Hermès introduced its first attempt at crafting a men’s timepiece in 2021, with the H08 model designed by Philippe Delhotal. Since then, the Maison has released several variants, including a taxi yellow accented limited-edition version. Geneva’s Watches & Wonders 2023 saw Hermès expand its H08 lineup with four new designs in yellow, green, blue, and orange.
The new H08 watches feature a cushion-shaped multilayered composite of aluminized fiberglass and slate powder watch case, satin-brushed titanium bezel with mirror-polished chamfers, black PVD-coated crown, gray dial, SuperLumiNova covered silica-composite hour markers, Anti-glare sapphire crystal and case-back, black nickel-treated dial, and water resistance of 100 meters. The new colors make their way onto the weave-patterned rubber strap, watch-glass seal, minute track, and the seconds hand to complete the new design.
Like the others in the line, the new watches run on the Hermes Manufacture movement H1837. It’s a mechanical self-winding movement with 193 parts, 28 jewels, a date window at 4:30, a 50-hour power reserve, and Swiss Made Hour, minute, and second functions.
