The Hampton is presented in a 10 mm thick case with recessed sides that highlight the convex sapphire crystal. The rectangle-shaped case measures 31 mm x 47 mm and features a flat crown that controls the hour, minute, second and date.

The caseback has a sapphire crystal offering a view of the Swiss mechanical movement which runs at 4Hz and features a circular perlage finish, blued screws and Geneva stripes on the rotor.

The Baume & Mercier Hampton Automatic comes with a black or brown alligator strap and is water-resistant to 50 meters.
