An elegant choice for evening dinners and smart events, this vintage Hermès Clipper Ref.

Powered by quartz for reliable timekeeping, it transitions effortlessly from office hours to cocktails.
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 is the Hermès Clipper 24mm Ref. CP1.222 Diamond Watch? A: It’s a Swiss‑made ladies’ quartz timepiece with a petite 24mm case, two‑tone stainless steel and gold‑plated accents, a diamond‑set bezel and a white mother‑of‑pearl dial. This example is a vintage piece around 2010, blending refined sparkle with everyday reliability.
Q: Is it quartz or automatic, and how accurate is it? A: This Clipper uses a Swiss quartz movement, prized for dependable accuracy and low maintenance. Typical battery life is around 2–3 years depending on use and storage. As with any vintage watch, performance can vary with age and service history; periodic checks by an authorised watchmaker are recommended.
Q: How do I set the time (and date, if applicable)? A: For time‑only versions, gently pull the crown out to the setting position, turn to the correct time, then push it back in firmly. If your Clipper variant includes a date, avoid changing the date between roughly 8pm and 2am to protect the mechanism. If you’re unsure which version this piece is, contact us and we’ll confirm.
Q: Is it water‑resistant and can I swim with it? A: Many Clipper models were rated for everyday splash resistance when new, but water resistance on vintage watches cannot be guaranteed without recent gasket replacement and pressure testing. We recommend avoiding swimming, showering or submersion unless the watch has been professionally re‑sealed and tested. Always keep the crown fully pushed in.
Q: Will it fit my wrist, and can the bracelet be resized? A: This watch fits wrists up to approximately 16cm. The bracelet can usually be resized by adding or removing links. We can size it for you before dispatch, and additional links may be sourced subject to availability—contact us with your wrist measurement for guidance.
Q: Are the diamonds and gold accents original, and is the gold solid? A: The bezel is diamond‑set in the Hermès style for this reference, and the watch features two‑tone stainless steel with gold‑plated hardware (not solid gold). A Retro Tale authenticates all components; if you’d like details such as diamond count or further close‑ups, we’re happy to provide them.
Q: What type of crystal does the Clipper use? A: Many Hermès Clipper models are fitted with a scratch‑resistant sapphire crystal, though specifics can vary by reference. If you’d like us to confirm the crystal type on this exact watch, please contact us and we’ll verify it for you.
Q: Which battery does it take and where should I replace it? A: Swiss quartz movements typically use a 1.55V silver‑oxide cell; the exact type should be confirmed by a professional during replacement. We recommend having an authorised watchmaker change the battery, inspect the gaskets and perform a pressure test if light water resistance is desired.
Q: How should I care for the mother‑of‑pearl dial, diamonds and gold‑plated parts? A: Wipe the watch with a soft, dry microfibre cloth after wear. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners, abrasives, solvents, perfumes and strong chemicals. Mother‑of‑pearl and plating can be sensitive to harsh cleaning and knocks—handle with care and avoid impacts to the diamond bezel. Have seals checked periodically, especially after battery changes.
Q: What is included, and what are your warranty and shipping terms? A: This listing is delivered with no accessories unless otherwise stated. A Retro Tale guarantees 100% authenticity and provides a 12‑month movement warranty on all watches. We offer free, fully insured DHL shipping, a 14‑day return policy, and 0% customs fees for EU buyers. Contact us for any specific delivery or warranty questions.
Q: Can you verify the reference, serial and year for peace of mind? A: Yes. We professionally authenticate every item and can share additional photos and confirm reference, serial and movement details on request. This piece is Swiss‑made and dated circa 2010; we’re happy to verify any specifics you’d like to confirm.
