As long as they have some non-gaudy single tour's I'm down for a SS today when orders open.

No pricing on titanium yet. Wonder if those slot above/below the Hermes...

Wasn't expecting to have to make a decision on which watch to get today...Hermes SBSS or just SS...too much pressure...LOL.


Yes this!!!! Mixed feelings about being able to order tonight. I might order both and return one, hmm.

I always am drawn to the SBSS but then end up going with something else. Was definitely going back to Hermes this year and just expected to have the SS. I did the gold last year, and I am not enjoying the color as much as I thought. I am worried that will happed with the space black as well.

I've considered going to a different finish every time but most of the nicer bands are SS or have SS lugs so I've stuck with it. Have mismatched lugs. Plus it matches my silver XS Max.

Now if they offered a gold Hermes... I may be tempted.

I’ll prob stick with SS, I’ve the SS link bracelet from my Series 2 which I wear 75% of the time. Space Black will render it useless, which would be a shame as it’s my favourite band by far.

The band issue with the non-SS watches really bothered me with the gold watch. SS is definitely the most versatile.

I prefer the SS. I know it is durable and can be polished if necessary. Not sure about the black Hermes though... Also torn with the Ceramic in white. Loved that from the S2/3.

When does preorder start? I thought I would have a few days to decide which model to get...

I'm getting one or may two ha! Also looking forward to seeing the new bands.
What is the main selling point of the series 5 that makes you want to upgrade? Is the screen of the series 5 higher resolution? I could care less about “Always On” but is the screen better quality?

I like the always on display as well as the Ceramic case. I might just buy new Hermes bands. Sounds like you can mix and match this year at time of purchase.

If you can afford a $1400 smartwatch you can afford to upgrade yearly, whether you want to is up to you. If I had a S4 I'd keep it, FWIW.

Where did you see that?

Also sort of bummed they discontinued that Etoupe grayish leather band. If anyone wants to swap for a fauve (never worn!) let me know!
