The Cap Camarat collection, launched in 2018 by French watchmaker HERBELIN, gets its name from a cape located in the south of the Saint-Tropez peninsula.
Originally launched in a quartz version, the Cap Camarat Square is now available with a self-winding movement. Retaining its neo-vintage feel with an urban spirit, this new timepiece will satisfy every aficionado of fine mechanisms, while offering versatility of wear with its sporty look.
Structuring time in a square format with rounded corners, the stainless steel case (39 mm x 39 mm) reveals a highly geometric robustness, accentuated by the crown protection. Sporting a bezel adorned with six decorative screws positioned in an extension of the hour markers, the ensemble is contrasted by a vertical brushed finish highlighted with polished facets, completing the watch’s sporty elegance.
The timepiece features a date aperture at 6 o’clock and is mounted on a black strap in high-performance FKM elastomer. It was specially designed to fit the contours of the watch and is guaranteed for 10 years thanks to its highly durable material. With a raised centre and cutout sides, its shape echoes the existing metal bracelet.
This new HERBELIN timepiece is water-resistant to 100 metres. It is designed, assembled, adjusted and inspected at the brand’s workshops in the Jura mountains of the Franche-Comté region. Benefiting from French watchmaking expertise passed down from father to son for over 75 years, it presents a Swiss-made self-winding movement, a mark of quality and reliability: the Sellita SW 200-1.
Bringing a 1970s HERBELIN heritage model up to date, the Cap Camarat Square is bound to make an impression, with an elegance that is proud to be different.
