Original water resistance 3 bar. Horological context The Nantucket was introduced by Hermès in 1991, designed by Henri d'Origny — the maison's iconoclastic designer, also behind the Arceau and the Cape Cod. Conceived as the rectangular companion to the latter, it adopts a singular architecture, a "rectangle within a rectangle" formed by half-links enclosing the case. This geometry is directly inspired by the Chaîne d'ancre bracelet, a motif imagined by Robert Dumas in 1938 during a stay on the Normandy coast and since become one of the maison's defining emblems. The Nantucket transposes this maritime origin into watchmaking: the anchor chain shapes the silhouette, and the very typography of the numerals carries its imprint. Thirty-five years after its launch, the Nantucket remains a Hermès catalogue classic, available in steel, in gold, and across a wide range of dials and straps. Character Lady variant of the Nantucket in 32 × 17 mm, steel on étoupe leather with white saddle stitching. New, unworn watch, acquired in exchange for a vintage piece. Delivered with its original box, invoice and Hermès international warranty, and Contre-Temps two-year warranty.
