What about polished/mirror Ti Hermes? Isn’t that the finish of the 16 Pro?
Got a tip for us?

Titanium Hermès Watch? I don't know... If SS is dropped I would assume that the Hermès is dropped too. Seems not luxurious enough for me. There have been rumours for years that the partnership could end because the watch is not considered as a piece of jewelery like Apple intended as first. I would be probably be out, I love my black SS. I could get used to Graphite SS, but Titanium...
I woukd wait until Monday! I bet this color will be released and you will have overpaid for nothing. Nice color which I wound definitely get. I sent a message to the seller asking him about this band and if it’s a new kilm color for fall 2024.I’ve always assumed this seller has access to the EPP discount, looks like he has a gray Kilim he doesn’t realize is a proto?
Almost wanna splurge but would feel dumb if it drops retail next week

There are rumours every year the partnership is ending and it never eventuates.
Will keenly wait for Monday’s event and see what watch case and new bands we are getting

This! I‘m sure that if steel is gone and if Hermès continues, the titanium will be (mirror) polished.
But I still can‘t believe that steel will be gone after all these years.
This was bc the sellers response when I inquired about the grey color. I for one am not buying his reply. Anyone here ever see Hermes have a limited run in a band as popular as the kiln?? I would think if it was someone on this forum, would have reported it
“This color was only released by Hermes in a limited run. Yes it’s considered exclusive and unique. 100% authentic.”
There have been limited editions in the past, but they were available in person at site-specific locations. I believe the last was a very colorful, painted modern design on a Blanc leather band. There was always online chatter about them, though, and I haven’t seen or read anything about a limited edition Kilim
I'm not buying it either. The Madison band was reported on very early by multiple Apple news sites, so this isn't the same as the Madison band. And you're absolutely right: Someone would've spotted it and posted about it.
It's clearly authentic, but I believe it's either unreleased or a prototype.
Probably Hermes boutique or other store got some stock early and this one fell into the seller's hands somehow. Or they have a backdoor into the supply chain.
A beige rubber band makes for a boring "limited edition."
Yes but also it’s been a dog’s age since we got a fog/pebble from Cupe. I want (at retail and then secondhand haha)
iPhone logic trickles down. Lighter is better! Bereft of meaningful health upgrades or a waterfall bezel…
But I might miss the heft, in that classic sturdy mechanical watch way.
Shocking he’s raised the price because one of us contacted him.
He used to be reasonable sell dead stock bands at retail or below and now he just hoards Kilim. We were rooting for you Pete!
Hahaha. You
hahaha. Your right. It was $462 and now he raised it to $510. That’s nuts. 5 people including myself are watching it. Let’s see if he sells or he offers 10%……
It looks like Béton to me.
Also looks like someone just bought it anyway. Hope it’s a fall color dropping next week as I very much want a Béton Kilim with a SBSS swap.

If those size leaks are correct (42mm/46mm), then I suspect Apple moves away from 2 different band sizes. No reason to have a slightly smaller 41mm width if 42mm is the bottom end. Unless they increase the width of the 44/45/46 band. I can see them pushing a unified size - for less waste etc. I hadnt thought about it honestly.
These numbers refer to the height. How is this move any different from the s7 size bumps?
Ok team, surely we’re due a full-bleed new Hermes face, right?
He added that after we hipped him to the special status though. Before it was all boilerplate. But it would be cool if he reached out and someone at the company shared the name. Or maybe in person it matches the cream tone of Beton leather nicely? Or maybe I only know the more yellow Beton of the Della Cav bands?
Well, we got Radial last year, so I’m not expecting a new face.
But I say hell yes. Bring on the Arceau font, finally.
I would bet $1199 they do a new face, I don’t think they’ve skipped a year in awhile.
Plus, new design! They can’t do hero shots with stupid old Circulaire or Radial
