Product Description:

One of the most popular models created by Baume & Mercier, the Hampton Classic quartz chronograph watch for men (model 8130) is a fitting addition to your timepiece collection. A fashionable statement as well as a precise timepiece, it's a worthy complement to your daily professional couture as well as a shining accent to nights on the town. Made of high grade stainless steel, the tall, rectangular watch case measures a slim 28.5mm wide (1.12 inches) and it's topped by a mirror-polished bezel. The white dial is supplemented by three silver chronograph subdials (30-minute and 12-hour register as well as small seconds). It also features thin silver hands (with seconds hand) and a date window at 4 o'clock. It's completed by a genuine ostrich leather strap in black. Other features include a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and water resistance to 50 meters (165 feet)--suitable for swimming. This watch comes with a certificate of authenticity.

The dial is stamped with Baume & Mercier's signature Greek letter Phi (Φ), which symbolizes the harmonious lines and a perfect balance in design that the company constantly strives for. It's long been used to denote the golden number, or ratio, which suggests a natural balance between symmetry and asymmetry.

About Baume & Mercier
Baume & Mercier has a rich history in storied tradition of Swiss watchmaking, now over 170 years. In 1830, brothers Louis Victor and Pierre-Joseph-Celestin Baume established the Baume Freres Watch firm in the Swiss Jura region--the heart of the Swiss watch industry. As business flourished in Europe a grandson of the founder, William Baume met Paul Mercier, a great lover of the arts and in 1918 they created a business partnership. The contrast of the rigorous, precise Baume with the artistic, free thinking Mercier fused form and function to create the traditions of perfection, quality, and luxury that still exist today.
