THE DIRECTOR
Hermès has always been a house that takes delight in producingcing watches that put a playful twist on time-telling. Its Slim d’Hermès L’heure Impatientete is no different. The watch features an alarm, which in itself is not a novel function. . The twist here is that it alsoo features a 60-minute countdown function that kickscks in an hour to the alarm’s sett time, before chiming a crystal tal clear note at the end of the hour. It’s from this function that thehe watch gets its name (the impatientnt hour in English). And with that, Hermèsrmès has set the scene for an hour-long drama of anticipation and suspense.
