An elegant fusion of leather and steel, this Hermès ring clock was created in the style of a travel clock, encircled by a leather ring that doubles up as a stand. The clock is also accompanied by a matching leather case. Representing an era of quiet luxury, it also pays homage to Hermès’ origins in the equine accessories industry.

This Hermès ring clock combines metal and leather to create an attractive travel companion, equipped with a handy alarm function. The clock itself is encircled by a “ring” which doubles up as a stand for the clock, allowing it to be viewed when upright in the style of a travel clock. The crown is placed at 12 o’clock, with a pusher allowing to adjust the alarm function in 15 minutes increments.

The dial has aged over time, leaving us with creamy shade, with the lume-filled indexes in a slightly darker colour. The blued hands are similarly lume-filled, and have aged to a similar degree as the markers.

In keeping with their history as leather craftsmen and equestrians, the ring that serves as a stand for the clock is encased in a deep burgundy leather, and the clock itself is accompanied by a circular leather case that fits snugly around the clock and bears stitching that is reminiscent of a saddle bag. This ensures that the clock can be carried around safely during travel.

If sold within the United Kingdom, this Hermès Travel Alarm Clock “Ring” Style will be subject to 20% VAT.

This Hermès clock remains in an impressive condition overall, for an object of its age. The patina is throughout consistent on the dial while the case shows minimum signs of wear. The burgundy leather case remains in a remarkable condition.

The movement, as well as the alarm is functional and have been fully serviced. This Hermès clock comes with a 12-month mechanical warranty from A Collected Man.
