Hermès ARCEAU Space Derby
With the new Arceau Space Derby watch, Hermès takes us to the futuristic and colourful universe of the illustrator Ugo Bienvenu, who designed the Space Derby silk scarf, inspired by 20th century American comic book superheroes, and imagined brightly coloured cosmic equestrian teams.
Two limited series reinterpret the original design of the Space Derby silk scarf. The first, crafted in white gold and aventurine, reveals a jockey and his aerodynamic chariot, pulled by a thoroughbred in armour, beneath a star-studded sky.
The second, in diamond-set white gold, features a crimson moon-phase display as well as a flame-haired driver holding the reins of a horse-drawn carriage hurtling at full speed.
Both models are equipped with a Manufacture Hermès mechanical self-winding movement and paired with an abyss blue or old rose alligator strap matching the dial colour. They are entirely crafted in the Hermès Horloger workshops.
