Baume & Mercier present the new Capeland collection
The new collection will be release inn spring 2012
Baume & Mercier will be launching a new twist to its charismatic collections, the Capeland, a watch that epitomizes seaside living, relaxed lifestyle, authenticity and strength of character.
The Capeland, a long-loved line, is inspired by an historic single push-piece chronograph, circa, 1948. It features a curved case back and “chevé” shaped sapphire crystal reminiscent of early 19th century “galet” pocket watches, but updated with bold distinction. While Capeland has been a much-coveted timepiece, Baume & Mercier nonetheless has found ways to bring the emblematic Capeland watches to even new levels of appeal.
Whereas in the past the steel Capeland emblematic watches had an off-white clear dial, this bold but sleek new piece features a black domed dial with contrasting gilt hands and tachymeter scale. This color combination, along with the light brown alligator with ecru stitching, brings a harmonious, incredibly enhanced look.
Technical details
Reference: CAPELAND 10068
Movement: Manufacture, automatic, (La Joux-Perret 8147-2), 27 jewels
Power reserve: 48 hours
Functions: Flyback chronograph, Tachymeter, Telemeter and Date
Case: Round
Diameter: 44mm
Dial: Black, domed with Arabic numerals and gilt hands, “Breguet” shape
Bracelet: Light brown alligator with pin buckle
Water-resistant: 50 meters or 165 feet

Baume & Mercier: the Hapmton Collection
Launching video and dedicated site
As part of the launch of the new Hapton collection, Baume & Mercier unveiled a video and dedicated site for all aficionados around the world. A collection inspired by a museum piece from the 1940s.
In a completely interactive site, with pictures shot in a ‘mansion’ style interior, the traditional residences of the Hamptons, the featured video and website shines the characteristic light of this region between sea and sky and immerses us in a poetical and mysterious universe. An opportunity to virtually surf around the depths of the collection from its inspirational pieces to each individual timepiece featured.
The Collection allows all of the harmony of the Hamptons to shine through: the rectangular shape of the initial Art Deco timepiece which inspired the collection has been retained; confidence with a satined domed volume on the case at 12 o’clock and 6 o’clock; a generously enhanced curved sapphire crystal; and a curved case side at 3 and 9 o’clock. This is an enchanting journey to the heart of an iconic timepiece helping to better understand its exceptional nature.
