Mens Baume & Mercier Riviera Automatic Automatic Watch BM0A10660

The Riviera by Baume and Mercier is back again in subtly greyish hues, with a variation on the “Swiss-made” 42 mm automatic Riviera with a steel case and a slate-grey dial on an interchangeable grey rubber strap. The sand-blasted titanium bezel, fastened to the case with four functional screws, brings this contemporary piece a stealthy, driven look. A distinctive look reinforced by a gold-plated PVD ring, which provides luminosity in a perfect juxtaposition of the matte hue of the bezel and strap. There’s no mistaking its sporty pedigree. It is subtly softened by a dial in a beautifully lacquered “slate” hue, highlighted by tone-on-tone “wave” decorations, as well as Roman numerals and indexes.
