WATCHES Fine art for the wrist

Hermès lends the singular aesthetic of its famous round Arceau watch to a new stylistic expression in the Arceau Soleil. This time, in order to create fascinating depth and effects of light to the dial, the maison reinterpreted a gleaming graphic design, which is imagined by Swiss artist Fred Rawyler for a silk scarf. As a result, the watch comes with an illuminated dial, which is also engraved with a sunray pattern and set with levitating diamonds. Furthermore, a translucent lacquer in shades of blue or grey swathes the engraved motif in an aura of mystery. Finally, the exquisitely light gem-set steel case of this elegant watch is completed with an alligator strap.
