Baume & Mercier traces its origins to a watch shop opened by brothers Louis-Victor and Pierre Joseph Célestin Baume in Les Bois in the mid-1830s. Pierre Joseph Célestin moved to London in 1847, followed by the establishment of Baume Brothers in 1851. Subsequent generations expanded internationally and competed in observatory precision trials.
