Baume & Mercier Riviera Baumatic Automatic 42 mm Smoky Blue Dial Date (10701)

Where mechanical mastery meets refined sport-elegance.

The Baume & Mercier Riviera Baumatic Automatic 10701 offers a compelling blend of avant-design and in-house horological performance. The 42 mm stainless-steel case in the iconic dodecagonal Riviera silhouette delivers confident wrist presence, elegantly balanced by the refined combination of satin-brushed and polished finishes. A subtle yet technical detail: the case side includes a blue-anodised aluminum ring and crown thread, which echo the deep smoky blue sapphire dial and add a layer of purposeful design.

What truly sets this model apart is its eye-catching dial: featuring a sapphire crystal with mesh décor, this semi-transparent surface allows glimpses of the in-house calibre beneath while maintaining clarity and style. The applied indices and open-worked hands hover above the textured mesh pattern, and the date aperture at 3 o’clock adds everyday utility without compromising the visual depth. The central seconds hand is tipped with the brand’s Phi symbol, adding a signature horological touch.

Beneath the dial resides the celebrated Baumatic in-house automatic movement, offering a robust 120-hour (5-day) power reserve, enhanced resistance to magnetic fields, and exceptional reliability — hallmarks of serious Swiss watchmaking. The transparent sapphire case-back further reinforces its mechanical credentials, granting a window to the finely finished rotor and movement architecture.

The blue rubber strap, refined with a canvas-effect pattern and a tool-free quick-change system, perfectly complements the sport-elegant aesthetic while enhancing wear-comfort and adaptability. With a water-resistance rating of 100 m (10 ATM), the Riviera Baumatic 10701 is built for both refined daily wear and active environments.

In sum, this timepiece stands as a refined statement of innovation and heritage—designed for the modern man who values engineered excellence, bold design and effortless versatility.
