Detached like unscrewed or snapped off? And wow that’s turnabout is fair play on Apple’s much loathed proprietary-ish pentalobe screwdriver. I can’t believe they didn’t have one. A sad day in the Genius Bar!

I guess it needed more Loc-tite. Now I’m wondering how they put it back together without a screwdriver.
The screw came loose. They are tiny, but I found it with luck. Apparently Hermès has even more proprietary screwdrivers than Apple ?

The lugs are Apple’s Chinese wholesale MFW pieces, though, and have nothing to do with Hermes. Regardless of whether the lugs are Chinese or Swiss like the Apple Leather bands, they all use a single screw. Did the Apple Store employees confer with the people in the back who fix stuff?

Not trying to truther you, it just seems impossible they wouldn’t have every size Pentalobe screwdriver on hand, unless no other device uses PL2x40. Especially in the alleged Mecca of watchmaking, lol.
 
What are you guesses for spring double tour colors? Since Starlight is the new Apple "it" color, I was hoping, maybe etoupe or gris might be available? If so, I'm ready to buy!

Dear friends! What do You think about Circuit H Single Tour leather bracelet for Space Black Hermes watch? Any real photos? Many thanks!
 
How is Your Noir Bleu Jumping tour? What are Pros/Cons?
Really love the feel, texture and it has a enough weight to it which makes it feel premium. Does not feel like any ordinary nylon band. That pushed me to buy either the rouge or the newest orange jumping tour soon. Will be my daily wear whilst the circuit will be more function/ nightlife wear

No cons yet.. guess have to be careful wearing it as it was reported how the band becomes bad or something

Have that as daily driver for the black Hermès watch, and damn love that colors and structure of the nylon.
Best band as it’s premium enough for even a suit, but can be taken to sport, swimming and Sauna as well.

(Ofc, there are more premium options, but it’s doing the trick for a smartwatch if no leather might be available.)
 
Thanks! Looks really great! I have ordered same color of watch and strap from German Hermes store. Thought that made the wrong choice.

Thank you You’re going to love it! I was on the fence, but I’m glad I got it. Pics don’t do it justice.

Really? I thought it’s impossible to swim in nylon, only with silicone strap. I have chosen the black watch, because I really like the look of black silicon strap on it…

About how long does it take to dry after swimming/wet? Do you change bands in the mean time or leave it on while it dries?
It definitely takes quite a while to get dry. I’d assume an hour, but I have no valid data on that.?
While I’m at the pool it stays with me, but like wet shorts I do not notice it further, even if it’s wet.
After showering charging it quickly and put it back on isn’t a good idea, like putting on wet shorts to go back swimming isn’t either.
Depends on the very own habits, I would say, when you charge and how often you want to clean the band.
If Sport was excessive, i prefer to wash out the band as well, but haven’t had the feeling that it takes on any smells so far, so it might not be even necessary.

I got my first Hermes AW yesterday. SS with Black Noir single band. Really like that combo and the Hermes faces. I must have a skinny wrist, as the band is still slightly loose. Not bad, but could be a tad tighter. I wear a size 6 in Apple Sport loop.

I really wish the Hermes Orange Sport band would come in the Sport Loop. In my opinion, the Sport Loop and Apple Woven Loop band are the most comfortable bands, easiest to put and fit the best.
