Baume et Mercier watch company was founded in 1912 by William Baume et Paul Mercier. Since then, the Baume et Mercier watches have been one of the most innovative technological breakthroughs in the timekeeping world. The introduction and development of the planetary rotor led to the production of the world's thinnest self-winding watch. Along with other awards, Baume et Mercier watches received coveted awards such as Poinon de Geneve, the highest honor given to master watchmakers by the Republic of Canton of Geneva.
