This watch, much more loquacious than it appears, thus does not just tell the time: it indicates the impossible.
In practical terms, by activating the pusher located at 9 o'clock, the hour and minute hands move into a relative position that they could never have during the normal flow of time, on either side of noon. This non-existent hour is a voluntary, artificial parenthesis, a momentary liberation from the constraints of the flow of time.
Protected by two patents - one for its architecture, the other for the backlash-compensating gear teeth - this jewel of horological engineering alone has 24 jewels and is equipped with three backlash-compensating wheels. The running and suspending phases of time are coordinated by two synchronized column wheels, one for the hours, the other for the minutes coupled to the date. The 360° retrograde mechanism of the hours and minutes makes the time disappear without interrupting the movement.
Watch sold with 3 additional Hermes straps: one in black alligator leather , one in chocolate alligator leather and one in black smooth leather.
Collector's watch in good condition with polishing available on request!!! delivered with box, instruction manual and original Hermes warranty certificate.
