The Classima Executives XXL Chronograph and Complete Calendar is part of the Baume & Mercier's brand new 2010 release. As the name suggests, the watch is very versatile thanks to the ETA 7751 movement. It provides complete calendar that includes day, date, month and moon phase indicator aside from the chronograph functions and the time. I can not deny that it is a nice looking watch, but it looks quite similar to a watch model by the brand's big competitor Longines.
The 42mm case, made of stainless steel, is very classic and has fine finishes. But it has little personality itself.The dial features nice guilloche finish in the center. And to save the dial from being too busy, Baume & Mercier replaces numerals with black stick markers. And gray hands are applied to create a Tuxedo look. And the rose gold date hand and the moon phase indicator adds a subtle touch of luxury. The watch comes with sapphire crystal at front and the rear. The case-back reveals a Baume & Mercier signed automatic rotor, an oscillating weight adorned with "Côtes de Genève", as well as circular-grained bridges and blued steel screws. The crown proudly bears the Phi symbol.
And this watch requires 5 adjustments per year to account for the March, May, July, October and December that have not full 31 days. If you are in the market for a a perpetual calendar of lower price tag, this Baume & Mercier is not a half bad choice. You know high end watches with perpetual calendars normally go for $10,000-$100,000.
