Hermes Carré H Watch

This is the Carré H (or “Square H”). The “H” is for Hermes DUHH. While not distinctly Hermes at first, the gentle curves of the watch and the design slowly start to feel Hermes in spirit. In a steel case, the brand wanted to make a square watch that wasn’t actually square feeling. The dial design is interesting – though not totally original.Though Hermes adds certain elements such as the subsidiary seconds dial that is a circle within a square, and the textured inner dial. Not to large, the case is 36.5 x 36.5mm in size, in steel. Seems like the case has a nice satin, or sand-blasted look to it. The case is slightly curved, and I quite like the look of the bar-style lugs. Very elegant. Inside the watch is a Sowind GP 3200 automatic with Hermes’ signature “H” decoration. It is a lovely piece with a nice level of architected luxury and a timeless good look with out feeling pretentious. The Hermes Carre H watch will be limited to just 173 pieces... a pieces for each year of Hermes’ existence since being founded in of 1837. Priced at about $15,000.
