French luxury fashion label Hermès has added a new timepiece to its continually expanding H08 men's collection dubbed 'Blue Titanium.'
Designed by Hermès Horloger's creative director, Philippe Delhotal, the new watch comes with a luxurious matte blue DLC-coated titanium case paired with an all-black ceramic bezel and crown. As a result, the piece expertly blends colors and materials, delivering a bold and sophisticated style.
In addition, the entire piece features a dark blue PVD coating that is applied to its grain-textured dial -- a detail that contrasts nicely with the watch's circular brushed finishes. In terms of power, the timepiece features a Vaucher-manufactured 4Hz H1837 automatic movement that boasts an impressive 45-hour power reserve. The new watch is currently available to purchase on Hermès' website.
