Hermès - Kelly Lock Watch - 没有保留价 - 女士 - 1990-1999

Introduction

The Hermes Kelly Lock Watch is one of the most iconic timepieces ever produced by the legendary Parisian maison. Inspired by the padlock closure of the famed Kelly handbag, this charming watch encapsulates the artistry, elegance, and unmistakable identity of Hermes. Worn as both a timepiece and a piece of jewellery, it remains a favourite among collectors who appreciate fashion-forward horology with deep brand heritage.

Historical & Collector Value

Hermes, established in 1837, initially crafted fine harnesses and leather goods before evolving into one of the world's most prestigious luxury houses. The Kelly Watch, introduced in the 1970s and gaining strong momentum through the 1990s, was directly inspired by the padlock of the Kelly bag - itself named after Grace Kelly. Its unique padlock-shaped case, ribbed gold-plated body, and slim leather strap make it instantly recognisable. Vintage Kelly Watches in this red leather configuration are particularly sought after by collectors, as red is one of the most emblematic Hermes colours. Owning this piece means owning a piece of Hermes' design legacy.
