Have the Hermes Swift Leather H Diagonal Single Tour bands been discontinued already?
I've noticed now on the Apple Au store that Bleu de France is no longer available but Cuivre still is while on the Hermes AU store Cuivre has been removed but Bleu de France is still showing as available to order.
Have always been keen on the 45mm Cuivre one but just not ready to make the purchase at this time.....but if they have been discontinued and then sell out I'm going to regret it I think

They are technically last season and once Apple sells out they don’t stock again but there will be “restocks” from Hermès over the coming months and even if those particular bands don’t show up, they tend to collect/shift stock and put it all back up for one big push right before new watches/bands launch in the fall. I wouldn’t be too worried.

Interesting. They were supposed to be released online on the 7th of March but I can't find them anywhere yet.
Today I'm wearing my favorite Hermes band of all time.
I wear this band only less than 10 times a year, because I want to keep this band in mint condition.
Remember I wanted it so bad, but couldn't find it anywhere in Thailand, and luckily found it in Nagoya, Japan 7 months later.

Thank you for your reply.
Yeah i hope i can at least get the Cuivre soon as im able too and if im able later on to pick up Bleu de France even if its from Hermes direct thats fine.
ill be happy though if i can get my hands on the Cuivre one, Bleu will be a bonus.
I wonder why the newly released bands none of them were from Space Black to match (the buckle/links)?
Looks like the AirPods case, lanyard, and MagSafe wallet are Asia-only at the moment—if they even released at all yet.
Also, the colors are strange. The green AirPods case is claimed to be Bambou but it’s absolutely not Bambou; given the kinda-leak to Instagram from the Hermès social coordinator a couple weeks back it’s probably Vert Véronèse. Some of the photos there appear to be blown out and some don’t. Not sure what’s going on.

I found these same images on Hypebeast. It is possible that Hermes will release them later once production ramps up. I’ve seen that they have things available in other markets—like Asia and Europe—months before they hit US, for example. I’ve also found that Hermes updates its online inventory on Mondays, though that’s not always consistent.
The MagSafe wallet looks really tempting, especially since I didn’t splurge on any bands this go-around.
The MagSafe wallet looks incredible! Would love to get my hands on that!
Hi Everyone. I haven't received my Hermès Apple Watch yet, but until it arrives, can anyone clear-up a question for me? Does the Hermès edition use different shades of orange on the watch face, depending on the actual face? From all the pics I've seen, it appears that the orange on a pure black background is lighter and a different shade or orange than when used on a colored background, such as the split craie-indigo. Is it just because of the stark contrast on a pure black background? The numerals look more like a shellfish, pinky-orange instead of pure orange like an Hermès box. Can anyone confirm? Thanks in advance!
I don't think it's the case. Rather, our eyes perceive shades of colours differently, depending on surroundings, lighting and of course, background. Not to mention that most cameras producing such pics aren't perfectly calibrated in terms of white balance and that Apple's hero shots are notoriously unreliable, colour wise.
Thanks for the quick feedback! I assumed the variety of photo sources had something to do with it, but it just strikes me as odd that every picture I've seen of the orange against black appears almost salmon instead of orange, but of course you're right about the color perception considerations. I'm eager to the watch in person... thanks again.
I was attempting to get a good photo of my SB Hermes w/orange sport band and simply could not get the correct colors of the orange watch face. Thought about trying again with my DSLR, but I do think it's an issue with white balance and capturing the Apple Watch screen. My watch face is nearly a perfect match to the Hermes orange sport band tho. I love the combo!
Thanks for that feedback! I was hoping that the face color closely matches the band, so good to hear. Eager to get mine now
Normal for Hermes items, not just their Apple products. All Hermes pieces come with an identifying label like this, which is usually removed prior to purchase.
