Hermès Cape Cod crépuscule

In 1991, the Cape Cod watch was born beneath the bold pencil strokes of Henri d'Origny. With its "square in a rectangle” case formed by two "anchor chain" half-links, Cape Cod now welcomes a dial with a singular aesthetic uniting and revealing two ordinarily distinct worlds.

In 2018, Hermès initiated a meeting with the Neuchâtel-based Swiss Center for Electronics and Microtechnology (CSEM) as part of its search for a technological innovation that would be dedicated to creativity. This gave rise to a project for a dial made from a silicon wafer, which was to feature the intimate and refined "Crépuscule" (dusk) motif by designer-graphic artist Thanh-Phong Lê.
