Introduction The Hermes Kelly Watch is one of the most iconic and instantly recognisable timepieces ever produced by the legendary Parisian Maison. Inspired by the padlock of the world-famous Kelly bag, this watch beautifully translates Hermes' saddlery heritage into a wearable jewel. With its gold-plated padlock-shaped case and vibrant green leather strap, this example embodies the timeless elegance and playful sophistication that define Hermes. Historical & Collector Value First introduced in the 1970s and popularised throughout the 1990s, the Kelly Watch has become a cult favourite among collectors of vintage Hermes. The padlock design pays direct homage to the Kelly handbag, itself named after Grace Kelly, making this watch a true piece of fashion history. Vintage examples in vivid Courchevel-style green leather are particularly sought after, as green remains one of the most emblematic Hermes colours. Complete sets with the original box, pouch, booklet, and accessories - as offered here - are increasingly rare on the secondary market and highly desirable to collectors.
