The 8485 Classima combines classic elegance with minimalistic styling. This watch is quite large at 42 mm in diameter, but thanks to the great design by Baume & Mercier, it is still pretty thin and light. It also sports a clear sapphire crystal which remains clear for years and is very scratch-resistant. They also have a hard stainless steel casing to give this watch strength as well as beauty.
If you are thinking of getting one for yourself, then you better know everything there is to know about it because even though it is a quartz watch, it still costs a lot of money. So to help you find out more about the Baume & Mercier Men’s 8485 Classima Swiss Date Watch, here are a couple of the pros and cons of this watch.

- The quartz movement inside ensures that this watch will not lose even one second for a very long time; and being Swiss-made, it is very accurate.
Cons:
- It is not automatic, which means you have to change batteries once they run out of power. But if you are not really bothered with that fact, then this little detail can easily be overlooked.
