Introducing Baume & Mercier Unveils The Riviera Acier-Titane 10769

A robust and sporty timepiece with blue aesthetics

The Riviera is among Baume & Mercier's most iconic collections. Launched in 1973, the Riviera is known for its unique twelve-sided bezel and robust, stylish design, combining 70s elegance with modern aesthetics. Following the limited edition Riviera Perpetual Calendar, the brand introduces the Riviera Acier-Titane, featuring a blue dial that mirrors the depth of the sea.

The watch features a bi-color case made of sandblasted steel with a blue PVD coating, measuring 42 mm in diameter and 10.66 mm in thickness. Its name, “Acier-Titane,” is French for “Steel-Titanium,” indicating the beautiful mix of materials used in this watch. It comes with a sandblasted titanium dodecagonal bezel that is gray PVD treated, secured by four sandblasted steel screws, and linked to the caseband by a gold-tone PVD steel ring.

The dial showcases a smoky blue decorated sapphire disk that reveals glimpses of the date wheel that is indicated at 3 o’clock and some movement components at the center. It also features gold-colored hour and minute hands, along with indices and Roman numerals at 12 and 6 o'clock, all coated with white Super-LumiNova that emits a blue glow in low light.

The watch is powered by the BM13-1975A Caliber, a COSC-certified automatic movement that operates at 28,800 vph (4Hz) and offers 5 days (120 hours) of power reserve. It features a Côtes de Genève pattern on the rotor and perlage decoration on the movement. The watch comes with a blue rubber strap with a steel triple folding buckle and is priced at AED 17,600.
