Founded in the 19th century, the maison earned its reputation in the old way: through accuracy, design and quality that matters. That pedigree is precisely why Cartier; that curator of taste, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eeventually acquired them as a supplier of substance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eAnd today, Cartier‑signed Baume \u0026amp; Mercier pieces have their own gravity: scarce and astonishingly well made. The market has noticed. Last year in Monaco, a very similar but Cartier-retailed Baume Ref. 32001, with the same Cal. BM550 movements as ours, detonated the €10,000 high estimate, landing at €104,000. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e( We will, in due course, showcase an even rarer Cartier-signed version; which we believe is the finest example shown anywhere. )\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eBut until then, consider this. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eTwo manual 17-jewel Cal BM550 movements. A dial split into dual colored faces. Gilt pointed baton hands. An unpolished curved rectangular case with a snap-on back. This is a watch that doesn’t need you to pretend you live in one place.
