Hermès

The visually enticing, rose gold-clad Slim d’hermès L’heure Impatiente launched this year, and it features a charming “poetic complication”, in the mould of the maison’s Le Temps Suspendu watch from 2011. Set the reminder counter on L’heure Impatiente to any point in the 12 hours ahead and, exactly one hour beforehand, a 60-minute countdown begins. At the end of the countdown, a light chime is emitted to tell you that whatever you’ve been looking forward to has arrived. Waiting has never been so much fun.
