It is a brand capable of continuous growth and innovation, even without considering its own history of success. Especially in recent years, the brand&#8217;s perception has grown, in fact, mainly because, with some of its identity collections, it has been able to keep up with the times thanks to the introduction of new designs and new technologies. The&nbsp;<strong>Clifton Baumatic Moon Phase and Date<\/strong>, the star of our exclusive photo shoot, is an excellent illustration of this approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_04.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_04-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Baume &amp; Mercier Clifton Automatic, Moon Phase, Date\" class=\"wp-image-22224\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_04-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_04-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_04-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_04-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_04-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_04.jpg 1772w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The first great plus of this watch is the fact that it bears the word&nbsp;<strong>Baumatic&nbsp;<\/strong>in its name. Which, in the case of Baume &amp; Mercier, began by designating a family of calibres which would then almost immediately get to designate a collection. And it is not just any calibre, but the first in-house movement created by the brand. A market debut that dates back to SIHH 2018, with the first time-only piece animated by a mechanism that, in terms of research, development and characteristics, has few equals in the price range in which the brand positions itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_21.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_21-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Baume &amp; Mercier Clifton Automatic, Moon Phase, Date\" class=\"wp-image-22229\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_21-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_21-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_21-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_21-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_21-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_21.jpg 1772w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Clifton Baumatic Moon Phase and Date can in fact rely on the Baumatic technology developed by Baume &amp; Mercier engineers together with the Richemont Group&#8217;s Research and Innovation department. A decisive contribution was brought by&nbsp;<strong>Manufacture Horlog\u00e8re ValFleurier<\/strong>, which also belongs to Richemont and produces movements and components for all the Swiss group&#8217;s brands.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>THE BAUMATIC CALIBRE<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Baumatic movement has several assets, which relate to the four pillars on which it was founded: resistance to magnetic fields, precision, autonomy and reliability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A timepiece equipped with the<strong> Baumatic calibre BM13-1975A<\/strong> is resistant to at least 1,500 gauss, far more than the 60 gauss required by the NIHS 90-10 standard. This is thanks to the use of non-ferromagnetic elements for the two particularly sensitive components of the movement, the regulating organ (including the balance spring) and the escapement system. The watch is virtually unaffected by the magnetic fields we come across in everyday life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_10.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_10-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Baume &amp; Mercier Clifton Automatic, Moon Phase, Date\" class=\"wp-image-22227\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_10-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_10-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_10-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_10-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_10-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_10.jpg 1772w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As far as precision is concerned, the Baume &amp; Mercier calibre guarantees high performance throughout the entire duration of the power reserve.\u00a0The movement has a <strong>power reserve of 120 hours<\/strong>, which is three times that of a standard watch. This is also thanks to the barrel size optimised with a spring made of &#8216;NIVAFLEX+&#8217;, combined with the new high-performance escapement system with Powerscape technology. The fully optimised design improves torque transmission, reduces friction-related energy loss, and guarantees a longer power reserve than a standard calibre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_12.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"682\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_12-682x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Baume &amp; Mercier Clifton Automatic, Moon Phase, Date\" class=\"wp-image-22238\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_12-682x1024.jpg 682w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_12-600x900.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_12-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_12-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_12-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_12.jpg 1181w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 682px) 100vw, 682px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_16.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"682\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_16-682x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Baume &amp; Mercier Clifton Automatic, Moon Phase, Date\" class=\"wp-image-22239\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_16-682x1024.jpg 682w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_16-600x900.