Pierre Soulages is a French painter and an artist who pioneered a new path in the field of modern art in the early 20th century. He is known for his unique black painting style. Baume & Mercier's cooperation with him can be traced back to 2022. This year, to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Soulages Museum, Baume & Mercier specially launched the Hampton "Polyptyque Special - Commemorating the 10th Anniversary of the Soulages Museum" watch inspired by Pierre Soulages' work "Beyond Black", which is the one in the picture. In order to fully restore the artist's work, Baume & Mercier used advanced 3D printing technology. The dial of the watch adopts a black composition. The vertical and inclined lines on the dial are intertwined with the texture effect of the painting. In order to present the light and dark contrast in the painting, laser-cut brass and Levant stone are used to modify and polish to create a soft matte look.
The black hour and minute hands seem to be integrated with the black dial, and only the hemispherical needle tip decorated with 18K rose gold "floats" above the dial. The rectangular DLC case is sandblasted and then deposited with a 2 mm thick hydrogenated amorphous carbon ion layer by plasma chemical vapor deposition, making it 6000 HV Vickers hardness. The watch is equipped with a Swiss automatic ETA 2892 mechanical movement with a power reserve of 45 hours. Best luxury clone watches online, buy replica watches at firstwatchclone.co.
