Watch straps
A tale of craftsmanship with a dash of daring
Elegance and craftsmanship await you on this page! Time flies, and the watch straps file by.
Let's look back at the history of our watch straps
The adventure kicks off in 1912 when Émile Hermès, inspired by his horse-loving daughter, designs a clever strap to fasten her pocket watch to her wrist. In the wake of this innovation, the saddle maker leaps into a new era—one of watchmaking. It was at the heart of his workshop in Bienne, Switzerland, the birthplace of watchmaking expertise, that Hermès crafts his own watch straps.
With its intricate leatherwork, the dance of straps and buckles oscillating with the rhythm of saddle stitching, or the timeless elegance of the Cape Cod with its iconic double-wrap bracelet designed by Martin Margiela, Hermès watches break free and define their own era.

Consistently crafting the most elegant surprises, Hermès straps masterfully blend function with beauty.
Leather straps
Leather up! Sturdy Barénia, the grain of the Epsom or the colorful Swift, the leather and saddle craftsmanship brought together in the Watchmaking workshop creates straps with noble skins and colors that set the tone. From the initial cut that begins its transformation to the precise saddle stitching ensuring durability, the full-grain leather is readied for crafting. On the workbench, the artisan squares, edges, dyes the sides, and stitches the loops of a strap that will only become more refined with time.
Metal bracelets
What a brilliant idea, metal bracelets! Steel, titanium, and yellow, white, or rose gold are materials that reflect light and revive a touch of brilliance in style. Mastery of the integrated bracelet, seamlessly part of the watch, or the boldness of a detached design; sculpted mesh with a supple or robust feel; artful polished or satin finishes - these creations reflect a history of watchmaking expertise.
