De nieuwe Arceau Très Grand Modèle van Hermès …
The hazelnut version of the Arceau Très Grand Modèle watch plays on its different materials. The dial’s central disc features a vertical herringbone and guilloché pattern where the two leaf-shaped hour and minute hands are set, while the embossed hour rim is placed on a sunburst ring. The minute track is made up of tiny dots running round the chapter ring, and the date appears in an open window at 6 o’clock. The different functions are driven by the calibre H1837, a self-winding movement made by Hermès and providing 50 hours of power reserve.
The version with the blue lacquered and sunburst dial has the same elements (hours and minutes at the centre, date at 6 o’clock), but is powered by a Swiss-made quartz mechanism.
Price: 5,000 CHF (self-winding model) – 3,050 CHF (quartz model)
