In a zirconium case showing off the Wankel-inspired movement to advantage, it is not hard to see that this limited edition of 12 pieces is the result of a joint effort between Urwerk and MB&F. Learn more about it in this video with watch journalist Elizabeth Doerr. How do brands use Digital Media and in particular Social Media as an efficient communication platform? What are the dangers and the limits? Is transparency compatible with the world of luxury? Find out in this special video report Interview with Fabienne Lupo, President of the Fondation de la Haute Horlogerie, about this year’s expectations around the SIHH 2012. La Montre Hermès has just shown us a really interesting timepiece, one that embodies the historical skills of the House and its new watchmaking capabilities with their very own movement, the H1837. The idea of “In the pocket”" is based on a model originally developed for an Hermès family member in 1912 and gives you 3 possibilities of wearing it: as a pocket watch, a necklace or as a wrist watch where your wrist will be fully and comfortably surrounded with Hermès leather. The downside? Well, it’s a limited edition for only 24 happy customers around this planet. The upside? We really loved it! Find out the 7 deadly sins of Franco Cologni, chairman of the Cultural Council of the FHH. Interview produced during the 2011 SIHH for the blog of the FHH.
