About the Baume & Mercier Capeland Collection
History
The Baume & Mercier Capeland collection takes its name from the chronograph offered by the brand in the 1990s. In the 90s Capeland gained traction and the brand decided to launch it as a collection in 2011.
Features
The Capeland collection inside the Baume & Mercier hangar features chronograph meters on the dial and a date window at the 6 o’clock marker. The chronographs depict a running seconds sub-dial at 3 o’clock and a 30-minute counter at 9. These counters are further complemented by legible index markers. The case is modestly proportionate with a diameter of 42mm and is available in both polished and matte finishes. With adequately sized leaf hands, reading time is easier. Moreover, the hands are equipped with luminescent material for better visibility.
Movement
The Baume & Mercier Capeland collection is fitted with the automatic ETA 2894-2 movement. The Swiss movement offers a decent power reserve of approximately 42 hours vibrating at 28,800 vph.

A saga between innovation and creativity, Capeland from the house of Baume & Mercier is one of the recommendable model for all Swiss Luxury watch lover. Housed in a 44mm steel case, the presence of black and white along with concentric orange circles definitely grab attention. White Arabic numerals are place under the inner circle of a telemeter scale, which is used estimate the approximate distance of a source that produce both light and sounds. The complication is adorned by its flyback chronograph. An automatic movement with 42 hours power reserve ensures uninterrupted power supply as long as it’s in regular use. Brown alligator skin strap adds to the visual delight of your wrist. All complication and the Breguet hands along with black dial are sheltered with a shock resistance sapphire crystal, which can be scratched only by diamond.

Baume et Mercier is a Swiss brand under the Richemont group ( Cartier, Piaget, JLC and other big names ) the brand has rich heritage since its inception in 1830.a supporter of women emancipation , the brand designed watches exclusively for women when no other brands ventured into (1919).now the brand offers 4 series for men and 3 for women.
The model featured here is a Capeland chronograph.the watch is reincarnation of the early 1930 military chronographs designed by leading names such as Longines, Rolex, Omega and Baume itself.
The black dial with the concentric orange circles is a true classic design.the while indexed outer dial is a telemeter function , a range finder with ability to calculate the distance to an object in kms. The flyback chronograph is truly remarkable complication barring the reset time.
the brown strap is a contrast to the black theme maintained to match the inner orange rings. 44 mm is fairly sized.
Overall verdict :watch with an exuberant personality heavily loaded with features,rich history from a renowned brand but priced at Rolex rates. -
