Bought the Noir Swift Leather Single Tour for my black SS S4..... it’s friggin beautiful in the pictures.

I’m wondering how it will look with the new Ceramic.... the black Milanese loop looked awesome with my S3, kind of a Storm Trooper look.

Do the black lugs bother you? I like the nior but can’t bring myself to get over the mismatch. My OCD is strong I guess.

As a fellow Space Black Stainless owner, the black lugs and clasp of the Noir are the reason I am strongly considering buying it because it would be the only Hermes band that doesn't mismatch my case in those areas. :D

How long have you had the SBSS for?

How is it holding up? The only thing I worry about are scratches that can’t be polished out like the SS.

Mine is a Series 4 purchased shortly after launch and so far its in pristine condition, even with me clipping plastered walls and wooden furniture with it. My Series 0 (silver) Stainless Steel also held up quite well.

It would for other mismatches but not the black/white.

My S4 is fine after a year and I had an S0 that held up fine for two years. I’m going to keep the S4 primarily for when I’m asleep and when a solid back combo looks the best with what I’m wearing.

I’m getting the space black, as well. It’s advertised as a “limited edition,” so I don’t expect it next year. Apple and Hermès change the band selection annually, apart from some stalwarts like the Fauve Barenia and Feu Epsom.
Yeah. Although the noir in silver hardware would be perfect.

Yeah, and I have not seen any on eBay etc. Must have been pretty rare.

(Here's to next year!)

yeah with hermes bands i find it best just to get it when its out its a gamble to try to get it cheaper after market.

i wish i was more fond of the brique double tour band i ordered with my watch. hoping it looks good in person

I’m anticipating all black Hermès boxes, black instructions and even a black Hermès bag!

I pre-ordered a SBSS S5 and randomly stumbled upon the SB Hermes S5. It looks absolutely beautiful.

Anyone have experience ordering off Hermès? I prefer going here because I'm not being charged any tax, but very unclear on how/when they will ship, if I should upgrade the shipping speed, etc.

Thank in advance and I look forward to joining the club!

Hermès doesn’t allow returns if you have opened the box and plastic packaging wrapping the watch.

You can return within 14 days if you buy directly from Apple.

Thanks for the prompt response. Did I waste money upgrading the shipping speed? I assume they don't follow deliver by dates like Apple does.
