Baume & Mercier Hampton

With their rectangular case and classic dial design, the Hampton timepieces from Baume & Mercier immediately catch the eye. They combine clear lines with fashionable, playful elements and are therefore aimed at watch enthusiasts with an eye for something special in the tried and tested.

From delicate to colorful: the Baume & Mercier Hampton collection

Elegant, classic and multifaceted: this is how the Baume & Mercier Hampton collection could be described in three words. The slim watches in stainless steel, rose gold or titanium cases are available in numerous designs, with the focus sometimes on timeless elegance and sometimes on colorful extravagance.

The models on a metal bracelet with large links or in the Milanaise style cater to the tastes of watch wearers who want a watch with a truly graceful look and a touch of modern zeitgeist. If you want to emphasize the unmistakably luxurious look of the watches, you can opt for a reference with a diamond setting or a model with a mother-of-pearl dial. If, on the other hand, you want to wear the Hampton mainly for a casual everyday look, the no-frills versions on a leather strap are an obvious choice.

Speaking of leather straps: some references of the Hampton come on a colorful leather strap, the shade of which - either deep blue or burgundy red - is reflected in the dial. These special models do without indices and therefore appear particularly “clean” on the one hand, but also have a playful, almost mystical aura thanks to the glitter lacquer on the dial.

Quartz or automatic: the heart of Hampton luxury watches

The Hampton collection has several facets, not only in terms of appearance, but also in terms of the movement. While some models are powered by an accurate quartz movement, others are equipped with an automatic movement with a 38-hour power reserve. Which drive the watch fan chooses is first and foremost a question of type, as all Hampton timepieces work precisely and reliably.

When it comes to complications, most Hampton watches for him and her are reserved. The majority of the collection is limited to displaying hours and minutes. However, the product line also includes more complicated versions, some of which feature small seconds, a date display and a day/night indicator. The additional functional elements fit seamlessly into the dial of these references and give the watches a more practical and technical touch.

Baume & Mercier Hampton: a watch with rough edges

The main feature that immediately strikes the observer when looking at the Hampton is certainly the rectangular shape of the housing, which, compared to the circular design, creates an image that is less familiar to the eye. This shape allows the Hampton to always appear slim and delicate, regardless of its dimensions. The range of available sizes extends from a dainty 35 x 22 millimetres to a proud 48 x 31 millimetres, allowing the timepiece to fit snugly on delicate women's and wider men's wrists. This makes the timelessly chic luxury watch a real all-rounder that accompanies him and her stylishly through everyday life, to the office and to special occasions.
