LOS ANGELES BABY!!
I’m surprised they brought this back. That color isn’t too attractive to me though. Would probably have fit a 40mm better.


I know. Not a fan of the little metal spikes or color. Just was surfing the net and saw this. Keeps my mind off of being locked down here in Los Angeles.

Just received my new Hermès SBSS Single tour 44mm. Love it! Big improvement from my old series 2 SS. Wondering which additional Hermès band might go with my SBSS? I do love the new orange swift, but paired with black? Don't want to be looking like Halloween.

Also, should I be worried about the lugs not matching??

Nah I have the SBSS and it’s a lot more versatile than you think. And the mismatched lugs don’t bother me at all.

Great photos! Thanks for sharing! Yes, the different colour lugs don't really look like much of a big deal.

So now the question is, should I get the new Orange Swift single tour or the new Noir/Blanc/Gold Swift single tour?

Decisions, decisions...

Just curious, where did you order your watch from, Apple or Hermes?

If you really like/want both, I would go with the Noir/Blanc/Gold first as it will probably be available only for a limited time (until it‘s sold out). As orange is THE Hermes color, I would guess they‘ll always have one of those around. Feu was available all the time until this new Orange was released.

This might be a dumb question, but does that face come with the BSS or just the SS?

All faces that come with the SS come with the BSS. So that face, shown on a SS, would come with BSS as well.

The opposite is not true however. All faces that come with BSS do *not* come with SS. Specifically, the black/noir 2-tone face.

So I finally decided on the Étain/Béton Swift Single Tour (received today!) and the Orange Swift Single Tour (ordered today!) to go with my new Hermès SBSS (with the Noir Single Tour) I received last week.

Not having the lugs match the SBSS does not bother me at all! I actually think the sliver and black look awesome together!

I'm officially on the Hermès Apple Watch bandwagon!!

I’ve been thinking to purchase Apple Watch Hermès for quite some time and finally my mobile phone carrier has support for cellular Apple Watch.

Only problem is that Apple Watch Hermès isn’t available in my country so I would have to order the watch either Hermès Germany or UK site. I asked Hermès if this is possible and this is what they told me.

Apple Watch is only offered in the countries in which it's telecommuncations functions are supported, which is why you see it on the UK and German sites and not on the Finnish one. The models sold on these sites only work as intended by Apple in the countries in which they are sold, so if you bought a UK model you would not be able to use it in its full capacity.​
Is this really the case? I live in Northern Europe so I assumed that as long as I buy an Apple Watch with European model number and my country supports LTE there would be no issues. I know that US Apple Watches require the US carrier hence the different model number. Are Apple Watches also country specific in mainland Europe? So I would have to buy the watch from country I live and plan to use it in?

Ist will work. There is one European version. If your provider does not support it, it bevaves lik a non cellular version. In my country some providers do support it, my provider does not. So, just no independent cellular function. That’s it.
