Hermès Arceau is watching as the Belles du Mexique dance

Although fashion houses and watches haven't always been compatible, brands like Gucci, Louis Vuitton, and Hermès are reviving the category with their innovations.

As per investment bank Morgan Stanley, Hermès in particular has transformed a side project into a successful business, generating CHF 521 million in watch sales last year.

That surpasses the combined revenue of the watch companies of Breguet, Bulgari, Chopard, and Blancpain.

Hermès's success has largely been attributed to its ability to combine its distinctive design elements with respectable horology and fair prices.

The Arceau Belles du Mexique watch, which debuted on a Hermès silk scarf in 2017, is a new example this week. It features a design based on traditional Mexican dancers.

Hand painted disks that spin on either an orange or pink dial replicate the vibrant design.

There is a ring of twenty-three diamonds in the center of every dial. The bezels are adorned with an additional 82 diamonds for sparkle.

Both have 38 mm white gold cases and are paired with dial-color-coordinating alligator straps.

The Hermès H1912 time-only movement manufactured by the manufacturer powers them.
