This vintage Hermès Heure H 17mm watch in stainless steel brings a refined, jewellery-like touch to everyday wear or elegant evening occasions. In very good condition, it features the iconic H-shaped case, a stainless steel H-link bracelet and a white guilloché dial with Arabic numerals, making it a timeless choice for understated styling.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What size is this Hermès H watch, and how does it wear? A: This listing is the 17 mm version of the Hermès Heure H, which is a very petite, jewellery-like size. It suits those who prefer a refined, discreet watch rather than a larger statement style, and this particular bracelet is currently sized to fit a 15 cm wrist or smaller.
Q: Will it fit my wrist? A: As listed, the bracelet fits a wrist of approximately 15 cm or smaller. If your wrist is larger, you may need additional links, and these are not noted as included in the product information for this piece.
Q: Is the Hermès HH1.110 a quartz or automatic watch? A: The HH1.110 reference is generally associated with a quartz movement, so it is battery-powered and does not require manual winding like a mechanical watch.
Q: What are the main features of this watch? A: This piece features a stainless steel H-shaped case, a stainless steel H-link bracelet, a white guilloché dial with Arabic numerals, and a folding clasp closure. It is also Swiss-made, in keeping with Hermès watch production.
Q: Is this watch water resistant? A: Heure H models in this family are commonly rated to around 3 bar, which is suitable for light splashes only. As this is a vintage pre-owned watch, it is best treated with extra care and kept away from swimming, showering, and prolonged contact with water unless it has been recently pressure-tested.
Q: What condition is this watch in? A: The watch is listed in very good external and internal condition. Please note that there are scratches on the case and bracelet, which is consistent with normal wear on a vintage stainless steel watch.
Q: Does it come with the original box, papers, or spare links? A: The current product information does not list any additional items as included. If original box, papers, or extra bracelet links are important to you, it is safest to assume they are not included unless confirmed separately.
Q: Can the bracelet be resized? A: A watchmaker can usually shorten a metal bracelet if needed, but increasing the size normally requires extra links. Since this watch is currently sized for a 15 cm wrist or smaller and no extra links are noted in the product information, buyers with larger wrists should check sizing carefully before purchase.
Q: How should I care for a vintage Hermès quartz watch? A: Wipe it gently with a soft dry cloth and avoid heavy knocks, magnetism, heat, and moisture. Hermès also recommends regular servicing for quartz watches, and it is best not to leave a flat battery inside the watch for too long, as this can risk damage over time.
Q: Why is the Heure H considered an iconic Hermès watch? A: The Heure H is known for its distinctive case shaped like the Hermès “H”, giving it an instantly recognisable look. It is one of the brand’s signature watch designs and is especially popular with buyers seeking a classic fashion-house timepiece with a clean, elegant profile.
