A couple more shots of the new band - outdoor this time in real light. Got to say I love the IP14P new camera. Even my little boy wanted to get in the action :D

It’s already boxed up for return. I honestly don’t know what they were thinking. They should have done it on the attelage double tour. Or add something sleek like the Roulis closure as a link on the attelage.

The stock photos were pretty. 😬

It was even more…inelegant to me on the other side.

I really think it looks good on you! Especially with the chain on the left side. You should reconsider keeping it ❤️
 
Just as a heads up, there is a day one update that will increase your build number from 20r361 to 20r364. Make sure to check for updates.

I had issues with migrating my cellular plan on 20r361.
How do we force update it to 20r364? I tried doing a software update and Watch app says I'm updated, but under About I'm only on 20r361.
 
Why a Watch headed for California would be in Rockford is beyond my comprehension.
I know right??! My Hermes band came from Rialto,CA. But the Hermes Watch came from Clayton, IN. Last year I think it came from Tennessee and the band also came from Rialto. Very odd.

I didn’t think UPS was going to deliver it cause they rescheduled it. But it came 45 minutes after it went out for delivery. Was so glad because I was supposed to ship my series 7 Hermes to my buyer today. Which I am glad because I am able to keep my commitment to him. He’s been anxiously and patiently waiting for it.

Love the Gris Meyer band.
 
The Jumping are life-changing and versatile. Do it.

You get all the faces. Four plus the exclusive Noir gradient.

Noir/Gris Clair unless you have a special thing for camo colors. Noir/Saph is nice but pretty dark. And Gris Clair matches more things.
just got the strap and looks amazing, yes!
I can't wait for the watch to arrive so I can try it out!

One question... When I ordered the watch it said 3-4 weeks delivery (sad) but this morning it suddenly changed to "preparing for shipment". Should I be happy or should I not get my hopes up? It is still a long way off despite the change of status.

Oh wow, is it possible to change the hardware? how??
Im in love of few jumpings but new watch will be the SBSS and my favourite colors have the silver hardware

The lug bars are held in with screws and can easily be removed with the correct driver, the buckles are held on with a spring bar like any standard watchband which can easily be removed with a standard spring bar tool.

However it requires black hardware, which the only way to acquire is to take it from another band. It’s possible to find donor Noir bands used and/or cheap and you’ll be left with a bunch of Noir leathers and silver hardware if you do it multiple times. 😅

I’ve been doing it because the amount of bands made available with black hardware has historically been rather slim but thankfully Hermès has been releasing more choices these past couple seasons. Most people don’t go this far and that’s totally okay; simply waiting for Hermès to release more bands with black hardware seems like a safe bet now.

This is the new blue/brown one right?
Rouge Sellier / Bleu Saphir?

Do you use it for gym etc? Or have you used any of the nylon ones for gym etc? I’m seriously thinking to get this as my daily casual/gym band.

It’ll sit in PtS for 5-7 days at most I think.

Thanks so much for the explanation 🥹
Indeed I’m willing to get back hardware choices with lively colours bands, something hard to find. Let’s see if Spring comes with something for the Noir family!

Yes, it has. But keep checking the Hermès online store, they sometimes have older bands back in stock. Or an Hermès Boutique may still have one.
Ohh thats sad to hear it got dis continued :(
I knew i should have picked up one up when i first saw it last year but as i didnt know i was going to buy a Hermes Watch later on i decided to skip it. I regret that now.
I will keep checking from time to time though and fingers crossed it makes a reappearance either through the Hermes Store or Apple.

Every Hermès Watch gets all Hermès faces. There is one exclusive face for the black Watch and older than S4 watches didn‘t get the newer faces because their screen was just to small, but other than that you get everything. The bands itself don‘t get you anything.
Ohh sweet thats fantastic to hear it gets all faces and i did go for the Space Black model as well!

Thank you for all the info. Very much appreciated.

Wow that means I may get it quite before the initial estimation 🥰
Hope you receive yours much earlier than estimated!

Mine when i placed the order just said ships after the 16th of September with no estimate (from the Hermes Store), when i received the email Friday afternoon that mine that shipped i was shocked as Apple's estimate for me here in Australia for the model i wanted was saying 27th October.

At the moment tracking is estimated 19th of September for delivery.
I wont believe it until i see it :)

I ordered from the Hermes store on Friday and they said they ship from 19th and are in stock. Order says ‘pending payment’ though, is that normal until shipment when it’s ‘pre-order’?

Just wondering if I need to chase them Monday morning so there’s no delay.

I think i placed my order on the 11th of September ...either the 11th or the 12th but for some reason i never received a email when i placed the order i did however have the 'pending' charge appear immediately on my credit card when i placed the order.
All it said on the Hermes web store was 'ships after the 16th of September' and nothing else.

On the 16th during the morning i noticed the 'pending' charge disappear from my credit card and by 5pm later in the afternoon i then received a email from Hermes saying my order had shipped and they provided a tracking number for teh courier.

Id say wait until the 19th and monitor for your 'pending' charge to disappear, if it does its a good bet they are getting ready to ship out your order.

That’s the think I don’t see anything pending on the card itself, the order status is saying ‘pending payment’ at Hermes.

I might just send them and email now and it’ll be head of the queue for Monday morning to be answered.

Its possible then its in preparing/being packaged to ship out to you but yes best to send a email and get a confirmation from them direct.

Can I buy your discarded silver lugs and buckles? 😂

I really want the bleu de france in silver hardware

You should be able to check your order status on Hermes. I have been able to check in there when I ordered a bunch of bands from them.
