The Watch
Here we have a 2016 Hermès Slim d'Hermès Quantième Perpétuel CA3.870, designed by Philippe Delhotal, Creative Director of La Montre Hermès, with a curvaceous polished 18ct Rose Gold 39.5mm round case with elegantly sculpted lugs, and a lug-to-lug length of 44.5mm, a case thickness of 9mm gives the watch an impressive wrist presence.

A polished smooth bezel holds a flat sapphire crystal above a striking ivory dynamic sector dial. Stylised numerals surround a date register at 12 o’clock, a moonphase at 3 o’clock, a 12-hour register at 6 o’clock and finally, a month register, each recessed and beautifully executed with an 18ct rose gold stick hand. Slender 18ct Rose gold hands sit majestically in the centre. At 3 o’clock, the Hermès Paris motif completes this sophisticated, innovative traveller's timepiece. On the reverse, a screwed-down 18ct Rose Gold sapphire exhibition case back, inside an automatic Hermès Cal.

The Brand
The luxury brand Hermès was founded in 1837 by Thierry Hermès, who opened a workshop in rue Basse-du-Rempart, Paris, France. Initially, luxury accessories, equipment, and jewellery were sold to the equestrian world. In 1912, he built his first watch as a present for his son Emile Hermès’ daughter; it wasn’t until 1928 that they produced their first commercial watches with the help of Movado. In 1978, they moved the “La Montre Hermès” “The Hermès Watch” division to Biel, Switzerland. They are part of the prestigious Fondation de la Haute Horlogerie and are still majority family-owned through their holding company H51, and the Arnault family, who own LVMH, own 20%.
