Michel Herbelin Art Deco Quartz 17478AP22GD, Silver with Camel Leather Strap for Women

Michel Herbelin Art Deco Quartz 17478AP22GD – A brushed silver finish with modern elegance

In the subdued shadows of 1920s Parisian salons, where Art Deco redefined luxury with boldness and pure geometry, lies the refined essence of the Art Deco Quartz 17478AP22GD. Drawing inspiration from Michel Herbelin’s early creations, this model is understated and elegant, adding a touch of modernity to the vertically brushed silver dial. As the heir to the brand’s Jura craftsmanship dating back to 1947, this ladies’ watch transcends the decades like a geometric motif etched into history. Its rectangular 20.3 x 24.4 mm case, crafted from polished 316L stainless steel with clean lines and a 16 mm lug-to-lug width, evokes the iconic silhouette of a Deco jewel: bold, minimalist, ready to capture life’s fleeting moments with a delicacy that hugs the feminine wrist like a call to timeless sophistication.

At the center of this geometric timepiece, a vertical brushed silver dial displays a subtle satin finish, reminiscent of the reflections of an urban skyline in subdued light, punctuated by rhodium-plated hour markers and hands that trace their path with poetic precision—hours and minutes only, for absolute purity without a superfluous date display. Powered by a Swiss quartz movement, Caliber 751 (5½ lignes), it offers unwavering reliability and a serene ticking that marks the passage of social evenings or moments of contemplation, paying homage to the fierce independence of the House of Herbelin, which has been based in Charquemont since 1947.

An embrace of camel-colored leather, weathered by the flames of Art Deco

The genuine camel-colored leather strap, hand-stitched with artisanal precision, wraps around the wrist like the curves of an Art Deco piece of furniture—supple, warm, and weighing just 22 g for a light yet sophisticated presence. This piece for women (or for the refined soul who transcends gender norms) combines everyday comfort with urban durability, featuring a traditional pin buckle for a secure and intimate fit. Water-resistant to 50 m, it withstands Parisian downpours, champagne splashes, or quick showers, staying true to the Art Deco spirit of the collection. The domed, anti-reflective sapphire crystal adds a touch of artisanal authenticity. Crafted in Charquemont, the Franche-Comté cradle of French watchmaking, it bears the mark of a passionate, 100% French, and independent family, where every silver-brushed finish and every camel-colored stitch whispers a story of geometry and heritage.
