With this retro look and finesse of every details, Inspiration 1947 draws from the lines of the mythical case created by Michel HERBELIN himself, back in the 50s.
This Michel Herbelin watch is fitted with a manually wound mechanical movement, whose workings can be admired through its transparent caseback. Its softly rounded 40 mm diameter case, yellow gold PVD, provides a distinctly vintage feel. The silvered white and curved dial sets off its gilded hands and hour markers, giving this watch a refined elegance.
With a discreet date aperture set at three o’clock, the dial gains a dynamic energy from the small seconds counter that brings a contemporary touch to the whole.
This piece is finished with a ribbed, ball-shaped crown set with a black cabochon, and paired with an alligator-printed brown leather strap. A gem of watchmaking art, the Inspiration watch was designed and assembled in France at the Michel Herbelin studios.
