According to the French house, the Hermès pyramid stud was first used on belts in the 1930s. It then served as inspiration for the legendary Collier de Chien (translation: dog collar) bracelet, before ultimately becoming the Medore watch in 1993, designed by Philippe Mouquet. Here’s the most recent version, complete with a secret cover protecting the hours and minutes and revealing them at the touch of a 3 o’clock-placed button.
