DESCRIPTION

  • INSPIRATION AUTOMATIC MOON PHASE

    CELESTIAL MECHANICS

    Inspired by the first models created in the 1950s by the Michel Herbelin French watchmaking studio, the Inspiration Automatic vies to be the most elegant with its refashioned classicism. The ultimate city watch, it makes its debut today adorned with a most poetic watch complication. Indicating the moon phase at 6 o’clock, this limited edition of 500 numbered timepieces comes with a hand-applied patina leather strap, thus perfecting the timeless nature of this new “Made in France” timepiece.

    IN PHASE WITH THE MOON

    Since 2020, the third Herbelin generation has shown a true willingness to incorporate more watch complica- tions into the French brand’s timepieces. “Our ambition is to make beautifully made mechanical timepieces more accessible to as many watch lovers as possible, all while conserving a competitive price-quality ratio,” explains Maxime Herbelin, the founder’s grandson and Associ- ate Marketing Director. “The Inspiration Automatic Moon Phase is an excellent example. This is the first time that a Michel Herbelin automatic watch has included a moon phase indicator. The “fifties” elegance of this timepiece goes perfectly with this complication,” states Mathieu Herbelin, the founder’s grandson and Associate Creative Director.

    At one time, the sun and the moon were the only indica- tors that humans had to mark the seasons, months, and days. It is thus logical that the moon became the pre- ferred celestial body of watchmakers. In keeping with this tradition, Michel Herbelin’s new watchmaking cre- ation draws one’s gaze to the aperture at 6 o’clock featur- ing a moon phase indicator. Presented on a lacquered midnight blue disk punctuated with stars in a purposeful- ly minimalist style, it reflects an accurate image of each stage of the moon’s metamorphosis.

    Very easily adjusted with the fluted spherical crown adorned with a blue spinel cabochon, this watch function is time-regulated by the date aperture at 3 o’clock.

    BETWEEN ELEGANCE AND TRADITION

    This Inspiration Automatic Moon Phase model features completely polished surfaces and a 40 mm diameter 316L stainless steel case. Prolonged by discreet tapered horns, the round case middle highlights a convex dial encircled with a delicate bezel. Protected by a domed sapphire crystal to accentuate its vin- tage spirit, the three delicately curved dagger-shaped hands enliven the silvered back that shimmers in the changing light thanks to its brushed sunray finish. With its sober, understated colour, it tells the time accurately thanks to the clear layout of the motion work and rhodium-plated anthracite markers.

    All while remaining faithful to the spirit of the Inspiration collection, this limited edition stands out on its own thanks its new brown leather strap, which was crafted by a French workshop that respects traditional know-how. After a vegetable tanning, it is covered by hand with several successive layers of patina, which lends the strap a unique appearance that completes the timeless spirit of the watch

    A LIMITED EDITION “MADE IN FRANCE”

    This new timepiece unveiled by the Michel Herbelin French watchmaking studio possesses a Swiss-made self-winding mechanical movement with proven reliability: the Sellita SW 280. Incorporating 26 jewels and oscillating at 28,800 beats per hour, it benefits from a comfortable 41-hour power reserve. Purists will appreciate the transparent case back revealing the movement’s gears, including the “Michel Herbelin” engraved oscillating weight.

    Made in France for having been designed, assembled, adjusted, and inspected at the Michel Herbelin workshops in the Jura mountains of the Franche-Comté region, the Inspiration Automatic Moon Phase has inherited the traditional French watchmaking savoir-faire passed down from father to son for nearly 75 years. Equally combining poetry and functionality, this limited-edition of 500 timepieces will be available for sale starting in November 2021.

    ABOUT MICHEL HERBELIN . . .

    In the last century, Michel Herbelin founded his eponymous brand as an independent family-owned traditional French watchma- king company in Charquemont, in the region of Haut-Doubs near the Swiss border. Set in the heart of the manufacturing region of Fine Watchmaking – close to its main suppliers to ensure absolute control over production – the company has its own design studio within the workshops where watches are assembled. Beautifully made, in a price range from €300 to €3,000, Michel Herbelin watches are exclusively equipped with Swiss movements. In 2019, annual production reached 85,000 watches, with distribution through 3,000 points of sale across 50 countries. Heir to a watchmaking tradition stretching back over 70 years, this Jura brand is spurred on by the passion of a family that has seen three generations take up the craft since 1947. Managing the company started by his father since 2010, Pierre-Michel Herbelin entrusted it to four young men in 2020, including the founder’s grandsons Maxime and Mathieu Herbelin and two close members of the «Herbelin family»: Cédric Gomez-Montiel and Benjamin Theurillat.
