The Slim D’hermès Squelette Lune has Skeletonized Titanium and Platinum

The Slim d’Hermès Squelette Lune skeletonized titanium and platinum launch expands Hermès’ Slim d’Hermès watch family with a timepiece that combines openworked movement architecture and premium materials. The design features a skeletonized dial and movement that reveal internal bridges, gears, and finishing details within a streamlined case composed of brushed titanium paired with a platinum bezel, creating contrast between lightness and precious weight. Applied hour markers and slender hands maintain legibility while preserving the openwork aesthetic.

The movement uses a manually wound calibre developed for thin profile architecture, with visible components finished with satin brushing, polished anglage and cut-out details that articulate the skeleton theme. The case proportions balance presence with everyday wearability, and the watch is paired with a fine leather strap that complements the metal surfaces.
