Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, Hermès quietly produced elegant Swiss-made watches that reflected the same understated design philosophy that made the brand famous in leather goods and fashion.\u003cspan aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"420\" data-end=\"843\"\u003eMost examples of this reference are encountered in stainless steel, making this two-tone configuration notably less common. The combination of steel and gold gives the watch a warmer appearance while retaining the restrained proportions expected of an ultra-thin dress watch. The finely executed coin-edge bezel adds another layer of detail, creating visual interest without disrupting the simplicity of the overall design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"845\" data-end=\"1219\"\u003eThe dial is arguably the highlight. At first glance it appears minimalist, but closer inspection reveals the distinctive Hermès carriage motifs used as markers. It is a subtle detail that immediately separates the watch from traditional Swiss dress watches of the period. Rather than borrowing design cues from larger manufactures, Hermès created something uniquely its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1221\" data-end=\"1480\"\u003eAt 34mm, the case feels perfectly proportioned for the style. Thin, elegant, and surprisingly versatile, it wears much like the classic ultra-slim watches produced by the major Swiss houses during the same era while maintaining a personality entirely its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWriter’s Thoughts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"qMYqUG_convSearchResultHighlightRoot\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"text-token-text-primary w-full focus:outline-none has-data-writing-block:pointer-events-none [\u0026amp;:has([data-writing-block])\u0026gt;*]:pointer-events-auto R6Vx5W_threadScrollVars scroll-mb-[calc(var(--scroll-root-safe-area-inset-bottom,0px)+var(--thread-response-height))] scroll-mt-[calc(var(--header-height)+min(200px,max(70px,20svh)))]\" dir=\"auto\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text-base my-auto mx-auto pb-10 [--thread-content-margin:var(--thread-content-margin-xs,calc(var(--spacing)*4))] @w-sm\/main:[--thread-content-margin:var(--thread-content-margin-sm,calc(var(--spacing)*6))] @w-lg\/main:[--thread-content-margin:var(--thread-content-margin-lg,calc(var(--spacing)*16))] px-(--thread-content-margin)\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"[--thread-content-max-width:40rem] @w-lg\/main:[--thread-content-max-width:48rem] mx-auto max-w-(--thread-content-max-width) flex-1 group\/turn-messages focus-visible:outline-hidden relative flex w-full min-w-0 flex-col agent-turn\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"flex max-w-full flex-col gap-4 grow\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\" class=\"min-h-8 text-message relative flex w-full flex-col items-end gap-2 text-start break-words whitespace-normal outline-none keyboard-focused:focus-ring [.text-message+\u0026amp;]:mt-1\" tabindex=\"0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"flex w-full flex-col gap-1 empty:hidden\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"markdown prose dark:prose-invert wrap-break-word w-full dark markdown-new-styling\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1504\" data-end=\"2052\" class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\"\u003eHandling a lot of vintage dress watches, it's rare to come across something that feels genuinely different. This Hermès Ultra Slim manages exactly that. The two-tone case, coin-edge bezel, and carriage markers create a combination that is truly unique to this watch. Most collectors immediately associate Hermès with leather, but watches like this remind you that the brand has quietly produced some incredibly tasteful designs over the years. The fact that this example remains unpolished with a perfect dial only makes it more appealing.\u003cspan aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOur Promise\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery watch is thoroughly vetted, carefully described with complete transparency, and guaranteed authentic.
