ARCEAU L’HEURE DE LA LUNE MODEL, REF. AR1.870C, CASE NO. 8⁄24 AND 3’575’759, CIRCA 2024

An expression of a classic horological complication, the Arceau L'heure de la Lune offers an original interpretation of Hermès watchmaking expertise. At 12 o'clock, the moon is adorned by a Pegasus designed by the "dreamer-designer" Dimitri Rybaltchenko. Entitled Pleine Lune (Full Moon), this portrayal of the winged horse hints at a passage between two worlds, where magic and reality merge. On the other side, at 6 o'clock, the view of the moon from the northern hemisphere provides a realistic depiction of its surface. The mobile counters displaying the time and date turn weightlessly to reveal the moon discs, while maintaining their horizontal orientation.
