VIDEO: The remarkable bang for buck of the Baume & Mercier Clifton Baumatic Automatic COSC and Day Date Moon Phase

Zach Blass

As a brand, Baume & Mercier presents a lot of benefits to its consumers. They have established themselves as a luxury watch manufacturer that aims to present some of the best builds for the best dollar. It would be fair to say that what Longines represents to the Swatch Group is what Baume & Mercier means within the Richemont group. With the Clifton Baumatic Automatic COSC and Day Date Moon Phase, Baume & Mercier bring undeniable value to the consumer with watches that technically punch far above their price point.

With upgrades such as silicon hairsprings, 120 hours of power reserve, and quick-release style straps and bracelets, it is really hard to find dealbreakers within the specifications of these offerings. The Automatic COSC is a reliable yet elegant daily wearer, perfect for the office, and the Day Date Moon Phase stretches the offering even further with highly desirable complications.

The shaded lacquer dials create an attractive gradient that brings increased depth to the overall aesthetic of each watch, proving that more approachable priced watches do not have to compromise quality and can still compete in today’s marketplace for even the most picky enthusiasts and buyers.
