My Dream – hermes Gondolo Ref.4949
“No one owns a hermes watch. Just keep it for the next generation.” It is a famous slogan of hermes. The symbol of noble watch enthusiasts is owning a hermes watch. The noble artistic charm and expensive materials together build its enduring brand effect. Spending 8 years in producing a watch, what a nice explanation of quality awareness.
Delicate watches of Patek Phileppe are always dreams of many people. Here I want to introduce a tonneau watch of this brand, which I long for.
hermes Gondolo Ref.4949
“Time is precious” just expresses the theme of this lady watch. The diamonds are showed under the sapphire crystal surface with brilliance, rather than inlaid in the external watch case in a general way. The diamonds frame a new world, shing on the exciting parts of life. Besides, the lateral part of watch case is decorated with braid-like relief pattern. Gondolo Ref.4949 displays exquisite designs in every detail, so it is considered as a model of high-quality watch.
The Production of the Case Where Subtlety Lies
The braid-like decorative pattern is enchantingly beautiful. It is not made by milling or carving, but inprinting during the cooling process when platinum transfers into a elegant watch case. This process is very complex, and hermes is one of the few watchmakers which still use this traditional technique.
However, after the molding process, there are still several steps of manual processing procedures, including grinding and polishing in order to reveal the unparalleled extraordinary qualities of hermes watches. The last step of making the case is that craftsman carefully sandblasts the relief pattern for a outstanding matte finish.
Sparkling Diamonds Kindle Memorial Moments
Two platinum pointers give perfect interpretation of time on the champagne dial. In both positions of 12 o’clock and 6 o’clock were placed 18K white gold Roman numerals. Two lines of flawless Wesselton diamonds are inlaid under the crystal surface, weighing about 0.18 carat. The 18K white gold crown is also decorated with 14 top Wesselton diamonds, weighing about 0.07 carat. The watch strap is covered by chocolate-brown silk, with a 18K white gold pin buckle.
Exquisite Movement Tells Time Accurately
Caliber E 19 quartz movement achieves the ideal performance with its battery life of at least two years. The movement is completed by hermes in strict and precise procedures. It consists of 80 independent components and another 7 jewels, powered by quratz. The stepper motor is very compact, driving the hour hand, minute hand and date display disk.
