The Michel Herbelin Fil 17207/B11 redefines understated elegance with its distinctive cushion-square case and bangle-style bracelet. Measuring a delicate 24mm across and just 5.8mm thick, this timepiece is crafted from 316L stainless steel and features a sunburst silver dial beneath scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. The Swiss-made Ronda 751 quartz movement ensures precision timekeeping in a refined, jewellery-inspired silhouette that transitions seamlessly from boardroom to evening wear.
At Cassim & Co., we are proud to be an authorised retailer for MICHEL HERBELIN watches, offering the full protection of the brand's 2-year international warranty with every purchase. This French manufacture has been crafting timepieces since 1947, and the Fil collection represents their mastery of minimalist design and Swiss precision. The integrated bangle construction eliminates traditional lugs, creating a continuous flow from case to bracelet that sits beautifully on the wrist.
The Fil 17207/B11 is water-resistant to 3 bar (30 metres), making it suitable for daily wear and resistance to splashes. The silver sunburst dial features applied indices at 12, 3, 6, and 9 o'clock, while the dauphine hands provide crisp legibility. Weighing just 18 grams, this timepiece offers the aesthetic impact of fine jewellery with the functional reliability of Swiss horology. The polished stainless steel finish catches light beautifully, while the slim profile ensures it slides effortlessly beneath a cuff.
We invite you to experience this timepiece in person at our Mall of the South boutique in Johannesburg, where our team can assist with sizing and styling advice. Should you require any adjustments or maintenance, our watch servicing and repairs team provides comprehensive after-sales support, including battery replacements and bracelet adjustments.
