The Cape Cod line, a pillar of the Maison Hermès since 1991, reinvents itself in 2014 in a stylish and elegant manner, while still preserving its rounded curves and distinctive lugs. The entire collection thus features a redesigned dial and an interchangeable strap, while the case of the Tonneau and Nantucket models is available in Silver – an unusual silver alloy based on a composition exclusive to Hermès and which lastingly preserves the distinctive radiance of the precious metal.

The subtly curved case shape of the Cape Cod models echoes one of the iconic Hermès jewellery creations that is also inspired by the maritime world: the Anchor Chain bracelet.

Hermès is renewing its ties with this precious metal in its watch creations, turning alchemist by offering its very own silver composition. This new alloy features a larger proportion of silver than the conventional 925 alloy and was specially developed to ensure that silver maintains its characteristic and unique glow over the years.

Nantucket Silver Models

The slender and graceful Nantucket watch wraps its elegant lines smoothly around the wrist, highlighting the shimmering reflections and distinctive radiance of the Silver alloy now replacing its initial 925 silver.

Delicately curved to ensure perfect comfort, non-set or gem-set according to the model, its case inspired by an anchor-chain link is moored to the wrist by interchangeable leather straps underscoring the precious nature of this creation.

Interpreted in small or large variations, Cape Cod Tonneau exudes a rounded vision of time conveyed through the curves of its case.

Neatly following the outlines of this silver frame, the dial stamped with a geometrical motif lends a resolutely modern touch to the design.
