@athousandbands I can easily manage the ML, but I am concerned about it scratching the Watch. Before, I had the regular SS Watch and I found the ML to scratch the Watch. Would thing differ with the SB Hermes?

One has to be careful as the sharpness of the mesh can def pierce the DLC coating.

And certainly you prob want some leeway to let them make contact as you negotiate the band-swap with more struggle than the average user…

I’d say go for it, though. Life is short and the DLC will hold up well enough.

You keep asking for someone to post a picture. Just go to the Apple Store app. Select shop. Choose Hermes. You can select the SB Watch with a variety of bands by creating a “case”.

The app or the web is not valid for drawing conclusions, so I ask if someone can share a photo, in the same way that I have shared photos when someone has asked for a favour. I don't think I'm bothering anyone by asking for something that is proper to this forum.
Leaving your lack of Christmas spirit aside, the app or website shows 3D renders -far from reality- and, for some strange reason, the SB shows it with a graphite tone, nothing to do with reality. Finally, the only view they have to clearly see the change of material is insufficient due to the degree of inclination it has.

Have you searched the pictures in this thread? There have to be ones of the sort you‘re looking for.

@Luis0180 Glad I could help. Do you have a Hermes watch? Are you purchasing both Watch and band or just watch or just band?
I have one! My first Hermes! A SBSS S8 40mm with black leather and also the black and grey jumping solo.
In love with this watch but really wanted to try new Hermes bands, they are out of this world.

The manager says they do expect new ones soon. I did ask to buy both. :cool:
I am a bit (A LOT) upset. In November we called them, went in store, spoke with managers - they didn't let us buy 45mm from Demo table and said that bands are sold out and would never be restock. Today we came there again - "oh, there were restock, but it was sold out last week and would never come back again, sorry". I am so angry to see they just lied us!

I understand how upset you feel. I assume this is the Madison flagship store. Good luck with it.

It’s crazy the msrp is 200 extra bucks (not that I’ve ever given in) but the deployant is so lovely.

I had no idea they were $200 more.

Considering Hermès charged an extra 100$ just for for the Circuit print on an otherwise completely ordinary Single Tour, 200$ for the Deployante almost seems like a bargain. 😬

Hi All! Ive joined the club :) and now I'm addicted ! Started with the Orange Swift Leather Single Tour added to my Ultra ..... then, I returned the Ultra for a Hermes 45mm with the Vert Rousseau! Loving this watch so far.

Question - Whats the best way to store and keep the bands in good shape ?
