There is perhaps no more faint praise when it comes to watchmaking than calling something well-designed. Dismissing design in this way is a long tradition in watchmaking. This is unfortunate because great design encapsulates not only the look and feel of a timepiece, but also how it takes hold in one?s mind. While a disdain for design does have real roots in watchmaking, fine and otherwise, the times have moved on and timepieces with them.
It is impossible to consider and understand contemporary watchmaking as practised by Hermès Horloger, for one, without acknowledging the merits of design. Mind that the previous sentence is not to impugn the manufacture in any way ? we do not after all use the word manufacture lightly.
In the course of looking at forward-thinking timepieces as a celebratory option for our website and L?Officiel Singapore audiences, Hermès invariably came up. However, my interest in the watches from this whimsical brand runs towards those for men, which of course demonstrates that there is more than one sort of approach here.
