Cape Cod Jumbo quartz Double Tour Strap
pre owned

It embodies a very particular vision of French luxury — one that blends discretion, elegance, and artisanal heritage. The Hermès Cape Cod Grand Modèle Quartz, reference CC1.810, with its iconic double tour strap, is not just a timepiece: it is a signature. Originally designed in 1991 by Henri d'Origny, the Cape Cod was born from a deliberate paradox — placing a square inside a rectangle. This subtle play of geometry, paired with Hermès’ equestrian universe, gave rise to a watch with a unique silhouette, instantly recognizable. The model presented here, dating from 2023, continues this tradition of graphic refinement and stylistic innovation in its Grand Modèle quartz version, made for a confident, modern wrist.

Its polished stainless steel case, measuring 29 x 29 mm, stands out with lugs inspired by the "Chaîne d’ancre" link — a signature Hermès motif. The opaline silver dial features elongated stylized numerals that add a touch of both vintage charm and modern elegance. Protected by a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, the dial remains refined yet easy to read. Inside, a high-precision Swiss quartz movement ensures impeccable timekeeping with no need for regular winding or adjustment. The double tour strap, crafted in Gold Swift calf leather, is handmade in Hermès’ own workshops, wrapping gracefully around the wrist like a piece of fine jewelry — a detail that has become an icon in itself.

The Cape Cod Grand Modèle is a versatile companion for daily wear. It complements both professional and casual outfits, seamlessly fitting into the lifestyle of women who appreciate objects that are both beautiful and functional. Its slim profile allows it to slip effortlessly under a blouse or blazer cuff, while still catching the eye with its understated originality. This is a watch chosen for its style, comfort, and the story it tells about the person wearing it: an eye for detail, a taste for timeless elegance, and a love of craftsmanship.

A symbol of French art de vivre, the Cape Cod has captivated watch lovers across the globe for over three decades — from Paris to Tokyo to New York. It speaks to those who understand that true luxury is lived, not flaunted. Choosing this pre-owned Hermès Cape Cod from Mostra means acquiring a recent, pristine watch, delivered with a Mostra luxury presentation box designed to showcase exceptional pieces. Each watch offered by Mostra is carefully selected, inspected, authenticated, and presented in a condition that honors its story.
