Just got my Surf Blue sport band last night. Loving how bold it looks with the Craie/Bleu Hermès face.

Reminds me of Hermès Bleu Paradis.

I got my Cactus band I was VERY excited for. I thought it would be my new daily band.

I don’t like it :/

I’ve already relisted it on Poshmark and Mercari for a great deal of anyone wants it fairly cheap. I was hoping it would be bolder but it’s quite muted. Almost grey-green in real life instead of the blue-green I imagined.

I wish apple would make a sport band close to this:

Had to get the 44m double tour while it's still available, I always wanted one back when I saw it in S0.

It'll be fun wearing fauve saddle brown again, the color was my 2nd single tour Hermes band back in S3.

Couldn't resist, I'm sure it'll be cool to wear some Favre saddle again.

I didn't know the fauve came in 44mm double tour - that looks great!

I wish the EU websites were as stacked as the American and UK ones. There's basically no watches on the EU Hermès sites except for SB/noir and I've been looking every day for about two weeks for a SS 44mm Etoupe. =/

Was kind of tempted to get a new S6, but they also only had the SB/noir watch combo in-stock too. Wasn't a big deal, I feel this will keep me satisfied until S7.

When I went to Paris a few years ago and visited the Hermes boutiques, the selection was great. It seems business is doing well that they never stay in-stock.

Is it just me or did the Apple Watches and bands completely disappear from the Hermes USA online store?

I still see Apple Watch Hermes under both the Women and the Men categories

Does the fauve single tour stretch a bit over time? Mine is either too loose or too tight, loose isn’t gonna cut it. I realize the leather does soften up, as the ones for try on at the Hermès store are considerably softer.

It’s calfskin so it will stretch. I brought a kelly dt in calfskin in S because xs sits right on my wrist and I wanted just a bit of breathing room.

I regret it because that mofo stretched so now it’s pretty loose. I don’t mind big—I have the cdc in large because it’s more like a bangle so it goes up mid way... but the way Kelly dt is designed it doesn’t sit well when it spins.

I’d get it at a tight fit.

Excited to be in this club! I just ordered the 40mm Silver SS Hermès with the Attelage Orange Double Tour band. I’ve had every series watch since series 0. I’ve had stainless and aluminum. I really wanted the blue aluminum but I am concerned about how that will look when I get a chance to wear clothes that aren’t sweats?.
I’m coming from a gold aluminum, and to honest I never really cared for this color but kept it anyway. For some reason my watch is starting to not work quite right and I live and die by my Apple Watch rings, so I just decided to upgrade instead of waiting for it to brick altogether.
I use my watch everyday, and I even sleep with it on. I guess I’ll be needing to switch my band out at night and for exercise.
One question I do have though, does your watch connect with your wrist even with the double tour bands? It seems like one of the straps on some pictures that I’ve seen of the double tour bands are sitting under the watch.

Wrist detect is fine but you won’t be pulling off any Blood Oxygen readings with it, based on jamming the 44mm Double Tour on my size 7 wrist. Please bless us with pics! I love the geometry of the Attelage double

Weird. I wear this exact same combo with watch nearest to fist, then band on side.. I can get a blood oxygen reading just fine?

@NikkiAngel I have never experienced a problem with the strap slipping with either style of double tour band. If it is worn properly it won’t slide. I have, however, experienced this plenty while wearing a long sleeve shirt and the sport band.

Welcome to our precious club. You will not regret the SS version. It is the most classy combination you will get with any leather band.

... the blue one can look classy as well, as long as you are not doing weird things like I am (I could not resist that color)
?

The blue case is cool, especially if you can match them to indigo/bleu bands.

I want it!!!

The Rallye is among my favorites, I have the indigo that worked well with most business wear, but I do regret not buying the white when it was available.

It wasn't too long ago I bought the Nike white pride band for workouts and wet weather, and it grew on me that full-white is totally something I can get behind. As if the indigo/white Hermes clown band didn't spark me enough.

What do you mean?
Sorry, I couldn’t tell whether the watch you have is gold or silver SS. I’ve always been wary of matching gold with gold, silver with silver between Hermès bands and Apple Watch’s, just curious what you’ve got set up!
