This new William Baume collection is crafted to commemorate time and its measurement, and also putting back the tradition of Baume and Mercier Swiss watches which originated way back 1830.The collection comprises of three Haute Horlogerie models, which are the William Baume Tourbillon, William Baume Ultra-thin, and William Baume Retrograde. All of which are in rose gold case and gray guilloche dials with alligator straps.The William Baume Tourbillon is the first tourbillion watch by Baume and Mercier. Its rose gold case is of 43mm in diameter to fit the tourbillion carriage in a gold-framed aperture at 9 o'clock. A separate small seconds sub dial is also positioned at 6 o'clock.On the other hand, the William Baume Ultra-Thin measures 41mm x 5.8mm with a manual-wind movement of just 2mm thick. Ultra-thin watches are known to be of elegant style that best suits the women's wrist and giving them sophisticated look.Lastly, the William Baume Retrograde has a 41mm case which divides its seconds display into two. It has a big date on a double window at 12 o'clock and the retrograde seconds on a graduated arc of circle that is displayed at 6 o'clock, which also features a snake-like hand.If you think one of this William Baume Collection fits you, then go purchase one now as everything comes in limited edition pieces of 178, except for the tourbillion with only 10 timepieces produced.
