Baume & Mercier

Baume & Mercier celebrates the Chinese New Year, which will begin on Tuesday, February 17, 2026. The Year of the Fire Horse this year’s zodiac sign has inspired an exclusive edition of the Clifton collection (Clifton 10839), limited to 100 timepieces, which will become available at the end of November.

Richemont and the Damiani Group, a prestigious, family-run Italian global luxury group, today announce that they have signed an agreement for the Damiani Group to acquire full ownership of specialist watchmaker Baume & Mercier from Richemont in a private transaction.

Baume & Mercier is proud and honored to pay tribute to one of the great masters of modern art. The House takes inspiration from his work as a whole to produce a unique timepiece, an original creation: the Hampton “Hommage à Pierre Soulages.”
