Hermès Edition Owners Thread

How long does it take from in preparation stage to confirmation?
I've been checked that all day... From pending supply >> Received by Warehouse >> In preparation.
Click to expand...

I ordered from Hermes about 17 minutes after they went live on the site. It moved to "In preparation" very quickly (same day I believe). It stayed in this state until today when I received the shipping notification. So, it was about 7 days for me. I'm anxious to get this watch because my Series 5 stainless steel completely fried back in August when when I was on vacation and swimming.

My order which was just the band was in preparation since October 11 and then today it changed to shipping and then it shipped and I got a tracking number email from Hermes today at 6pm pdt.

Mine says, “Received by Warehouse”.

when I called, they said it would be shipped out today, and since I paid for overnight priority (yeah, $70 is a bit spendy, but it’s not like it’s a ton of money), I may get it tomorrow. We’ll see.

Have you received tracking number yet?

My S7 AW won't update to 8.0.2, saying that with 8.0.1 it's already up to date?? Is 8.0.1 the most up to date watchOS for S7?
Click to expand...
You are confused. There is no wOS 8.0.2.

8.0.1 is the latest for any series watch.

The confusion might stem from the fact that iOS is on 15.0.2.

The Rouge H Attelage is so sweet. It’s not quite a burgundy, it has hints of brown in some light. I’ll send picks in daylight. Picking up my Biscuit/ Electrique Bleu Circuit H tomorrow and can’t wait.

Do you have the Fall 2017 burgundy? If so, I’d love to see a comparison with Rouge H.

…but it does leave the black bg faces with s6 bezel, as we surmised upthread.

Only 2-3 people in this thread seem to care about this, but I'm debating with myself if I'll even open the package when it arrives next week. If I want the digits so far inside the screen, I might as well get a regular SS and go with Typograph. Although I haven't seen Typograph on an S7 yet and don't know if at least that one has been optimized …

Yea I’m restraining myself for asking for Typograph again in the Show thread haha. I wanna know how close the 12 and 6 get to the edge in “big mode”…been on a Typograph+modern type kick.

The gallery used to have the option to choose the face, huh? Never thought I’d want it

Wow … So (for me) the Hermès watch face advantage is officially gone. The Typograph digits are now actually closer to the edge than the Hermès digits in regular mode and just as close in always-on mode. Plus the Hermès watch faces are very probably still dimmer than the other watch faces (especially in AOD). As Phil Shiller may put it: “optimized“ my a**.

could you post a screenshot from Watch.app of the blanc face? I wanna make a precise version of this (red is my s4):

@the future I saw a post here earlier by @Dstopsie which showed that at least the Hermes Circulaire face is optimized for the bigger screen. I don't know how to quote a photo, unfortunately.

So annoying to see that Fedex is still moving my package around in my country, but it says it will deliver on Monday.
I guess they don't deliver on Saturday :( (Unless you pay for it specifically or something)

I adore the Hermes faces for their font.. those bold numerals in ‚regular’ typeface could/should be replaced by some more filigrane numerals..

The fonts are still better / more elegant, that‘s true.

Noone using this watch face?
Seems to use the whole screen and also allows for some complications.

Yeah, the Circulaire is indeed optimized! Personally I only ever briefly used it, though, and quickly went back to Infograph as my daytime/„complicated“ watch face.

I see exactly what you mean. I didn't use many of the colorful Hermes faces because of the thick black bezels. I was really hoping for that to change. :-( Now I think about getting the gold stainless steel version which Hermes still doesn't offer. :-(
