Baume & Mercier showcases its commitment to unparalleled form and function through this understated Classima. It's a watchmaking beauty to instantly fall in love with.
Why we love it
Baume & Mercier Classima can be best defined as the perfect balance between utility and refinement. With bold elements and an unwavering sense of nonchalance, the ever-charming Classima is a timepiece made for those who demand nothing short of perfection. A dress watch, it has been forged to facilitate a seamless transition from desk to drinks.
This Ref. MOA08791 brings the innate character of a Classima under the spotlight — elegant, understated, and reliable. With an appropriately sized 39 mm polished round steel case, this watch features unique versatility – timeless in design, confident in appeal, and a bit bold with the alligator leather straps. These pleasing attributes are reiterated by well-proportioned lugs that give the case a distinctive look, a slender crown, and a neat case back that gives you a peek at the movement.
On the dial, a guilloche pattern at the centre round panel welcomes the wearer, its overall appeal legible and muted. A modern mix of the index and Roman numerals assist in reading the time, the brand logo is placed at the 12 o’clock position, and the date window sitting at 3 o’clock adds a familiar charm. The contrasting blue-hued hands inject a pop of colour on the otherwise toned-down style.
This Baume & Mercier Classima MOA08791, powered by an automatic movement, will elevate all your nine-to-five edits with effortless style.
Overall, this Baume & Mercier MOA08791 is in very good condition with a fine finish throughout and a well-preserved leather strap that is a little soiled. There are some negligible scratches on the back.
Provenance
At Second Movement, the pre-owned division of Ethos Watches, we adhere to a rigorous verification process where expert watchmakers carefully inspect every watch to certify its authenticity, ensuring it is not counterfeit. We also go to the maximum extent possible to ensure that the timepiece is not a stolen property and that all duties are paid. However, in the absence of any central database, a 100% verification is unlikely for any pre-owned entity in India. Nevertheless, we can still provide a provenance guarantee for watches purchased from Ethos.
Please note all our transactions with sellers are conducted via registered banking channels, accompanied by a signed affidavit, banking proof, and PAN card.
A specific affidavit stating the watch is not a stolen property and that all applicable duties have been paid is also obtained from the seller and is available for buyers in case of legal requirements.
We strive to build trust through transparency and diligence, outlining our verification process and the inherent limitations. Our commitment to integrity shapes every transaction, prioritising your confidence while acknowledging the realities of the pre-owned watch market.
