1950s Baume & Mercier Reference 1919 Triple-Calendar Chronograph With Moon-phase

Why This Watch Matters The splendid balance between the chronograph, triple calendar, and moon-phase complications on the dial here is hard to beat. The Full Story A cousin of the celebrated Valjoux 72, the caliber Valjoux 88 is not your average manual-wind chronograph movement. Indeed, it also offers triple calendar and moon-phase complications, which explains the success that it enjoyed with so many brands, including Doxa and Baume & Mercier. And the layout of all these complications is quite irresistible, almost offering the same configuration as a Patek Philippe reference 1518 (except for the date hand with the Valjoux 88). The Baume & Mercier reference 1919 is a vintage watch that offers a lot, and with a lot of elegance.
