Q: What is the Hermès Clipper 24mm ca 2010 (ref. CL4.210)? A: It’s a Swiss‑made stainless‑steel ladies’ watch with a compact 24mm case, a salmon‑coloured dial featuring a date display, a reliable quartz movement, and Hermès’ signature “H” link bracelet with a deployment clasp. Elegant and versatile, it suits day‑to‑evening wear.
Q: Is the movement quartz, and what battery life/accuracy should I expect? A: Yes—this Clipper uses a Swiss quartz movement. Typical battery life is around 2–3 years depending on use and storage. Quartz watches are generally accurate to within seconds per month. Keep it away from strong magnets and extreme temperatures. A professional should confirm the exact battery type for this specific watch; most take a 1.55V silver‑oxide cell.
Q: How do I set the time and date safely on a quartz Clipper? A: Gently pull the crown out. Position 1: quickset the date (if applicable). Position 2: set the time. Avoid changing the date between roughly 8pm and 2am to protect the mechanism. When finished, push the crown fully back in to ensure proper operation and moisture protection.
Q: Is it water‑resistant, and can I swim with it? A: Many Clipper models were originally designed with practical water resistance, but for vintage/pre‑owned watches water resistance cannot be guaranteed without recent gasket replacement and pressure testing. We recommend avoiding swimming or showering unless the watch has been professionally re‑sealed and tested. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any exposure to moisture.
Q: Will the bracelet fit my wrist, and can it be resized? A: This piece fits a wrist up to approximately 16cm as listed. “H” link bracelets can typically be resized by adding or removing links. Additional links may be sourced subject to availability and may incur a fee. Contact us with your wrist measurement for guidance on sizing.
Q: What crystal does the Clipper use—will it scratch easily? A: Many Hermès Clipper models from this era use a scratch‑resistant sapphire crystal. Specifics can vary by reference; we can confirm the crystal type on this exact piece upon request. Even sapphire can chip with hard knocks, so avoid impacts and abrasive surfaces.
Q: Can I swap the bracelet for a leather strap? A: The Clipper’s bracelet is integrated to the case design. Strap conversions may require specific end‑links or Hermès‑compatible parts to fit correctly. We’re happy to advise on compatible options and professional fitting.
Q: Is the 24mm size unisex, and how does it wear? A: 24mm is a petite, refined size traditionally marketed as a ladies’ watch. It suits small wrists and those who prefer a discreet, elegant profile. Style is personal—some collectors enjoy compact vintage sizes regardless of gender.
Q: What service and care do you recommend for a quartz Hermès Clipper? A: Replace the battery every 2–3 years or when the watch stops, and have gaskets checked or replaced periodically. A routine full service every 5–10 years is advisable, or sooner if you notice condensation, erratic running or reduced water resistance. Wipe the watch with a soft microfibre cloth after wear and avoid chemicals, perfumes and extreme heat.
Q: What’s included, and how do you guarantee authenticity? A: This listing is delivered with no accessories unless otherwise stated. A Retro Tale professionally authenticates every item and guarantees 100% originality. All watches come with a 12‑month movement warranty. We offer free, fully insured DHL shipping, a 14‑day return policy, and 0% customs fees for EU buyers.
