DESCRIPTION

  • “Letting the imagination run free is not a flight into the unreal, it is not escapism; it is instead the expression of boldness and inventiveness.”
    Eugène Ionesco

    Based on the Hermès theme for 2009, “The Great Escape”, the craftsmen and designers of La Montre Hermès have given free rein to their creativity. They invite us to travel to a place where horological emotions meet and mingle with technical virtuosity, guided by the relentless pursuit of innovation and a perpetual quest for excellence that merge to create a smooth and harmonious inventive flow. With the heart as a driving force and the hand to guide their imagination, they freely interpret a theme that resonates like a challenge to push the boundaries of existing skills, opening up unexplored vistas for the tradition in perpetual motion that binds their artistic crafts together in a same community of spirit. The nimble gestures of leather craftsmen, watchmaker and enamelled artists have shaped the dreams of “The Great Escape” by the Maison Hermès, devoting countless hours to reaching that magical point where technical complexity gives way to essentials: sheer beauty and that perfect moment in time.

    Time… the intimate and indispensable companion of travellers and craftsmen. Infinitely variable and endowed with an elastic nature that expands or contracts according to the feelings by which we measure it. Time that glides by in flowing and classically elegant seconds, as on the dial of the Arceau chronograph, as smoothly as the stride of a sorrel thoroughbred horse. Time that dictates the eternal cycle of the moon with astronomical precision and, secured by a saddle leather strap, gives the owner of the Arceau Pocket moon phases watch the sense of actually holding its elusive self in the palm of his hand. Time interpreted by the delicate strokes of the artist’s brush creating the mesmerising depths of the grand feu enamelled painting on the Cape Cod “Galloping H”. And finally, time that pauses for an 8-day stop-over, captivated by the crystal sphere of a boule clock and the inner journey of the hands punctuating the mysterious dance of the hours.

    Exceptional timepieces, representing a series of “great escapes” to the very core of the art of time and the spirit of the House. Through their nobility of their materials, their emblematic lines, the impressive performances of their calibres and the refinement of their finishing, these objects of genuine passion and emotion contribute to establishing the fact that in the world of Hermès as in that of Haute Horlogerie, dreams represent the true victory over time.

    ARCEAU

    The Arceau model elegantly expresses the original source of inspiration of the House of Hermès: the equestrian world. A single steel stirrup prolongs the case with its integrated asymmetrical lugs securing a strap fastened by a folding clasp. The evocative design of the sloping numerals lends a unique cadence to the beautiful hours depicted on the dial. Telling a long-established love story and expressing a wealth of expertise, Arceau makes its way through time with the understated boldness of a great classic.

    Arceau Alezan chronograph


    The new Arceau Alezan chronograph pays a vivid tribute to Hermès’ first companion, the horse, by combining aesthetic elegance, impeccable precision and refined harmony within a superbly coloured model. Against the cream backdrop of its 43 mm dial, the numerals and hour-markers display their highly symbolic new “alezan” (chestnut) colour and admirably highlighting this year’s theme, “The Great Escape”. The large central seconds hand with its brand-signature orange shade sweeps smoothly around the dial, revealing the presence of the mechanical movement beating at the heart of this chronograph model. The harmoniously integrated simple date window and raised counters enhance the aesthetic appeal and the readability of their functions. Echoing the refined touches on the dial, a generous swift calfskin leather strap also featuring the unprecedented alezan hue accentuates the contemporary personality and the boldly assertive nature of this latest addition to the Arceau range.
