Clifton Baumatic

As good-looking as it may be, the most exciting part of this watch is on the inside, namely the new Baumatic calibre. Five years in the making, Baume & Mercier developed the technology for this automatic movement with Manufacture Horlogère ValFleurier and Richemont's Research & Innovation team. It rolls out the very latest in watchmaking technology at an unbeatable price. Escapement and balance spring are both in silicon. It withstands magnetic fields of 1,500 Gauss, and provides five days of power reserve. Both its design and the use of new types of oil, capable of withstanding even major variations in temperature, make this one of the most reliable and rugged movements on the market today, with the result that service intervals are extended beyond the usual five years.
