I love my Baume. I get a ton of compliments on it and I think it is due to the classic design. It works well with my wardrobe and I can stack it with bracelets for a different look. I have an all-stainless version, hopefully someone can chime in about the two-tone.
Your watch is gorgeous!IB et M! I think they are underrated. Yes, they are 18k solid links. Wears like iron.
I have the attached one.
I did a post choosing H Arceau or a Baume Classima. So I kinda did my research on Baume. their gold is 18k solid and NOT plated, so thats a good thing! 
To also share, my father has for the past 30+ years have owned a Baume two-tone watch. The design is nowhere to be found online, but it has held up well. The gold hasn't faded, and still looks great despite my Dad not totally babying it. He has used it on a daily basis since his early career years and he's close to 60 now. Part of the reason why I ended up choosing Baume over Hermes is the nostalgia and emotional attachment my Dad has on the brand.

Thank you!Your watch is gorgeous!
I like how the center of the band is brushed and the outer edges are polished shiny.

It reminds me of the Cartier Ballon Bleu but I actually prefer the look of the Baume - it just looks nicer!
And this coming from someone who adores Cartier!:giggles:
