Hermes’s latest Arceau Petite Lune

Hovering between an eclipse and shimmering light effects, the Arceau Petite lune watch is graced with a dial featuring deep blue nuances lit up by diamonds adorning a gem set steel case. Designed by Henri d’Origny in 1978, the Arceau watch embodies an elegant blend of boldness and understatement. Its round case with asymmetrical stirrup-shaped lugs creates a look that is both timeless and singular.

Crafted in steel set with 99 diamonds and topped with a rose-cut diamond crown, the Arceau Petite lune watch reveals an eclipse on its dial. A blue-lacquered gradient plays with chiaroscuro effects and highlights its abyss blue heart rimmed with 15 diamonds. Subtly associating depth and brilliance, this ‘evocation by absence’ of the periodically vanishing luminous heavenly body is complemented by an elegant star-studded moon-phase display.
