Any thoughts on baume et mercier as a brand? Actually on vacation in Jamaica and there's an authorized retailer who has the Clifton baumatic which looks pretty amazing and it's duty free 😎

I believe there is some love for the Clifton but grey market these go for 30% or more off

My brother has a Clifton baumatic and I think it's an awesome value. Many on here will likely detract, calling it a "mall watch brand", but the baumatic is an in-house movement from a well established Richemont group brand

I really like the way that looks

My dad rocks a Baume Clifton and loves it. Classy piece

Cool watch, but duty free isn’t really a thing in watches. No sin tax like booze and alcohol…unless I guess if you’re in a country with VAT

And the duty just refers to the country of purchase. You still have to declare it when entering the US.
