Hermès Arceau Duc Attelé (2024)

Case is in 18k rose gold in 43mm, sapphire crystal with display case back; water resistant to 30m. The watch is one of Hermes’ rare grand complications; an all new hand-wound Calibre H1926, with a central triple-axis tourbillon and a minute repeater, running on a 5Hz balance. The movement is an extensive development by Le Cercle des Horlogers. Technically complicated but also keeping its elegance, emphasizing Hermès’s rich equestrian heritage, the watch dial and movement details nod to the Duc Attelé carriage, marrying technical mastery with thematic elegance. And if you take a deeper look at the movement construction, you can see it mimic a horse and carriage, and when the minute repeater is activated, the horse will move.

Power reserve is 48-hour.

Cartier Masse Mysterieuse (2022)
  • Cartier has always been known to their mystery clock, mystery tourbillons, this year they have launched the Masses Mystérieuse – the whole movement swings as the rotor.
  • Staying on theme with the mystery factor, you don’t see the connection between the hands and the movement – in this case the center pivot is visible.
  • However, the illusion is the movement swinging with the motion of the wrist, giving an almost “winding rotor” like action.
  • The watch case is in PT950 platinum at 43.5mm.
  • Ruby cabochon completes the iconic signature.
  • The automatic bi-directional winding movement is the all new 9801MC, that took a whopping 8 years of development; to the untrained eye, this maybe not seem like a complicated feat, but to those who understands haute horlogerie, this is not a simple task that Cartier managed to achieve; elegance, complexity and staying on point to the brands DNA.
  • Power reserve is 42 hrs Limited to 30pcs.
  • Priced at 250,000€
