For the dressier watch lover, the Maillon libre collection continues Hermès’ exploration of timepieces as high luxury accessories. The collection sees a reinterpretation of the iconic anchor chain link as a wristwatch and a brooch watch. The two wrist pieces can be worn multiple ways, creating a contrasting softness and tension that brings in a contemporary aesthetic. The singular wristwatch has a highlighted complex structure, featuring diamonds or terracotta tourmaline centre stones. With a bracelet design, it adds a playful and elegant look to the watch. As for the brooch pendant, it offers a more masculine perspective that can be worn on its own or transformed thanks to its leather cordlet.

Limited to just 12 pieces, the piece features a equestrian motif, with a playful animation, engraving and miniature painting. The dial reinterprets the mischievous horse imagined by Dimitri Rybaltchenko for the Rocabar de rire silk scarf, making it extra Hermès coded. The whimsical and cheerful image of the horse comes to life with its prankster tongue. Hours, minutes and the “on-demand impulse” function are driven by the Manufacture Hermès H1837 movement, enabling the finishing and the all over branding adorning its bridges and oscillating weight to be visible through the sapphire crystal case-back. The watch features an alligator strap that highlights the anthracite, red and straw-coloured shades of the dial.
