BAUME & MERCIER "Hampton" Watch in Stainless Steel and Leather

Inspired by the Art Deco movement, the Hampton collection is one of Baume & Mercier’s most iconic signatures. With its elegant rectangular case, perfectly balanced lines, and timeless refinement, it embodies a different vision of sports watchmaking, where elegance always takes precedence over ostentation. This Chronograph version adds an extra technical dimension while retaining the collection’s unique charm.

This model, reference 65698, captivates with its harmonious 34.5 mm proportions and its meticulously finished stainless steel case, complemented by a stainless steel bezel. Its rectangular design gives it an instantly recognizable personality, a far cry from traditional round-cased chronographs. Protected by a Sapphire crystal, its silver dial with Arabic numerals underscores its elegance while ensuring excellent readability. Both distinguished and original, this watch catches the eye without ever being over the top.

The perfectly structured dial elegantly accommodates the chronograph functions as well as a date window. The balance of the various sub-dials, the quality of the display, and the attention to even the smallest details are a testament to Baume & Mercier’s watchmaking expertise. This watch boasts a style that complements both formal attire and everyday wear with great ease.

Its automatic movement delivers all the pleasure of fine mechanical watchmaking. The smooth operation of the chronograph, the precision of the movement, and the sophistication of a watch that lives in sync with its owner offer an experience that only connoisseurs of mechanical watchmaking can fully appreciate.

This Hampton is fitted with a non-original green leather Bracelet, which perfectly complements its elegant aesthetic, as well as its original Baume & Mercier double-fold steel deployant clasp, ensuring excellent comfort while preserving the piece’s authenticity.

Presented in excellent condition, this watch was serviced in-house on June 24, 2026, and comes with a 1-year Warranty to ensure complete peace of mind for its future owner.

The Hampton chronographs hold a special place in Baume & Mercier’s recent history. Their timeless design, relatively limited production run, and remarkable quality today appeal to enthusiasts seeking a watch that stands apart from the great Swiss classics.

Elegant, mechanical, and full of personality, this Hampton Chronograph offers a superb opportunity to acquire a watch with character, combining the elegance of Art Deco with the sophistication of a genuine Swiss automatic chronograph.
