Wait... what?!? How did you get two new face colors? Wonder if they are being pushed out in regional stages? I've rebooted watch and phone a few times and the new colors aren't listed or available to add with the +
They're running the release candidate watch build. Apple released it earlier today. Some folks like to run the betas/pre-release OS to scour out the stuff that eventually trickles out to the final build etc.

And even when you have 17.4/10.4 getting them to appear on the phone will still be hard, lol. The watchface team needs a new lead.
 
Sable v Biscuit hmm

The sable is gorgeous. Was hoping not to buy any more bands in case they switch connectors with the series 10 but it would just be so perfec…
 
The color picker is _AWFUL_. But you know that :D
It’s not new software day if I’m not rebooting the watch just to get a new color to stay selected for more than a second.

Don’t even get me started with how every watch completely freezes on the picker like 50 seconds after I turn it on (this is prob not something single watch owners encounter lol)
 
Came by to say new Hermes looks insane and super love the Bleu Céleste Kilim. I don't think it'd fit me though.

Wonder what Hermes getting most of the love this season means for Series 10? 🤔

This gives me pause because I have the Biscuit…but so does buying the new Vert because I have the Bambou. I’m very torn…
I’m not a fan of any green except a darker or vibrant greens.

The new vert reminds me of the walls in my office from 2000s. People always described it as vomit green.

To each their own but the new sable is the best leather color IMO from spring/summer 24’ 45mm.

I love the new leather colors. So sad that again we don't get the Jaune in 45mm. Why Hermes, why!!.
PS: So happy that we finally get the bleu jean in 45mm tho. I wanted it since it was first released in 2015 for the 38mm only.

Some quick photos of the Orange and Blue Jean Tricot bands, which arrived very quickly!

They are a different weave to the Bridon bands, meaning they're not quite as soft, although still much softer than woven nylon. They are similar in thickness to the "base" Bridon without the chevrons, so they are still very flexible. I imagine they will be very comfortable in hot weather between the looser knit and the holes. They also revert to same sizing as the woven nylon options, whereas the Bridon was shorter.

Bleu Jean is a little darker than the leather version. Still a very nice blue though, I really like it. I'm not sure if I will keep the orange one, as I already have plenty of orange options. But I'll see how I feel after a few days with them. I definitely want to pick up the Jaune de Naples colour though.
 
I’m shocked right now that the U.S. Hermes site still hasn’t updated with the new leather bands. It’s been over 24 hours.

Just a guess, could be that the US stock hasn’t made it over yet to ship out from there.

I say this just because I felt the new H24 Herbes Vives fragrance was basically limited to just France when they dropped it!

I was going to counter by saying that I can’t remember a release where it was more than a 12 hour delay for the U.S. website.

But you bring up a good point. With the conflict going on around the Suez Canal, ships are having to take a longer route and I’ve read this is delaying goods.

I’m fine if they want to wait until April for U.S. release. I just picked up a few bands from Apple yesterday and that gives me time to financially recover for the leather releases 😂

I assume your two Tricot bands are 41mm? Or is the blue jean 45mm?
 
Anyone know why the 41mm (and only the 41mm) Kaki Kilim is listed as "new" on the Apple Store website? 45mm from September continues to be unavailable.
