The Arceau Robe Légère, a stunning watch that brings together exceptional craftsmanship and timeless elegance. Inspired by the iconic Robe Légère silk scarf by French artist Théo de Gueltzl, this timepiece celebrates the artistry of paillonné enamelling.
Designed by Henri d’Origny in 1978, the classic Arceau watch has been reimagined with a 38mm white gold case, set with 71 diamonds and showcasing a breathtaking dial. This exquisite navy dial features a rearing horse motif, crafted with silver-spangled enamel to evoke a delicate, flowing floral pattern. To achieve this effect, artisans meticulously layer silver flakes within the enamel, producing a shimmering depth that is both captivating and rare.
Powered by the Hermès H1912 movement, this limited edition of only 24 pieces is as technically accomplished as it is beautiful. The watch is complemented by a matt abyss blue alligator strap, adding a refined finish to this remarkable work of art.
This Arceau Robe Légère is more than a timepiece – it is a tribute to Hermès’ dedication to the art of horology and its commitment to creating objects that bring joy to daily life.
