Sometimes, all you want is a handsome, do-it-all, everyday watch that can perform admirably in a variety of situations. Something unfussy yet good-looking, sturdy yet elegant that won’t break the bank. And all the better if it’s from a respectable, well-established brand. The Hermès Clipper is one such watch. Launched in 1981, the Clipper has since launched several sub-collections — and though it’s not part of the current Hermès collection, this certainly hasn’t diminished its appeal. Housed in a 39mm stainless steel case with a ‘riveted’ bezel, a sapphire crystal, and a signed crown, it features a silvered dial with luminous hour markers; applied ‘Arabic’ indices; a lumed ‘sword’ handset; and a handy date window at 3 o’clock. Powered by the workhorse, Swiss-made Sellita SW300 automatic movement and paired to a brown leather strap with white contrast stitching, the excellently sized, sporty Clipper is an excellent choice for day-in, day-out wear. But don’t just take our word for it — come try it on for size and see for yourself!
