Baume & Mercier Men's 8749 Hampton Square Titanium Watch

Product Description

The Baume & Mercier Men's Hampton Square Titanium Watch showcases a superior titanium design and a silver-tone subdial for precise timekeeping. Hampton is Baume & Mercier's icon watch and refers to the Hampton's, situated on Long Island, off New York, where the way of life exudes harmony and serenity. Halfway between tradition and modernity, its slightly curved case hugs the wrist perfectly. Hamptons retro-contemporary design makes it a great classic of our time. Constructed with a titanium case, the timepiece includes a square titanium bezel, and a black rubber wristband secured with a push-button-deployment clasp. A scratch-resistant-sapphire window shields the black dial, which features silver-tone Arabic numeral hour markers, slim minute indexes, and luminous watch hands. The dial also includes a subdial at six o'clock and a date calendar at the 12 o'clock position. Featuring Swiss-automatic movement, the timepiece is water resistant to 660 feet (200 M).

An Absolutely Beautiful Watch,
This watch came within a few days of my order, and even though I had seen it in the flesh before purchase, I consider this watch just as beautiful after purchase as it looked in the showroom of the "World's Largest Watch Store" that dare not speak its name. (Yes, the Amazon price beat this unmentionable store by thousands.] I have a number of good looking watches, i.e., Bulgari, Tag, Tissot, but this one is just gorgeous. After wearing it a week or so, it keeps perfect time, feels hefty without being too hefty, and it seems to be of superior quality and workmanship. If you want a sporty/rubber strap timepiece that looks killer worn casually or with a suit, this is your watch.

I just received this item a week ago. I loved the styling and couldnt find another rectangular watch with a rugged feel that compared to this model. I had never seen the watch in the flesh before ordering it, but was very happy with it when it arrived. The size was as expected, quality of workmanship was excellent. The manual was a little sketchy with setting the watch, but after a careful read its pretty straightforward. I will say there are no instructions on how to size the band, its rather intuitive but it would be nice if the manual were to spell it out to allieviate the feeling of "i hope i am correct in cutting the band!" I was concerned with the accuracy of the watch, but i am thrilled to report that it runs about 3 sec a day slow, which is right in line with the performance of my rolex. Overall very satisfied with this watch and with the amazon experience.

Perfect Timing, Perfect Company...
I had carefully examined this watch at Tenshodo in Tokyo where the price, including tax, was \525,000 JPY. I wanted this watch, so I searched out the best price in Tokyo through the internet. The best price I found was through the World Watch Company in Setagaya-ku. Their cash only price, including tax, was \351,750 JPY. I then went to Amazon.com and found the identical watch through Perfect Timing for $2,839.99 USD, plus $59.95 USD for Amazon international shipping charges (Perfect Timing international shipping charges were about half, but for some reason, I could not order directly from them).
This is my third watch from Perfect Timing, so I had confidence in purchasing from them again. One day after I placed my order through Amazon, Perfect Timing e-mailed me to let me know that there may be duties and extra charges associated with this purchase. I confirmed with them that this was okay, and they shipped the next day. The following day, the watch arrived in Tokyo via UPS. Duties and taxes added another \9,100 JPY to the watch making the total price about \323,075 JPY. Comparing this to the best cash only price I could get in Tokyo from WWC, I saved about \28,675 JPY ($259.00 USD), and I added frequent flyer points to my credit card for this purchase. The watch was on my wrist within the same week after making a decision to purchase it at Tenshodo. It does pay to shop around.
My experience with Perfect Timing was once again...PERFECT. Their name is synonymous with their service, and I would highly recommend doing business with this company. For international orders, everything was perfectly packaged, including an international warranty card as well as a six months extension on this warranty offered directly from Perfect Timing.
It should be noted that there were other companies on the Amazon site offering the same watch at a lower price. However, my past experience with Perfect Timing, and that this was an international order, prompted me to pay a bit more to ensure perfect service again.