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_16-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_16-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_16-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_16.jpg 1181w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 682px) 100vw, 682px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In terms of reliability, the breakthrough was made possible by the use of new lubricants, specially developed to optimise the long-life lubrication of all key functions. Tests carried out in the Richemont laboratories covered each key function with new procedures and new test benches. The tests showed that a interval longer than the usual recommended 5 years can elapse between maintenance, thanks to new lubricant formulations adapted to fulfil their long-life mission even under severe stress. Tests have successfully simulated 10 years of operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>THE FINELY CRAFTED AESTHETICS OF BAUME &amp; MERCIER<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is the technical pillar on which the Baumatic family was born, so as the Clifton collection consisting of several references. One of the most fascinating is the one captured by the lenses of Watch Insanity, the&nbsp;<strong>Clifton Baumatic Moon Phase and Date<\/strong>. A watch in which Baume &amp; Mercier has combined the Baumatic BM14 calibre with the day-date and moon-phase complications. Not a trivial operation, because the dial has been redesigned to make the information legible and clear, without sacrificing aesthetic balance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_01.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_01-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Baume &amp; Mercier Clifton Automatic, Moon Phase, Date\" class=\"wp-image-22228\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_01-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_01-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_01-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_01-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_01-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_01.jpg 1772w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The beauty of the&nbsp;<strong>lacquered dial&nbsp;<\/strong>also lies in the choice of the colours, in this case a faded blue that turns black from the centre to the edges. It also comes in green and grey versions, but in our opinion the blue one is the most striking. As mentioned, the colour gets darker towards the outside, a degrad\u00e9 that draws the beholder&#8217;s eye to the minute circle and the applied rhodium-plated hour markers. Their elongated shape makes the reading of time even clearer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_02.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_02-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Baume &amp; Mercier Clifton Automatic, Moon Phase, Date\" class=\"wp-image-22231\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_02-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_02-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_02-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_02-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_02-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_02.jpg 1772w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most substantial part of the dial is developed along a double axis, vertically and horizontally symmetric. The horizontal one brings balance the&nbsp;<strong>Baume &amp; Mercier&nbsp;<\/strong>logo at 9 o&#8217;clock with the \u2018Baumatic 5 Days\u2019 inscription at 3 o&#8217;clock. It is therefore an axis reserved for the signatures that characterise the timepiece. Axis 12-6, on the other hand, is the most important, as it is dedicated to the indications that makes this watch special: the date and moon phase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_03.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_03-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Baume &amp; Mercier Clifton Automatic, Moon Phase, Date\" class=\"wp-image-22230\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_03-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_03-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_03-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_03-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_03-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_03.jpg 1772w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the date, Baume &amp; Mercier has chosen to separate the information.

Within the Clifton Baumatic collection, there is in fact a reference with moon phases and a crown date display, without the week day indication. On it, the moon phases are displayed through the classic bilobed window showing the motion of the moon disc against the starry sky. On the Clifton Baumatic Moon Phase and Date, in addition to the starry sky in the background, the moon phases in the round window are embellished with a smoky grey sapphire crystal that discreetly blurs the new moon without hiding it. A solution that creates a beautiful aesthetic effect and which, in our opinion, raises the perceived quality of the watch considerably.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>FINEST FINISH AND ATTRACTIVE PRICE<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Baume &amp; Mercier was able to make all this fit inside a&nbsp;<strong>case&nbsp;<\/strong>ofclassic dimensions for this type of watch, 42 mm in diameter by just over 13 mm thick. A size perhaps not for all wrists but which, for a moon phase and date watch, is the minimum diameter to maintain legibility without overcrowding the dial. As for the star of our photo shoot, its case is made of&nbsp;<strong>polished steel<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 but a version of the Clifton Baumatic Moon Phase and Date is also available with an 18-carat rose gold case combined with a smoky grey dial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_06.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_06-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Baume &amp; Mercier Clifton Automatic, Moon Phase, Date\" class=\"wp-image-22234\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_06-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_06-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_06-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_06-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_06-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Baume_Merier_Clifton_10593_Watch_Insanity_06.jpg 1772w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The strap is made of black alligator leather, while another version of the watch also comes with an elegant five-row steel&nbsp;<strong>bracelet.<\/strong>&nbsp;Both the strap and the bracelet have a folding clasp and a quick release system that allow for interchangeability without the need of using tools or the intervention of a watchmaker.
