Fly Me to the Moon

Special for this year’s SIHH, Hermès presents the Arceau Heure de la Lune, which carries us up towards the satellite of our Earth. On the dial, whether it’s a meteorite or an aventurine one, the brand injected two white mother-of-pearl discs that surely capture attention. On the first disc, it displays the hours and minutes, while the second one shows the date that comes with blued hands. One thing that makes this watch more special, is none other than the fact that both discs rotate around the central axis once in 59 days, and also corresponds to two complete moon phases. As the discs float above two depictions of the moon and show the satellite’s phases in real time, Hermès successfully expands its universe one step further.
