Hermés Expands H08 Collection with Lightweight Titanium Models Featuring Signature Colours and Shape Journey

Hermès, the iconic French luxury brand renowned for its unique design ethos and iconic quality, has launched two new models of its popular H08 men’s watch. First debuted four years ago, the H08 collection is characteristic of the brand’s flair for enigmatic shapes and playful contrasts, earning it critical acclaim and popularity among watch connoisseurs. The latest additions carry forward the legacy in form and spirit but introduce new advancements like lightweight titanium cases and a careful selection of signature Hermès colour accents. The brand also offers an array of strap options, enabling customers to express their personal style.

The impressive H08 was designed by Philippe Delhotal, the creative director of La Montre Hermès. With a 39mm x 39mm cushion-shaped case, the watch is a reflection of Hermès’ penchant for experimenting with proportions, shapes, and volumes. The case is crafted from lightweight titanium and boasts smooth satin-brushed contours. The bezel varies in width and constricts at the waist, providing the watch with a sunray-brushed look with mirror-polished bevels. The dial-framing area contrasts with its round and mirror-polished design that reflects light beautifully. With a charming look and thoughtful functionality features like a screw-down crown, the versatile H08 can fathom depths of upto 100 metres, making it an all-terrain watch.

Hermès has always shown exceptional attention to detail, which resonates in the unique numerals of the watch. Numbers 0 and 8 reverberate the cushion-shaped case and the name of the collection (H08). The wide chapter ring is sandblasted to produce a grained effect, aligning with the central area of the dial.
