ABOUT THE WATCHMAKER: BAUME & MERCIER

While many Swiss watchmakers built their reputation on technical innovation, Baume & Mercier became known for something else: design. Throughout the 20th century, the brand developed a reputation for creating elegant, unconventional watches that reflected the style of their era rather than chasing trends.

By the 1970s and 1980s, Baume & Mercier was producing some of the most distinctive dress watches in Switzerland—experimenting with unusual case shapes, bold textures, and luxurious materials. Pieces like this alligator-dial model are a reminder of a time when Swiss watchmakers were willing to take risks, resulting in watches that feel every bit as unique today as they did decades ago.

Alfré's Vintage Watches

If Alfré wore a watch, it wouldn't be quiet.

Our vintage collection is inspired by the confidence of the 1980s and the elegance of Art Deco design—gold tones, distinctive shapes, and pieces with a little more personality than what's being made today. These are watches for long lunches, late nights, weekend escapes, and moments worth dressing up for.

Every watch is hand-selected by Le Alfré for its character, condition, and ability to make an outfit feel complete. No mass production. No repeats. Just great watches with stories left to tell.
