Baume & Mercier Riviera "Coastline" – 33mm

The Riviera has never forgotten women. Far from it. In 2022, several versions join the women’s collection, including the “Swiss-made” self-winding “Coastline” model in a 33-mm diameter. In its steel case, this almost cheeky Riviera asserts a particularly unique design with a gradated midnight blue lacquer dial set with 63 diamonds. The diamonds portray the seaboard of the French Riviera, beckoning to an adventure from Monaco to Saint Tropez. The asymmetry introduced by this gem-setting, which could be described as topographic – an effect made possible through the combination of precious stones in seven different sizes –, is a first for the Riviera collection. Indeed, it is a first for this Maison, which continues to push back the lines of the design and bold spirit that have made it world famous. Like a sparkling summer wave, the exclusive gem-setting extends to a portion of the bezel, case and integrated steel strap. This design is unafraid to venture into the unexpected. That’s the Riviera spirit!
