The new Hermès Médor Rock collection is a masterful blend of elegance and rebellion in a new luxe timepiece. This new timepiece collection plays on the concealed watch design concept, with the face hidden behind a lacquered pyramid stud. The stud can easily be opened with a press of the crown revealing a small face with an incredibly minimalist design.
The Médor Rock collection is powered by a quartz movement and is worn via a triple tour strap. The inspiration for the strap was taken from Hermès' dog collar bracelet, which also plays off the studded bracelets seen in punk and rock n' roll style. The Médor Rock collection will be available in three versions, with some featuring a plain silver-tone pyramid stud, some with a lacquered stud and a few with a cross-set. The straps also vary in color ranging from capucine to inky blue.
