New from Hermès, the Dressage L’heure Masquée watch is made with a unique “Time veiled” mechanism that hides the hour hand underneath the minute hand. The hour is only revealed when one pushes a button on the crown. It appears alongside a dual-time window display and vanishes as soon as pressure is released. Changing the way time is seen, the unusual display plays with the rack, pinion, and gear trains to create the desired effect. The innovative feature is of course integrated into Hermès’ classic design and premier manufacturing. Available in limited edition rose gold and steel styles, the watch shows off its pearlescent face while tirelessly working behind-the-scenes with a self-winding Calibre H1925 and Hermès’ exclusive watch components.
