I'm on watchOS 8.7 And it says on my phone that my Apple Watch is up to date. Perhaps when I am able to download OS9, THEN I will get the lucky horse faces watch faces?

I’m pretty sure they are part of OS9. Those that are seeing them are running the OS9 release testing
 
ordered! I always sell the leather band right away and use sport bands or link bracelet. cant wait!!
Kind of the same. I put away the Hermes band until I upgrade next year to sell it with the watch. I prefer using the braided solo loops (charcoal 99% of the time).
 
Anyone thinking about the Hermes bands paired with the ultra? Wonder how that will look...

I really want to believe that I'd be cool with mismatched metals, but I know eventually I'd regret it. It's just aesthetically unpleasing to my eye.

The lack of nice bands is the only thing holding me back from the Ultra. The alpine is dope to me, but the rest are pretty meh.

Two Hermes bands are screaming my name. The black with chain (uber sexy). It's so rock chic. And the Rose Texas Attelage Double Tour because I have too many pink outfits.

Tbh, I feel Space Black hardware will at least look decent on most watches as it matches the black border around the display and the black ceramic backing. Will be higher contrast with a brighter case but it shouldn’t look as glaring a mismatch as different tones of silver, etc.

Eager to try my Space Black hardware-swapped Rouge band on a red aluminum Watch and Blanc band on a white ceramic Watch; even with the hardware being black they’d likely look amazing together.

Lol nothing like reinforced, assertive elegance. Seriously though, that metal gourmette chain has to be the nicest thing apple has ever put out for Watch.

Wrist circumference: 5.1" to 6.1"? Then this band is quite small. Perfect for me.

:oops:o_O:) Should I pull the trigger? I'd hate to buy and return because it's too big. Why doesn't Apple have some floor samples to try on?

The double-tours are designed for small wrists. That’s why they are limited to the 41mm models. I’d go for it. It’s the nicest band Apple has ever offered for the Apple Watch.

So as we saw, Hermes web stores around the world removed everything Apple watch related, and now are back with the new bands.

What does that mean for the older bands? Historically have we seen them come back for sale? They were in stock 2 days ago, so physically, they're sitting somewhere.
 
Bit miffed that the regular SS gets the Nike faces, but at least only the Hermès gets this

It seems like Hermes watches aren't getting the Nike faces. I was going to go from the Series 7 Midnight Nike to the Space Black Hermes, but I'm going to hold off and see if they get the Nike faces. I use Nike faces most of the time.

Yes it seems that the SS and Alu watches will now get all the Nike faces, the release candidate of WatchOS9 doesn't seem to have them for the Hermès watches - though to be fair the new Lucky Horse face took a few minutes to appear for me so maybe they are there in the firmware, and need to be activated by Apple (once the proper release is out), rather similar to the way the Unity faces were.
 
First time going for an Hermès watch this year, in Space Black! Coming from a Graphite SS, the Space Black sold me once I saw that the 14 Pro Max is also in Space Black this year. Should be a nice combo. Also really digging this band! Super excited! 😄

Is it me or does Hermes Space Black this year look more like SS graphite? My S7 SBSS is *black*, not any shade of grey, but the photos this year look more grey.
