ARCEAU

The Arceau model elegantly expresses the original source of inspiration of the House of Hermès: the equestrian world. A 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 Ebony Chronograph

The new Arceau Ebony Chronograph pays a vivid tribute to Hermès' first companion, the horse, by combining aesthetic elegance, impeccable precision and refined harmony. Against the ebony-coloured 43 mm dial backdrop, time trots, canters or gallops around the étoupe-coloured numerals and hour-markers. The large central seconds hand with its brand-signature orange shade sweeps smoothly over the dial, revealing the presence of the mechanical movement beating at the heart of this chronograph. The harmoniously integrated simple date window and counters provide eminently readable functions as well as enhancing the aesthetic appeal of the model. Echoing the refined touches on the dial, a generous ebony-coloured barenia calfskin strap accentuates the distinctive nature of this latest addition to the Arceau range.
