Hermès Carré H Watch Hands-On

For 2018, Hermès joined the expanding roster of SIHH brands for the first time and reintroduced their Carré H watch with a new dial design, size, and updated movement for the occasion With a square but rounded case, the Hermès Carré H for 2018 aims for a distinctive presence that will appeal to fans of Hermès fashion, but also some horological cred for picky watch snobs The Hermès Carré H watch for 2018 is 38mm wide in steel and square-shaped with kind of wire-style lugs and a round dial design.

The new 2018 Hermès Carré H is also designed by Berthier, I believe, and it is not the brand's only attempt at a square/rectangular/non-round watch design that will stick - our hands-on with the Hermès Cape Cod watches here, for example Personally, first impressions of the 2018 Hermès Carré H watch immediately conjured a number of other watches for me The Hermès Carré H will probably need to appeal to both fans of Hermès as well as those who appreciate mechanical watches and can afford to watch shop in this price range.

Personally, I've long had a fascination with square and rectangular watches - and loved reviewing this Bell & Ross BR 03-92 Diver, for example - but I think I still prefer the dial design and probably the size of the 2010 version - though not the price tag which, again, is about double that of the 2018 Carré H Price for the 2018 Hermès Carré H watch is $7,725 USD hermescom.
