We went to the watch event hoping to see the monopusher (chronograph), but were told it will be shown next year.

We did see the new H08 in green with the glass fiber composite case and polished black ceramic bezel. The difference from last year ones are that the case were in titanium.

An article below about the new H08.

Hi :)
Does anybody still own the Cape Cod Tonneau, perhaps double tour?
There are two sizes, right? Is the small one, the one with the Ref. CT1.210?
I would love to see modelpics :)

Can anyone tell me about the quality of the movement of these watches? I’m considering a diamond Heures H watch that’s available preloved. There seems to be little information online other than they’re made in Switzerland and quartz movement. How do they compare to say Rolex or Cartier? Are they reliable time pieces? Or are they just overpriced fashion watches?

I have two cape Cod one Quartz and one Automatic.
The Automatic is about 10 years old and the Quartz newer perhaps 5 years (I'd need to check my paperwork to give exact dates)
I've found them to be very reliable, The Automatic gains about 10 mins a month which I prefer to my vintage Rolex which despite full service always seems to loose time.
I wouldn't hesitate to buy another and indeed I have my eye on the Gallop.

I have my eye on the gallop too. Pave diamond face with alligator strap. I want the smaller version some day for my small wrist. <3

To be honest with you, it depends if the movement is Quartz or Mechanical. It doesn't matter much for Quartz movements since most companies use Swiss-certified movements. For the mechanical movements, they used to use some cheaper movements. Still, in the past couple of years, Hermes invested a lot in Vaucher movement-making company, which now produces all their movements and they are on par with high-end watch brands.

I have a diamond Cape Cod Quartz watch which is about 5 years old. I bought it new at FSH. It's always run perfectly. I have yet to change the battery, so it seems to last a long time.
