which case sizes does everyone use?

i use the 40mm because i have smaller wrists, which i dont mind because all the hermes bands (and apple) like the double tour, or some of the single tours that i like are exclusive to the 40mm case.
I'm about to find out. Currently have a 42mm but bought both sizes of the fauve to see which fits me better.

What I’ve noticed about Hermes is the more “masculine” skewing bands are 44mm exclusive while the “feminine” ones are 40mm exclusive

If u like Herme’s single tour bands just stick with 44mm

Was just notified that mine is now preparing for shipment. Time to start watching UPS for tracking numbers.

I preordered my single tour encre/beton seconds after the keynote ended. I was given a 9/26-10/1 delivery date.

I prefer 40mm in my AW's. I don't like my cases too in your face.

40mm vs. 44mm is all about the size of your wrist and nothing else. No Apple Watch will be too in your face no matter which size you get. These are not gaudy watches like some other companies make. You should however purchase the size that fits best based on your wrist size however. :apple: :)

LOS ANGELES BABY!!
So the charge for my watch and iphone pro max posted to my Apple Card last night. So despite ups not having updated their scans, they must have shipped for the charges to post. Earned $44 in daily cash back on the watch..

Since I was able to sell my series 4 hermes on ebay for a reasonable price I went ahead and picked up a Noir. 4-5 week delivery. I also ordered a Ceramic Edition as I cant decide which one I want to go with. I've had Hermes the last 3 series and think ill really miss the watch face.

Also i kept my orange sport band, Im thinking it will look killer with the space black watch :)

So when I ordered my SSSB Hermès watch I also ordered the Etain/Beton band which had a ship date of October 8th. I just received a notification from Apple they’ve moved up my ship date to September 27 through October 2 for this band.

I also ordered the 44 mm SS Hermès watch with the Etain/Beton band which I will cancel as I decided I really like the space black. The all black stuff tomorrow really is something quite different so I’m gonna keep that one instead of going back and getting another stainless steel.

44mm and I always go into a Hermes store to get one extra hole punched into the band for better fit.

Friday is coming soon! I’ll post pics of the Hermès box and SBSS as soon as I get them!
Do they place the hole right there in store or ship it out?
Do you have a pic

How much did you sell your series 4 for? I sold mine for $500 without the blue indigo band; now trying to sell that

Is it safe to assume the S5 will still only come with 1 of the 2 sport band sizes? Really wish Apple could throw in the other half when these cost like 3x the base model. :(
It does only come with larger end

My UK order of a 40mm SB SS Hermes due to arrive tomorrow (money taken) is still at preparing to ship. Hoping to see HUGE movement today. Thankfully it does say “Arriving tomorrow” though.

So's my 44mm SBSS. I expect that they have been in the UK for a few days and are ready to deliver. Same thing happened a couple of years ago when I got my S3 Hermès.
