{"id":37748,"count":26,"description":"Herm\u00e8s has always maintained a strong relationship with time through its objects, heritage, and artisans' work. The first timepieces date back to the 1920s when the company offered watches in the 24 Faubourg St-Honor\u00e9 store in collaboration with renowned Swiss manufacturers. In 1978, Robert Dumas' son, Jean-Louis Dumas, took over the reins of Herm\u00e8s and gently revolutionized the company. Visionary and curious about everything and all cultures, he orchestrated the development of new m\u00e9tiers and conquered new markets worldwide with audacity and imagination. Faithful to its artisanal model and entrepreneurial spirit, the Maison creates objects based on unique craftsmanship, such as watchmaking.\r\n\r\nHerm\u00e8s began its integration strategy in 2006 by purchasing a 25% stake in Vaucher Manufacture Fleurier (movements). That same year, the leather workshop was inaugurated in La Montre Herm\u00e8s S.A. site in Br\u00fcgg, joining the assembly workshop established in 1978. Since then, Herm\u00e8s Horloger has acquired two historical partners, Nat\u00e9ber (dials) and Joseph Erard (cases), in 2012 and 2013, respectively, to create Les Ateliers d'Herm\u00e8s Horloger in 2017 in Le Noirmont. Today, Herm\u00e8s Horloger is a fully-fledged watch manufacturer with all skills mastered in-house and 100% Swiss production while remaining faithful to the strong values of the company and its authenticity.\r\n\r\nHerm\u00e8s creates objects shaped by artisans' hands to make them true companions for those who wear them: practical, functional, and stemming from uncompromising expertise, they radiate the lightness of the unexpected. They make everyday life their playground and each instant a uniquely special moment. For Herm\u00e8s, time is also an object. The house translates its inherent tension into a singular characteristic. Rather than measuring, ordering, and seeking to control it, Herm\u00e8s dares to explore another time designed to arouse emotions, open up interludes and create spaces for spontaneity and recreation.","link":"https:\/\/www.fratellowatches.com\/watchbrands\/hermes\/","name":"Herm\u00e8s","slug":"hermes","taxonomy":"watchbrands","parent":0,"meta":{"brand_subtitle":"","brand_location":"","main_image_brand":{"ID":243044,"id":243044,"title":"Hermes H08 14","filename":"Hermes-H08-14.jpg","filesize":330935,"url":"https:\/\/static.fratello.com\/2022\/12\/Hermes-H08-14.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.fratellowatches.com\/hands-on-hermes-h08-blue-edition\/hermes-h08-14\/","alt":"Herm\u00e8s H08","author":"2687","description":"","caption":"","name":"hermes-h08-14","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":243036,"date":"2022-12-20 20:11:08","modified":"2022-12-20 20:11:23","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.fratellowatches.com\/wp\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1800,"height":1200,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/static.fratello.com\/2022\/12\/Hermes-H08-14.jpg","thumbnail-width":128,"thumbnail-height":85,"medium":"https:\/\/static.fratello.com\/2022\/12\/Hermes-H08-14.jpg","medium-width":1800,"medium-height":1200,"medium_large":"https:\/\/static.fratello.com\/2022\/12\/Hermes-H08-14.jpg","medium_large-width":1800,"medium_large-height":1200,"large":"https:\/\/static.fratello.com\/2022\/12\/Hermes-H08-14.jpg","large-width":1800,"large-height":1200,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/static.fratello.com\/2022\/12\/Hermes-H08-14-1536x1024.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":1024,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/static.fratello.com\/2022\/12\/Hermes-H08-14.jpg","2048x2048-width":1800,"2048x2048-height":1200}},"highlights_brand":[{"year":"1837","highlight":"Thierry Herm\u00e8s, a harness-maker, and saddler, opens a workshop in Paris, creating the Herm\u00e8s Maison"},{"year":"1912","highlight":"Jacqueline Herm\u00e8s is photographed wearing a \u201cPorte-oignon\u201d bracelet strap crafted by her father, \u00c9mile Herm\u00e8s."},{"year":"1928","highlight":"Herm\u00e8s introduces the Ermeto watch, the first watch bearing the Herm\u00e8s signature, at 24, Faubourg Saint-Honor\u00e9."},{"year":"1920","highlight":"For over 40 years, Herm\u00e8s creates \u201cguardians of time\u201d in cooperation with the greatest names in Swiss watchmaking."},{"year":"1978","highlight":"Jean-Louis Dumas creates La Montre Herm\u00e8s S.A. in Bienne, Switzerland.
