While we were at Watches & Wonders in Hong Kong in September 2015, we caught up with Mr Jean Conrié, Country Manager of Baume & Mercier Australia and New Zealand and we couldn’t help but notice the dress watch with distinctive central moonphase on his wrist. Turns out it’s from the new Classima collection (reference 10219 for those playing at home). So we took the opportunity to get Jean’s firsthand thoughts on this clean and elegant 40mm piece. Baume & Mercier have designed the Classima to be the perfect first ‘good watch’, and everything about it, from the dressy dial to the solid construction and robust quartz movement, down to the solid case back, perfect for a personalised engraving echoes that intention.
