W/Box Baume & Mercier 24 x 26 mm 18K Yellow Gold Manual Deep Brown Watch 38264
| More Information |
| The Baume & Mercier Ref. 38264 is a refined vintage ladies’ cocktail watch that reflects the Maison’s elegant and jewelry-oriented approach to watchmaking during this period. This particular example is distinguished by its unusual deep brown lacquer dial, whose rich glossy surface and subtle tonal variations give the watch considerably more depth than a conventional painted dial. Completely free of hour markers, the minimalist composition allows the lacquer finish itself to become the central decorative element, complemented only by the Baume & Mercier Genève signature and elegant dauphine-style hands. The softly rounded 18k yellow-gold cushion case provides a warm frame for the dark brown dial, creating a particularly sophisticated contrast with the black leather strap. From a watchmaker’s perspective, the simplicity of the two-hand display beautifully suits the compact hand-wound mechanical construction and restrained proportions of the watch. Vintage lacquer dials are especially attractive when their original surface and characteristic depth have been preserved, as the finish plays such an important role in the personality of the piece. With its brown lacquer dial, marker-free design, 18k yellow-gold case and classic cocktail-watch proportions, this Ref. 38264 is a distinctive expression of vintage Baume & Mercier design. |
