Its gilded vertical brushed dial and dodecagonal case pay homage to Baume & Mercier’s heritage, while the in-house Baumatic movement delivers a remarkable 5-day power reserve.
Why It Stands Out:
-
Manufacture Movement: Exceptional accuracy and anti-magnetism for daily reliability.
- Interchangeable Bracelet: Swap from steel to leather to match your mood or occasion.
Ideal for the family member who appreciates tradition but thrives in the modern world.
4. Riviera 10825 & 10826: Choose Your Boldness
Black or Blue? Your Call!
Two watches, two personalities—the Riviera 10825 and 10826 offer the same Swiss precision and day-date chronograph function but in strikingly different hues.
Riviera 10825 (Black Dial):
-
Bold Contrast: Black dial with crisp white accents and a 41mm stainless steel case.
- Versatility: Pair it with a leather strap for formal events or steel for everyday flair.
Riviera 10826 (Blue Dial):
-
Captivating Depth: Vibrant blue dial that shifts tones in the light, perfect for making a statement.
-
Adaptable Style: Interchangeable strap system lets you switch from adventurous to refined in seconds.
Whether you lean toward timeless black or daring blue, these watches are for the rule-breakers and trendsetters in your family.
