Details
A Study In Gold And Light
Baume & Mercier has a long history of creating elegant gold watches that function as both timepieces and fine jewelry. This example from the 1990s is a perfect illustration of that philosophy. The entire piece is crafted from solid 14K yellow gold, providing a warm and substantial foundation. This is elevated by a factory-set diamond bezel and lugs, which frame a captivating mother of pearl dial. The result is a watch that plays with light from every angle.
Factory Set, Fully Integrated
The key to this watch's appeal lies in its originality. The diamonds on the bezel and lugs were set by Baume & Mercier at the time of production, a detail that separates it from aftermarket modifications. The dial is a single piece of mother of pearl, giving it an organic iridescence that cannot be replicated. An integrated bracelet design ensures a seamless flow of gold around the wrist, creating the feeling of a single, unified piece of jewelry. Clear hallmarks on the caseback confirm its solid gold construction.
Excellent And Uncompromised
This example is in excellent condition. The 14K yellow gold case and integrated bracelet are well-preserved, showing minimal signs of wear, and the case appears unpolished. The watch presents with a sharpness that reflects careful ownership. The factory-set diamonds are secure, and the mother of pearl dial is clean. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.
Elegant Utility
This is a watch for someone who wants the beauty of a gold bracelet with the practicality of a reliable timepiece. The quartz movement makes it an effortless, grab-and-go accessory that is always ready. It is a statement of classic luxury that works equally well for daily wear or more formal occasions. It combines precious materials and thoughtful design into a piece that feels both substantial and timeless.

What Our Clients Say About Us

I knew I was gonna like Danny, based on his name, but nothing could’ve prepared me for how great of an experience this was. He had the most beautiful 70s Seamaster Cosmic on his website and I was set to be married 2 days later - I arranged to buy it but before leaving we both realized it needed to be serviced. I panicked, because I was literally buying this for my wedding, and Danny being the legend he is, loaned me a nearly identical Seamaster to make sure I could get through the event Never have I had someone go so above and beyond for me, especially while purchasing one of the lesser priced items in their inventory. He serviced my watch and exchanged it with me after the wedding on a super fast turnaround timeline. I would sincerely recommend you visit this guy, you will not be disappointed Edit: adding a pic of the loaner (two tone) and the owner (crosshair)

Great service and shop. Danny and his team were incredibly accommodating, professional, and kind. Great selection of vintage watches. Their store is the hidden gem in the diamond district.

This was my first real luxury watch purchase, a Rolex 15200 Date 34mm, I own Tissots and a Laco, but those are entry level luxury watches. I found Danny’s Vintage Watches online, and had great feedback both on Google, Chrono24 and the Reddit watch community. So decided to give him a shot as buying online can be a crap shoot. Ordered Monday night, was at my doorstep Friday morning. Despite the watch being over 30 years old, serial number says it’s from 91, the watch looked new. Didn’t come with box or papers, and was shipped in a plastic sleeve wrapped in bubble wrap. Danny was always available to answer questions. I’ll be buying from Danny again for the next purchase…saw a couple of Speedmasters on his site I liked….
