Hermès - Clipper - 没有保留价 - CL4.220 - 女士 - 1990-1999

Introduction

The Hermes Clipper is one of the Maison's most iconic timepieces, inspired by the world of nautical design and the porthole of a ship. Introduced in the early 1980s, the Clipper collection quickly became a symbol of Hermes' entry into serious Swiss watchmaking, combining Parisian elegance with maritime robustness. This particular two-tone ladies' reference exemplifies the refined balance between stainless steel and gold-plated finishes that made the Clipper a lasting favorite among collectors of vintage designer watches.

Historical & Collector Value

The Clipper series holds a special place in Hermes horology as the first watch fully designed and developed by the brand's own watchmaking division, La Montre Hermes, founded in 1978 in Bienne, Switzerland. The distinctive bezel with visible screws, echoing a ship's porthole, and the signature H-link bracelet make this model instantly recognizable. Early two-tone Clipper models such as this one are increasingly sought after by collectors who appreciate their unique blend of sportiness and luxury. As Hermes has discontinued several of the original Clipper variants, well-preserved examples like this represent both wearable heritage and steady collector value.
