Hermès unveils the Slim d'Hermès Cheval brossé: A timepiece where elegance and art converge

"...Hermès presents the Slim d’Hermès Cheval brossé, a creation that transcends the realm of timekeeping to become a wearable work of art..."

This exceptional timepiece is a refined reinterpretation of the horse, a cherished emblem of Hermès, brought to life by the creative vision of Dimitri Rybaltchenko. It embodies the maison’s 2025 annual theme, "Drawn to Craft," celebrating a profound passion for artisanal excellence. While fine art is often framed and displayed upon walls, this masterpiece finds its frame in white gold, adorning the wrist and moving in harmony with its wearer. This transformation elevates the Slim d’Hermès Cheval brossé beyond mere functionality, turning it into a living, breathing expression of artistic savoir-faire.

The creation of its dial is nothing short of mesmerising. From an empty canvas, a celestial blue expanse is meticulously crafted through the art of grand feu enamel, requiring multiple firings to achieve its deep, enduring hue. Upon this radiant backdrop, the silhouette of the horse emerges through pad-printing, a process demanding precision and delicacy at every stage, akin to an artist delicately bringing a dream to life. Beyond its ethereal beauty, this timepiece is bound by exclusivity, with only 24 pieces in existence, offering a fleeting glimpse of artistry reserved for only a fortunate few. At its heart beats the ultra-slim H1950 self-winding mechanical movement, housed within a sleek white gold case and paired with a matte Bleu Abysse alligator leather strap, a shade that further enhances the dial’s striking brilliance.

In a world where time is relentlessly pursued, the Slim d’Hermès Cheval brossé serves as an invitation to pause, appreciate, and immerse oneself in the artistry of time. It reminds us that time is not merely a sequence of passing hours, but a canvas of emotions, a gateway to new horizons, and an ever-evolving space where elegance and playfulness coexist in perfect harmony.
