On the H-our

Designed by Philippe Mouquet, the re-vamped H-our watch from Hermes features a sunburst pattern on the dial, with the brand's signature 'H' framing the watch face. Lines on the face divide the numbers into 12 even segments for easy reading. Customers can choose from a white or black calf-skin strap. Other styles - including the signature double-wrap strap and those made of exotic skins such as alligator and ostrich - will be released at a later date, along with additional colour choices. Prices for the men's watch (left)start at $12,300 while those for women cost from $12,000. Available at Hermes, the Galleria, 9 Queen's Road Central, tel: 2525 5900.
