Baume & Mercier Riviera

Baume & Mercier Riviera Sport-chic born on the Mediterranean coast, since 1973. The Riviera is Baume & Mercier’s boldest and most iconic collection — a watch that dared to be different from the moment it launched in 1973. Inspired by the glamour, freedom, and sun-drenched elegance of the French Riviera, it was one of the original luxury sports watches, arriving just a year after the Royal Oak redefined what a steel watch could be. Its defining feature is the dodecagonal case and bezel — twelve sides, each one symbolising an hour on the dial — a bold geometric statement that remains just as striking today as it was over fifty years ago. Integrated bracelets, wave-textured dials, and a seamless blend of polished and satin-brushed finishing give the Riviera its unmistakable sport-chic personality: equally at home dockside as it is at a dinner table. Over five generations of continuous evolution, the Riviera has grown into one of the most versatile collections in Swiss watchmaking, offering everything from slim three-hand models to sophisticated chronographs, skeleton movements, and complication-rich dress pieces — all anchored by that signature twelve-sided silhouette.
