The Slim d’Hermès Quantième Perpétuel immediately gets your attention. The numerals with their font specially designed by Philippe Apeloig stand out with light and airy grace.
While the date, month, dual-time and leap-year indications are displayed on various counters, a mother-of-pearl moon phase graces an aventurine sky backdrop at 3 o’clock. The elegant and graphic dial melts seamlessly into the surrounding precious rose gold and titanium or titanium and platinum case.
The remarkably technical ultra-thin Manufacture H1950 movement incorporates one of the most demanding horological complications: a perpetual calendar. This authentic ‘mechanical memory’ ensures that the date of months with 30 and 31 days is automatically adjusted, while taking account of leap years every four years without any need for corrections.
