Would an Apple Store or Hermes store swap the M/L end of the orange rubber Hermes strap for a SM end, at purchase? Or I need to buy one OEM from a third party?

Thanks again.

I received my 41mm Hermes watch a week ago and it came with the S/M orange band.
I bought the 45mm SS with the deployment buckle yesterday. They added extra holes for me post sale at the Madison Ave store, but I did not think about the orange rubber strap at the time.

S/M only comes with 41mm models, and M/L only comes with 45mm models. Apple and Hermès do not sell nor have the M/L for 41mm and S/M for 45mm models to swap or replace. If you want them, you'd have to go third party.

Save me time trying. $60 for the smaller end seems reasonable.

Hello,

Is there a big color difference between the old 2020 Vitamin C Apple orange band and the current Hermes orange band?

Is just me or anyone has notice that the Hermes Circulaire face is brighter and bigger with 9.1??? 🤩
I got the SS Series 8 Hermes with the deployment buckle after getting the Apple Ultra a month ago, and yes, the overall brightness (or apparent magnitude) is more with the Hermes edition than the larger Ultra.

The Hermes I had opened with the latest FM.
