New watch day today! I'm totally impressed with the B&M Baumatic line. When they were introduced in 2018, my antenna went up, and I knew it was only a matter of time before I had to get one. It comes with a Richmont in-house movement with a 5 day power reserve, and it's still a fairly thin watch at 11 mm. After seeing the watch and movement do well for more than a year, I decided to take the plunge.

This one is my second bite at the Baume apple, so to speak. I got the standard version of this watch with a black dial late last year, and as much as I liked that one, I was itching for the COSC version with the blue dial that fades to black at the edges. I sold the black dial and got this one, and I am LOVING it.

40mm case, 20mm lugs, and a see-through case back. It's elegant, and the dial color fade makes it fun.

Nice! My first nice watch was a B&M Hampton.

Congrats, OP, that watch has been on my radar too!
