Hermes Timepieces
Legendary designer Philippe Mouquet has worked at Hermes since the late '80s. Only a few years into his tenure, he created the 'Heure H' timepiece - it's now one of the most treasured and recognizable styles in the brand's repertoire. Crafted in Switzerland using centuries-old techniques, this small 21mm model is fitted with a wraparound leather strap hand saddle-stitched by artisans, and has a polished rose gold-plated case carved into the shape of the maison's initial. The case back is engraved with a horse and carriage emblem in homage to its equestrian heritage, while the white lacquered dial makes the gleaming sword-shaped hands and numerals easy to discern. Each Hermes 'Heure H' watch comes with instructions on how to change the strap and a tool to enable you to do so.
