| The story of Baume & Mercier house of watch-making began in 1830 when brothers Louis Victor and Pierre-Joseph Célestin Baume of Les Bois, Switzerland manifested that: "Accept only perfection, only manufacture watches of the highest quality." Ever since, this creed of perfection and quality has been the hallmark of every Baume & Mercier creation which has added chapter after chapter of success to Swiss horology in the shape and size of timeless timepieces. The Baume Brothers made rapid progress over the years and touched the heights of glory in 1892 by winning the chronometry competition with a record number of marks for that time. In 1920, when William Baume; the grandson of the founder and the erudite Paul Mercier joined their talents together to form Baume & Mercier in Genève, they revolutionized the art of watch making through their unorthodox approach, daring experimentation and ingenious craftsmanship. The decades old Baume & Mercier precision is not a fluke instead a testament to their sheer imagination and scientific accuracy which ensures that today their towering superiority in the watch-making industry remains unchallenged.
