The H08’s softened-square case and orange rubber strap give a monopusher chronograph an unusually graphic identity.

What to know
The Hermès H08 Chronographe uses orange sparingly but decisively. A bright rubber strap sets off its dark carbon-fibre composite case and grained dial, while a titanium bezel negotiates the collection’s mixture of circular and softened-square forms. The result is a sports watch whose colour is part of its architecture, not simply a change of dial paint.
Hermès lists reference W403130WW00 with a 41mm case width and 45mm lug-to-lug height. Its self-winding manufacture H1837 movement drives a monopusher chronograph, actuated through the crown, with a 46-hour power reserve. A sapphire back reveals the movement; water resistance is rated to 10 bar. CNA Luxury included this exact orange-strap configuration in its 28 October 2026 survey of orange watches. The model itself is not presented here as a new 2026 launch.
