hermès frames time as theater at Watches and Wonders 2026 At Watches and Wonders Geneva 2026, Hermès frames time as a performative medium, staging its latest horological releases within a kinetic scenography by Jean-Simon Roch. Conceived as a mobile installation where watchmaking mechanics interact with theatrical machinery, the project positions movement as narrative. Within this shifting environment, the maison unveils three new skeleton timepieces : Hermès H08 Squelette, Arceau Samarcande, and Slim d’Hermès Squelette Lune, each exposing its inner workings like apertures into a hidden temporal world. Composer Pierre Ronin scores a soundscape that animates the scenography, transforming it into a vast string instrument. Together, the installation reflects how Hermès thinks about time: not as something to be measured or ordered, but as a space for emotion, spontaneity, and recreation. all images by Team WHAAAT!…
