The Clipper, an iconic watch from the House of Hermès


A flagship model of the House of Hermès, the Clipper watch was imagined by Henry d'Origny in 1981. The famous designer then had the idea of designing a model paying tribute to the elegant three-masted sailing ships characteristic of the second half of the 19th century nicknamed "clippers". With the Clipper, Hermès' ambition was to create a watch with a sporty design that evoked the world of the sea, but also adventure and the great discoveries of contemporary history, when clippers were used to transport goods along the tea and cotton trade routes or during the gold rush. The success was immediate and the model quickly acquired a mythical aura among diving watch enthusiasts. For men and women, the collection is also distinguished by its remarkable technical performance.

Clipper Hermès: a collection enriched with several successful models


The success of the original 1981 Clipper spawned the creation of several series and collections in the 2010s, including the Clipper Sport and Chronograph Clipper families. The 2010 Clipper line is particularly innovative: this model, with its rounded shapes that evoke the porthole of the famous sailing ship, now features a 44-millimeter case in titanium, a material that is lighter and more resistant than steel. On the technical side, this Clipper 2010 is powered by a mechanical self-winding chronograph movement, a marvel of precision and reliability. Available in several sizes (for men and women), the series is a continuation of the original collection. The Clipper collection is now available in a wide range of variations: rubber straps (orange, matte black, brown), steel watches, steel and yellow gold, steel and rose gold, titanium, with setting and engraving, etc. Find different models of used Clipper watches on our online store.
