Hermes debuts the Cut, a circular sports watch for women

At Watches & Wonders 2024, Hermes unveiled its latest collection. Dubbed the Hermes Cut, it’s a sports watch collection for women, yet still universally appealing. 

The Hermes Cut collection follows the success of the H08, a line of sports watches with a distinctive cushion-shaped case for men that first debuted in 2021.

Sporting a round case, the Cut measures at 36mm, a size that doesn't feel too big on the wrist. It's available in stainless steel or two-tone steel and rose gold. Those who want a dressier option can opt for diamond-set bezels. 

As a fresh twist, the crown is unexpectedly positioned at the 1.30 mark, embellished with a lacquered or engraved H. The seconds hand on the steel model features a luminescent Hermes orange dot, with grey and orange-accented minutes track. The two-tone models on the other hand do without orange accents for a pared back aesthetic.

The watch has a sapphire caseback that shows off the Manufacture Hermes H1912 movement. It has 50 hours of power reserve and water resistance of 100m.

The integrated metal bracelet can be swapped out for rubber straps in an array of colours. All in all, it’s a simple watch with its own graphic identity, ideal for everyday wear.
