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 is the Hermès Clipper 24mm Ref. CL3.210 watch? A: It’s a vintage, Swiss‑made Hermès ladies’ watch in stainless steel with a petite 24mm case, a white dial with Arabic numerals, and a date window. Elegant and versatile, it suits everyday wear and dressier occasions. This piece fits wrists up to approximately 15cm and is delivered with a certificate and booklet as stated.
Q: Which movement does it use, and how long will the battery last? A: CL3.210 models are commonly fitted with a Swiss quartz movement featuring a date. Typical battery life is around 2–3 years depending on use and storage. Many similar Swiss quartz movements take a 1.55V silver‑oxide cell (e.g., 377/SR626SW), but please have a professional confirm the exact battery type for this specific watch.
Q: How do I set the time and date on this quartz watch? A: Pull the crown gently to the first click to quickset the date, and to the second click to set the time. Turn the hands clockwise or anti‑clockwise to the correct time. Avoid changing the date between roughly 8pm and 2am. When finished, push the crown back in firmly to help maintain light moisture resistance.
Q: Is it water‑resistant, and can I wear it in the rain or swim with it? A: As a vintage piece, water resistance cannot be guaranteed without recent servicing and pressure testing. Treat it as splash‑resistant at best and avoid showering, swimming or submersion. If light moisture resistance is desired, have the gaskets inspected/replaced by an authorised watchmaker and keep the crown fully pressed in.
Q: Will it fit my wrist, and can the bracelet be resized? A: It fits a wrist of approximately 15cm or smaller. The stainless‑steel bracelet can usually be resized by adding or removing links. Adding length may require sourcing compatible genuine Hermès links, which can be subject to availability. Share your wrist measurement and we’ll advise sizing options.
Q: What type of crystal does it use? A: Many Hermès Clipper models feature a scratch‑resistant sapphire crystal. If you’d like us to confirm the crystal type on this specific watch, please contact us and we’ll verify it for you.
Q: What makes the Clipper design distinctive? A: Inspired by nautical aesthetics, the Clipper typically features a rounded case and a clean, legible dial with Arabic numerals, paired with a sporty‑elegant steel bracelet. The restrained proportions of the 24mm case make it a refined, jewellery‑like everyday companion.
Q: What accuracy and servicing should I expect from a quartz Hermès watch? A: A healthy Swiss quartz movement typically runs within ±15 seconds per month. Replace the battery every 2–3 years, and have the seals/gaskets checked if moisture resistance matters. A routine movement check/service every 5–10 years is sensible, or sooner if you notice issues such as stopping or condensation.
Q: Is it authentic, and what warranty and shipping do you offer? A: A Retro Tale rigorously authenticates every item and guarantees 100% originality. This watch is delivered with a certificate and booklet as stated. All watches include a 12‑month movement guarantee. We offer free, fully insured DHL shipping, a 14‑day return policy, and 0% customs fees for EU buyers; contact us for any specific delivery or warranty questions.
Q: Can you confirm the production year and reference details? A: The reference is CL3.210 and the serial noted is 894135, with an approximate production year of ca. 2010. Hermès does not publish a public serial‑year chart; we can provide additional photos and verify details for this exact piece on request.
