Hermès introduced the “Hermès Cut” three-hand watch during Watches & Wonders Geneva 2024. The newly designed case shape blends minimalist and geometric aesthetics, filled with playful and lighthearted details.
The Hermès Cut collection features a highly distinctive new case design: a circular bezel and dial are housed within a cushion-shaped case with rounded corners. The sides feature polished, smooth “facets” reminiscent of gemstone cutting. This organic fusion of circle and square imparts a sense of minimalist order while remaining dynamic in its proportions and details.
The 36mm case of the new model is primarily satin-brushed, while the side facets are mirror-polished, creating a three-dimensional play of light and shadow. To achieve a more cohesive visual effect for the entire watch, the crown is positioned at 2 o’clock, also allowing the watch to be worn comfortably on either wrist.
The circular white dial follows a classic three-hand layout, revealing numerous carefully considered design details: the rhodium-plated baton hour hand precisely sweeps along the edge of the minute track, the “lollipop” seconds hand aligns perfectly with the orange seconds scale, and the numeral “0” in the 10 o’clock Arabic numeral is specially designed to echo the shape of the case.

Furthermore, it is worth noting that all straps in the new collection feature a quick-release system. Options include a metal bracelet and up to eight different colored rubber straps, catering to your wearing preferences for any mood.
