Soooo now they I have the Rouge band coming with my SBSS45mm, and I ordered the Biscuit band this morning, now I am obsessing over the Bleu/Noir!! Ugh. Now I am trying to stop myself from ordering this band too. 😩

Do you guys think it’s overkill if I have all three of these bands?? Thoughts??

You know you're gonna do it. :D The Noir/Bleu is my favorite of the three, and has black hardware, which will match my watch. If you don't care about the mismatched hardware to the case, do it!

It will match because I ordered the SBSS 45mm with the Rouge Band. Yes, I most likely will get it. I just think these bands are very unique this year and Hermes does not always release bands with a print on it.

thank you for replying. Hss your watch moved to preparing to ship yet?

Ah, ok, I thought you got the silver. Nice!

My dates are Nov 16 - 23, so I don't expect anything to move yet. At this point, my identical order directly from Hermes will likely arrive before the one I ordered from Apple.

I have always had amazing service when I ordered directly from Hermes. Plus they way they package the watch inside the delivery box is really above and beyond and protects the watch very well and they wrap the box with Hermes ribbons. Now they even accept Apple Pay which if I had to order directly from them, i would still get 2% back. If i could not get what i wanted from Apple on Friday, I would have ordered directly from Hermes. I am waiting to find my tracking information and am checking UPS track by reference every few hours.

I ordered through both. Apple is scheduled for mid November, so I’m betting on Hermes

I hope my sales assistant at Hermès can pull through tomorrow and tell me he’s put aside a S7 for me to pick up this Friday.
 
I was looking to do the same & see what’s delivered first, but Hermes.com doesn’t have the Noir Swift Attelage Single Tour
I believe the Hermes luggage AirTag for ~$500 was only available at Hermes. I wonder how Apple and Hermes decide which items they will offer exclusively, so it’s not a bad idea to check the options on both sites as there have been differences.

Thank you. It’s a great color; why haven’t you worn it?
I have the fauve deployment buckle band that I wear most of the time. When I buy a new Hermès watch, I just leave whatever single tour it comes with in the box and keep wearing my preferred band(s). If I do swap bands it’s usually to the blue/orange nylon jumping tour or the orange sport.
 
I also have an order directly from hermes, because i was a bit late and my preferred option can’t even be ordered from apple anymore. (Leather with blue print)
Ordered the same without print from apple though.. currently scheduled for 3. - 10. nov.
will likely keep what arrives first and cancle the other if possible.
My hope is that not many ordered directly from hermes and they get their „assured“ stock anyway
