Hermès Edition Owners Thread

All the new Hermès bands shown off on the Apple website. I suspect there might be more choices when it gets released.

That double tour will cost an arm and a leg!

Well, well, well. Look what’s not an S7 exclusive after all.

Side note: Hermes iPhone 12/12 Pro case is no longer listed on Apple's website.

Looking like that was a short lived adventure. I would have bought one if they had a 12 Pro Max size but oh well.

It always looked like a saddle brown Apple case with Hermes stuff tacked on to me.
 
In a bit of an annoying spot. I got the graphite stainless steel series 6 late last year, but have since fallen in love with the Hermes bands. Shame the metal on the Hermes bands are either space black or silver, with my graphite watch being awkwardly in the middle.

I toyed with just biting the bullet and upgrading to the Hermes this year, but the series 7 really doesn't seem like a worthwhile upgrade over the 6.

So I either:

A) Get the Fauve Barenia with deployment buckle band that I've been lusting after and have the metal on the lugs and clasp not match the graphite stainless steel of my watch for a year (until I upgrade to the Hermes watch for the series 8)

B) Just spend the damn money and get the series 7 Hermes that will match the band I want

C) Just sit it out for another year

Has anyone tried a graphite watch with an Hermes band before? How bad is the metal mismatch? I can't seem to find a single photo of this combination. Just wish I had got the silver series 6 instead of graphite, then I wouldn't be in this quandry!

The metal mismatch is not worth fretting over! Go for it!

So hard to decide between Rouge H from my Jumping and Biscuit for that nude look. But not having those colors on my s4 would suck! The new circuit face otherwise isn’t making me too envious. Maybe the normal Hermes faces will get Rouge H b/c of the Attelage, though Anemone is solid.

I'd go for Biscuit, seems more unique. Rouge H is basically the same as Bordeaux, no?

The return of lime would just be too awesome … I've been hunting for that band for years now and never found one.

Thanks, that helps! I think the graphite goes OK with the dark lugs, though I'm wanting to get the leather band with silver lugs, which might be a bit more conspicuous... If someone has an example they could post a snap of that would be amazing, though I know it's an odd combo so maybe nobody really has it.

I'm very perplexed on this release. It's quite an incremental release. But I love the faster charging and smaller bezel size.

And this right here is the problem, for me anyway. I get a new iPhone every year. It's one thing to pay the Apple tax for their leather cases each time at $59 or whatever. But hundreds of $ each year for a case? No. And of course you can't use last year's case with this year's phone bc they change the camera bump each time even if the rest of the dimensions are the same.

I too left Hermes for the Graphite SS. I really love it and sort of wish that they'd made *it* the Hermes exclusive color rather than black. I agree with the other poster that the lug mis-match is not an issue whether black or regular SS lugs.

I like the larger screen of the AW7, but don't love that it's the same internals otherwise. Really on the fence. I'm also not an Hermes band hound. I have a few, and use a Jumping as my DD, but am not a collector per se. Point being I sort of wish I could just buy the watch body and no strap.
