Definitely go with double tour!

Yay! I like the Biscuit/Bleu Electrique Circuit H -- I have it too, and I am hoping for some similar bright blue bracelet from Hermes, too, like the Goliath, to pair with it!
That is Not 100% correct. Get my S7 Hermes with this band. In germany. But on the next day the band was sold. ?
so you are the one who stole the last one…
looks great! Hope you are enjoying it

Honestly even with the extra hole..I find the leather stretch over time. Eg xs in the double tour (Kelly) is just right so imho too tight, but it stretches. I got the s so it was loose and then it stretched!!! So now it literally is a bangle that just circles around my wrist.
I’ve gone from 4 to 3 to still achieve the “loose” I like (not so loose it will be a bangle but enough that it’s not sitting on my skin so it breathes)… and that’s because even when it’s loose it stretched…
And now I have this tiny little arrow coming up, I can only imagine if it stretched out further (I hope not), that I’ll overlap to the face… sad problem, I’m just glad my wrist is not any smaller.
three:
(Basically I love the DT but you might want to consider the larger DT… I like the skinnier band look and luckily my wrist is ok).
They’re here
45mm Noir Double Tour & Noir/Bleu Électrique Circuit. The double tour definitely runs small. I’m on the 3rd from last hole. My wrist is 165mm. I debated on returning it but I still have it on so guess I’m gonna keep it
So glad I purchased the 45mm watch instead of the 40mm, or else I wouldn’t be able to wear the double tour. Also tried it with the Attelage buckle. It’s cute but it’s even smaller. The Attelage buckle is several mm shorter than the normal one.

What I've noticed is because the new double tour is thinner, and the stainless steel watch quite heavy, even in two loops, the band is barely sustaining the weight. The look is beautiful, but I can't help but notice the watch is sort of dragging/ pulling on the thin bands. This look is not something I can wear for a whole day, but it's definitely sexy for the few hours out.
The single tour is nice, but is obviously larger in sizing, but the weight is evenly distributed.
There are pros and cons to each band. I think I will keep both. And if I want the double tour in Gold, I can always get that later.
I'm officially on ban island. New Hermes watch and two bands. I think this is my limit for the year.
I kind of do. A little variety. And who knows when I will be able to come across this beautiful camel/ beige color with electric blue pattern. It's really, really pretty. So I think this watch band will be my "comfortable" style.
Quite a bit in my experience. Both with their bracelets and watch straps. No experience with barenia.
for me the strap is getting slightly crinkled around the holes but it doesn’t look dragged though it probably does… that makes sense since the leather stretched but I think that’s just swift leather in general.
All this talk and the photos of Hermes watches has me thinking of going AW Hermes when the S8 comes out. One thing that confuses me is the double tour band. Is it stylistic only or does it serve a purpose the single tour does not?
I’ve been a fan of Hermes long before the AW collab. If I wanted the double tour look I can find much cheaper options.
For me it’s a combo of the craftsmanship, look and quite frankly I believe in buying the original.
I personally think the double tour bands look better. The original double tour is eye catching and the attelage looks classy.
If your wrists are on the smaller side, the double tour bands might fit better
Only 2 of those - Lime/Kraft and Orange/Kraft - are part of the current season. All older Jumping bands are discontinued and won‘t come back when they are sold out. You may have a shot by calling Hermès stores as they may have (and sell) some old stock.
It’s styled after bracelets that were already part of Hermes’ collection.
My Anemone Swift Leather band arrived today!!! So happy the Sydney Hermes store had one left! Such a pretty colour!
New look for this week

Are you in Sydney as well? Pickup? I rang Hermes Sydney, they do have the bambou option. asked them to send the payment details through. Heard nothing even though they said yes
Nope, I am on the Gold Coast in QLD. They sent me an sms with the payment link, clicked on it and paid. If you haven't received anything I would be giving them another call.
I do have an online Hermes account with all my details so they could look up my info. Have you created an online account?
Ahh I'll try again thanks.
Yeah I do have one. They found my details too. But nothing. I'll look at my account again. If you don't mind me asking what payment options were available at the link the sms
Had the option for credit card payment. Also gives you an order number and once paid you receive an email. Unfortunately it isn’t linked to the online account.
