    The Slim d'Hermes Limited Edition

    Really liking this one, especially the clever numerals... the only thing I'm not sure on is the Hermes as a brand name, always reminds me of....

    I like that one also, the non-limited edition ones are really nice too.

    That's a very attractive watch & the back is almost as good as the front, IMVHO...

    I saw that on Instagram and liked it. But can a fashion house really be trusted to make quality watches?

    On this evidence, I'd say they can. Like a lot but doubt I'd buy

    It is lovely. I'd still prefer a Vacheron ultra slim. Those lines are simply perfection.

    Very nice, I'd have no problem if that was in my watch box.

    Hermes aren't just any fashion house, they have quite a strong tradition in horology. Really lovely dial.

    Stunning and love the font for the numerals.

    As mentioned Hermes have a long history in watches.

    I'm not convinced by the numerals or incomplete lines. The case and rear however are quality.

    I really like that, particularly the construction of the dial and the micro-rotor movement -I wonder what calibre it is. Being Hermes the strap is likely to be something special but, then again, so is the depreciation on $23k.

    Will make a nice used buy when it turns up around $6-8k in a couple years time.

    Nice enough watch but seems vastly inspired from the Piaget Altiplano which would be my choice if i ever went for a super slim watch.

    How effective are micro-rotors?

    They seem a really good idea, but obviously aren't widely used.

    Are they not as good as full sized rotors or just more complex/expensive to build?
