Every Hermès release from Watches & Wonders 2024
Tom AustinAs a rule, fashion brands and watches don’t usually mix. However, Hermès is a rare exception. Not only is Hermès one of the most highly revered fashion brands of all time, but in recent years, it has gained a significant foothold in being able to compete with the best in the watch business. Firstly, the brand has an uncanny ability to produce unique sports watches, which is no mean feat whatsoever, but it can also explore haute horlogerie with intricately decorated pieces of wearable art, with significant confidence. And that is precisely what Hermès has launched at Watches and Wonders 2024; today, we take a look at their latest offerings.
