A Skeleton Behind the Smoke: Hermès Arceau Squelette
- NEWS
Hermès's Arceau timepiece, designed by its longtime artistic director Henri d'Origny in 1978, is perhaps the watch that best expresses the brand's historical roots as a saddle maker: its asymmetrical lugs are shaped like stirrups and the sloping font of it hour numerals evoke the silhouettes of galloping horses. This year, Hermès unveils a new edition of the Arceau that also elegantly demonstrates the maison's watchmaking expertise: the Arceau Squelette.
