A refined choice for weekday meetings or elegant dinners, this vintage Hermès Clipper 24mm brings understated polish to any outfit. Its petite, two‑tone look slips neatly under a cuff, making it ideal from office hours to weekend city strolls.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What movement powers this Hermès Clipper 24mm (ref. CL4.220)? A: This model is powered by a Swiss quartz movement. Many CL4.220 examples house the ETA 956.112 with a date display, prized for accuracy and low maintenance.
Q: Is the watch water‑resistant? A: Period specifications for 24 mm Clipper models indicate around 30 metres water resistance when new. As this is a 1996 vintage watch, water resistance cannot be guaranteed without a recent pressure test—treat it as splash‑resistant only and avoid swimming or showering unless the seals have been replaced and the watch has passed a pressure test.
Q: What crystal does it use and how durable is it? A: Many 24 mm Clipper references from this era feature a sapphire crystal, which is highly scratch‑resistant for daily wear. Avoid hard knocks to protect the crystal and bezel.
Q: What are the case size and wrist fit? A: The case measures 24 mm and wears as a refined, petite size. The H‑link bracelet on this piece currently fits a 15 cm wrist or smaller, as noted in the product information.
Q: Can the bracelet be resized or extended? A: Yes. A competent jeweller or watchmaker can remove H‑links to make it smaller. To make it larger you may need additional period‑correct links; availability varies on the secondary market and extra links are not included unless specifically listed under product information.
Q: How often will the battery need replacing and what type does it use? A: Typical battery life for this movement is about 2–4 years. If the watch is fitted with the ETA 956.112, it uses a 364 (SR621SW) cell. Have batteries replaced by a professional and avoid leaving a depleted battery in the watch to prevent leakage and movement damage.
Q: Does it have a date function and how is it set? A: Yes, there is a date window at 3 o’clock. The date is set via the crown’s first position on quartz models. If you are unsure or the crown feels stiff, we recommend having a watchmaker set it to avoid strain on a vintage mechanism.
Q: What materials are used and how should I care for them? A: The watch is two‑tone, combining stainless steel with gold‑plated accents. To preserve the finish, avoid abrasive cloths or polishing compounds; simply wipe with a soft, dry cloth and keep it away from perfumes, solvents and prolonged moisture.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Included items are listed under the product information on this page. For this piece, the original box is included.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this watch? A: Every item is vetted by our in‑house specialists using multi‑point checks on materials, dial and print, movement, case and bracelet construction, and stamps/serials. We stand behind the authenticity of all items and can share additional photos or details on request.
