Where do you guys keep your Hermes bands ? I currently keep them all in their own box, buy is too much work. Does anyone have a nice box where you can put all together. I have 14 Hermes leather bands.

I lay mine flat in cabinet. I have seen other people say that do a similar thing and lay the hermes pad from the box, on top of the bands, to keep the bands flat.

Here is a full thread on band storage that may help with other ideas. https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/watch-band-storage-trays-cases-and-boxes-merged.1879381/

I just got my first Silver SS Apple Watch. While I've had gold and black stainless before, this is my first silver one. I am looking for a Business Casual to Classy looking band. I already have sport bands covered.

What would you recommend for the Silver watch that is Business Casual to Classy? I've looked at videos and pictures online, but I would like some suggestions from folks that have seen bands in real life.

Easily a single tour Hermes strap or the silver link bracelet

I do have the Orange Swift Single Tour and like it. I am considering a color that is more business/classy in nature. The black, gold, and brown look good in the pictures.
Although not business classy in the traditional sense, I would also suggest a Jumping band. It has significant advantages in hot and humid weather. It can be worn in rainy weather abd you can also exercise with it.

That is a good suggestion. I do have the Rouge de Cœur/Rouge H Jumping Single Tour Band. I like the look for casual things. 👌

Finally ordered and received the Cuivre Swift H Diagonal Hermes Wrist band.
WOW why didn’t I get this early!!!!! Not only does it look beautiful but it feels amazing, so soft and luxurious.
Heaps better than my original Hermes Leather Black.

EDIT: Love how the colour shade changes from when being indoors its more darker and being outdoors direct in the sun is a more lighter colour which is my fav out of the two.

Hi folks! Question for the Hermès leather band owners. I am a relatively new owner, having had this Apple Watch with the single tour in leather since November 2022 and the edges are beginning to fray. I always take my watch off when I shower or am fully submerged in water, but occasionally it gets splashed from washing my hands, very lite activities such as that. Do other people experience this? Not sure if this is a good sign of things to come, since I was hoping to use this watch (although I suppose not necessarily this band) for years to come. Thanks!

Not a good sign. I think since is under warranty , you should go to Apple if you bought it through it. Also I heard that they send it directly to Hermes .you could also try going to Hermes directly.

Sorry to see yours has become damaged like this :(

I’ve been wearing mine since October 22 but I can’t say mine is showing any wear whatsoever.
I am however careful to never get any water splash on it.

Definitely see if you can get the band replaced under warranty if you can.

Hi all. Ultra owner with a couple of Hermés leather bands (Orange Swift single, Noir deployment).

Interested in getting a nylon - one of the Jumpings - but I’ve seen some comments here about the sizing. I wear my single tour on the smallest hole, and my wrist is ~165mm. Will the Jumping be too loose for me?

(and/or should I spend the extra $30 and get another leather? The Bambou is next on my list.)

This happened to me on one of my Attelage bands. You can take it to Hermés and they can repair or replace it. It is the paint that has worn off and could likely be caused by a number of problems including friction or humidity to name a few.

Thank you kindly! :)
I always had my heart set on the Cuivre colour so soon as i got a chance I ordered it.

I actually went to look at Apple yesterday and noticed now both the Cuivre & Bleu De France options are showing as unavailable for delivery or pickup.
Does anyone know have these bands become fully discontinued or are just out of stock for the moment?
Wouldn't mind picking up the Bleu from Apple but I'm worried now its gone for good?

Would someone be able to post up the measurements of a Hermes Single Tour please? I’m looking to purchase one but I have pathetic wrists and I hate a strap which is too long.

Many thanks.

Do you guys think we are ever gonna get the Noir Hermès watch face on the stainless steel Hermès AW ?
Since we were not lucky to get the Nike faces, it would be cool we could get that watch face at least.

It depends on the size of the apple watch. In this case I use a 42/44/45mm Apple Watch, and also my wrist is skinny so i use the last hole on the Hermès band, which fits perfectly on me.
If you have the same AW size, and have an sport band, it is exactly the same length as using the 4 hole on the S/M sport band.
