OUR ADVENTURE
↓
AN UNPRECEDENTED TREASURE HUNT
More than a concept, Balmont is an adventure to live. Each year, our team will travel the world to bury or even submerge an airtight time capsule containing a model guaranteed for life, only available for those who are not afraid. A mission briefing which will analyze the topography, climate, fauna and flora, will be delivered in each watch box with the precise GPS coordinates of the capsule. The latter will of course contain the watch produced in an ultra-limited series at the rate of only one per mission, but also instructions to contact our mission manager so that the story of your adventure will be shared to our community. You will thus become one of our ambassadors and proudly represent the colors of our house. Stay tuned, the first mission starts soon !
ONE MISSION PER YEAR
Because the nature that surrounds us is full of breathtaking landscapes and treasures to discover, each mission will be unique in terms of location and natural environment. Whatever the outcome of your trip, you are bound to come out a winner. Dare the adventure !
2024: MISSION ALPHA
As Maurice Herzog experienced during his climb up Annapurna in 1950, the mountain is an environment as hostile as dazzling. Cursed by its cold and rapidly changing climate, its often snow-covered rocky soil, devoid of fauna and flora, it has been the ideal playground for going beyond our limits since the dawn of time.
2025: MISSION BETA
Marco Polo witnessed it while crossing the Gobi Desert in Central Asia in the 13th century: it is an environment that is both daunting and magical. Consisting of vast arid expanses and sometimes populated by canyons, the desert is as hot during the day as it is freezing at night, but offers an incomparable spectacle on the sky and its stars.
2026: MISSION GAMMA
As Jules Verne was able to illustrate in his novel "The Mysterious Island", a desert island can turn out to be as welcoming as unforgiving. Bursting with idyllic views but blessed with very limited resources, it is a hot and humid climate environment that appeals to your most primitive senses.
2027: MISSION DELTA
Rich and captivating, the jungle is as magical by day as it is nightmarish by night. Inevitably located along the equator, it offers a fierce program : hot and humid climate all year round, heavy rainfall and overwhelming biodiversity. It is strongly advised not to enter without a guide.
2028: MISSION EPSILON
Formerly lakes, now evaporated, the salt deserts are the result of a long process of saline accumulation within a closed basin. Their lunar allure coupled with the dazzling colors and vast expanses that accompany them make them must-see places for any explorer seeking an adventure in arid and mountainous environments.
