Hermès Edition Owners Thread

Wow. I cannot answer your question, but I'm just here admiring your Gourmette Double Tour band. It's SO pretty. It's a piece of art!

Do you own the Attelage DT in red or white? I think about them all the time.

Thank you! I’m absolutely obsessed with this band and admire the patina it’s acquired so far :)

I do have an Attelage DT band but it’s the noir color. I honestly haven’t worn it since getting the regular DT bands. I feel like the width of the band looks better on my wrist

Do you have any DT Attelage bands?

I probably should get a white single tour while it's available, as i missed my shot when the white Rallye came out. Although I think Rallye looks better with Indigo or black anyway, so this is a win.

I do have two DT Attelage bands: Rouge H and Gold. But for hot humid summer I'm really craving white to go with my all white outfits.

Moreover, the Rouge De Coeur is just such a bright pretty red, I think it'll go well with my Chanel and Dior red handbags when I spice up my outfits with a pop of red.

I dunno. I really don't need anything really.

So, this is probably sacrilegious, but has anyone paired an Hermès Apple Watch band with an aluminum watch? I’m considering a Single Tour….

The white DT Attelage is really nice. I kept looking at it when it became available. If it was available in a regular DT I would be considering it :) The Bleu Saphir also caught my eye

Single Tour bands are such a classic look. The white is an attractive color and should look nice with any outfit

I say buy it…that’s how I started but it was for a gold stainless steel and the silver didn’t match but I wanted that Bamboo band! And one day you’ll say I think I want a Hermes watch to go with that band.

Same scenario -- I had a S4SS AW (non-Hermes ed.) and first bought the Bambou band, then later purchased S7SS Hermes ed. following that.
 
athousandbands said:
I’m guessing you’re not interested in silver stainless but I feel like that’s what I would want for around the same price as the gourmette lol. At the same time once the gourmette is gone it’s gone, so I also support getting a second. Maybe even a third just to resell in a year.

I actually like the SBSS with it here, since the leather is just SO dark. Swap some black lugs on it -- that would put it over the top.

Yep I had a S6GSS … gave it to my granddaughter and then joined the Hermes club. But still enjoyed Bamboo on that non Hermes watch

Fauve is my favorite of the silver lugs on black. Would love to see more iterations of the pair posted on here, hint hint

Yep I have never understood why Apple never offered the Saddle Brown classic buckle with black hardware back in the day or why Hermes won’t offer Fauve Barenia with space black hardware now. Lighter brown band paired with black watch is ???

Do you think this new blanc-on-black DT presages more of the same in coming seasons? Or just a one off and blanc is the one extreme contrast option for this move.

I hesitate to offer an opinion since I’m still fairly new to the Hermes world. But all the bands this season with black hardware are excellent and I certainly hope Hermes continues to offer some bands that contrast with the SB watch in the future. Having Noir straps (with the occasional dark blue thrown in) as the only options for the SB watch was getting a bit old. The Blanc and Noir/Gris Clair straps are real stand outs this season.

LOL educated fudging gotta start somewhere. We have our guru kobezz in this thread with the hashtag facts, so the rest of us can just be wild. I guess my hunch is a feast or famine cycle. Big shouts to the SBSS crowd this season, maybe much less so in Autumn.

Maybe I’ll post a picture tomorrow of my watch next to the bracelet I ordered… more Fauve Barenia that way :)

I feel like I’m seeing those Hermes bracelets all the time on wealthy characters of tv and film now. And I was nudging @jeremyfernie as he has black hardware on his new Fauve. I think he forgot the passcode to his DSLR though, poor guy.
 
Hello, just bought a space black hermes with the noir bleu electric H band, but am going back and forth about whether to call them and change to the black leather. Would you folks mind posting some pics of each if you have them, and telling me your opinion. Silly I know, but it's who I am. Lol. Thanks in advance.

Love their bracelets, but I am holding out on the Spring/Summer 22 refresh (whenever that may be) before I purchase any more.

That’s a custom job, right? You can buy the black hardware and change it yourself?

Must look incredible for those capable of doing it :)
 
I haven't been in the thread much so just catching up on the last few pages...

Hi folks, has anyone recently had extra holes punched in your Hermès leather bands in an Hermès store/boutique? If so, where was it?

I called the store nearest to me yesterday (Cologne, Germany) and they claimed that Hermès doesn‘t offer this service anymore because of „concerns for the longevity of the bands“!?
Click to expand...

I brought 4 bands into the Hermes store in Sydney Australia in December last year and they had no issues punching an extra in each of those for me.

1. Sport band.
GrandeLatte said:
Everything you mentioned. Tons of cooking, cleaning, working out and dog walking.

2. Jumping.
Don't own one. My lifestyle right now only can accommodate 1 and 3.

3. Leather.
Whenever I leave the house and it isn't raining. And on Zoom calls, they are awesome for business meetings. Makes me feel just slightly more polished, more professional.

I wear my leather band when I go into the office (which isn't often anymore) but I feel more professional when I wear it haha

MeganLeigh1122 said:
I’ve been wearing my Fauve Barenia Double Tour Gourmette almost every single day since getting it in January. I simply adore it! Doesn’t smell as good as when I first got it but there is still a pretty leather scent :)

I decided to poke around on the Hermès website and see this band is back… I’m EXTREMELY tempted to buy a duplicate. I’d also order the Glenan Double Tour bracelet in orange to complement the Fauve Barenia band.

I have 3 other Hermès leather bands but don’t wear them. 1 of the others is a Fauve Barenia DT but it’s not as nice as the Gourmette. Do I order the duplicate and the orange bracelet??

The patina on that looks AMAZING!

I love the jumping bands. However, on several occasions, I had considerable difficulty getting the band off. I could not get the prong out of the hole. I had to ask my husband to remove the watch. Not a good situation.

Has anyone else had this issue? Do you end up wearing the band looser?
