A Watch That’s Like a Birkin for Your WristChelsie Craig

For the past several years, the timepiece designers at Hermès have been at a creative high. First, there was the hit H08 released in 2021, a 39mm sport watch with a unique
aesthetic of a cushion case, and chic, rounded numerals that no one saw coming. Now, the French luxury house released yet another completely new design in the Cut, a self-winding companion model which comes in stainless steel or two-tone steel and rose gold created with women in mind, though its 36mm diameter suits most wrists.

The round bezel and opaline silvered dial with applied indices lend it familiarity and legibility, while a choice of a metal bracelet or various colorful rubber straps—not to mention 100 meters of water resistance—makes the piece as versatile as it is novel. This watch is proof that pushing the envelope can have its rewards.
