Biscuit and rouge still available on US site. I am still on fence about getting the biscuit or noir bleu. I can’t decide which one, lol
There are heaps of these bands available still. Just not when combined with the Watch case.
They win
Edit: It was a Kaweco fountain based pen that did the damage.
They wiped it off. I contacted them asking what they recommended; they said bring it to the store. I did not see what they did. There is a faint mark of ink left but not as egregious as what I had on it. I was worried about all the methods mentioned online (detergent soap, rubbing alcohol, hairspray), so I immediately brought it to them.

Didn't you already order the rouge? Are you considering a second band?
I’m also considering a second circuit H / Bleu Lin band hehe

Yes. one can never ever have enough Hermes bands!!! It would be a second band. i already have the 44mm noir single tour and 44mm noir deployment buckle, so I’m going to order the biscuit!!! I made my decision!!!

After 3 very happy years with my Hermès Series 4 (40mm) with a double tour strap in Fauve Barenia, I think I may be ready for an upgrade to the Series 7. I love the look of the Bleu Lin double tour, but am not sure about the attelage strap. I have small wrists and hands (comparable to a 6yo or 7yo kid), and I’m afraid that the watch will move around a lot. And it just seems a bit thinner than my current double tour. I know I can get the Bleu Lin in the single tour, but I do love those double tour bands. For people who have had double tour attelage straps, have you been happy with them? Thanks in advance!
What’s up everyone… Just ordered my first Hermès Apple Watch. 45mm, Space Black, Noir Swift Leather Single Tour.
A little background, my wife is a huge fan of Hermès (has a Belkin or Birkin, whatever it’s called). She also loved her Samsung phones. In the summer of 2018, I was trying to convince her to move to Apple so we can share a unified ecosystem. She was dead set on not switching… until… one night I caught her checking out the Hermès Apple Watch online lol. This was the year before the SB version was even available.
Needless to say, the Hermès Apple Watch was successfully able to get my wife to come over to Apple and she’s been doing a yearly upgrade on them ever since. Tried to get me to get one every year as well but couldn’t justify the price.
Last year, the removal of SBSS on the standard models really upset me. That’s the absolute best color and finish combo Apple ever sold IMO. I initially purchased an S6 SS Graphite last year but I was so disgusted by it, I returned it for a SB Titanium in protest. I really showed them, eh? Lol. Never really fell in love with SB Ti. Too much on the dark gray side and really clashes with the black silicone solo loop. I actually like the Graphite SS better.
Anyway, fast forward to this morning, I ordered a Graphite SS again but was jealous of my wife always getting SBSS with her Hermès. About an hour ago, I canceled my Graphite order and here I am. I miss Space Black too much lol. I feel part of the club now and pretty excited about it. Bad news is, I gotta wait till the second week of November to get it. My wife is getting hers next Friday at least. Same setup as mine but in 41mm.

Previous series 6 shows the double thin actually is smaller (with where the holes are punched) so it’s actually better for those of us with smaller wrists.
Congrats and welcome to the Hermes thread!!!!
Once you go Hermès it’s hard to go back. I’ve owned every series of Apple Watch Hermès since the first version in September 2015. The bands are of such high quality. Fortunately I have a high enough salary to “justify” spending as much as a MacBook Pro on a Watch per year. I spend the $211 Hermès premium for the Watch faces just because. But the bands are the best I’ve ever seen.

I am in the same position as you. The Hermes model is the only one that i gladly shelve my gorgeous Rolex for.
Whew instead of upgrading my Hermès AW6 SS, pre-ordered all 3 45mm Circuit H and Bleu Lin bands from Hermès.

Agreed. As soon as I saw the new Bleu Electrique I knew I needed to have it.
Yeah I can see it already... Highly likely I’m not going back. When my wife got her first Hermès Apple Watch in 2018, I couldn’t believe how buttery soft that leather band was. And her Birkin, whoa! Quality stuff. She tells me that you need a strong purchase history for them to even consider you for a Birkin and then the waiting list lol. I remember when she picked it up at the Hermès store, they took us into a private room for inspection of the merchandise to make sure it’s up to her standards. She’s got quite a few orange boxes in her closet holding who knows what inside lol. I was never much of a fashionista. I wear sweat pants daily and get my hands dirty a lot. By justifying the price, It’s not that I couldn’t afford it, it’s that I’m more of a tech geek and cared more about the components within that gorgeous SBSS casing and less about what’s securing it to my wrist. I’m a changed man though lol. I haven’t even gotten it yet and I’m already excited for it. Reminds me of when I got my wife’s engagement ring. Never cared much for diamonds until I opened the box… it was like Marcellus Wallace’s suitcase haha. An aura surrounded it and I was mesmerized.
Just called Apple (I'm in Germany) and asked if I could upgrade my shipping to express for my Hermes 7 which shows arrival between Oct. 19 and Oct. 21. They told me it's not possible anymore because it's already preparing for shipping and according to their data will arrive between Oct. 15 and Oct. 18. I've had this with my Hermes series 6 too. It arrived a week earlier than predicted. Seems like all the edition watches showed a later date yesterday but are meant to be arriving on launch day too.
The Hermes band life is a Royale with cheese and so much more.
I hope you’re right! I’m in Australia and my delivery date is Oct 21.
