At a select few in upscale locations still I believe. Here is the original list from 2015.

👌🏻 thanks 😊. I checked and I don’t live near a Hermes store so I probably will not try it out until I get a chance to be in the area that has an Apple Store carrying it. Just going to try it out for fun btw
The Hermes store near me always has the watches there but the weird thing is none of them are activated. I don’t get it. For me I’d just like to see how the 46 watch looks with various Hermes faces. Not sure how to do that without just ordering from Apple.
Hermes Boutiques use the watches solely for display. The upscale Apple stores have some running demo software that you can try on and play with.
Store near me is a full Hermes store not a boutique. Still no demo Hermes watches.
Does anyone have pictures of a decently used Hermes leather band in Étoupe?
I love the color out of the box and I’m leaning towards getting it for the Series 10, but I’m curious to see how the patina looks on a worn version. I’m concerned it might look less nice after some time (unlike traditional brown leather, which develops a nice dark patina).
Would greatly appreciate any pictures! Thanks in advance.

Unless I know exactly what I want, and the Apple Store doesn’t have it, and I know I won’t return it (unless there is a defect), I wouldn’t even deal with an Hermès store or boutique. Given my personal experiences and reading other’s experiences here, everything seems to be a hassle and unnecessarily complicated.
I know man.. these display photos y’all shared from Hermes stores show these Apple Watch models are not turned on in any way. If you try it on at the Apple Store these watches will be turned on and on demo mode.
I’d rather just go to an Apple Store that carries Hermes Apple Watch ⌚️ if I want to try on the bands. Has anyone tried them on at an Apple Store?
I believe so, but none of them are near where I live
Yep - they don't have the same returns policy as Apple unfortunately which is quite annoying. Once I've opened and tried on a watch I've been told I can't return or exchange it. Wish apple continued to sell leather versions
I am fortunate to live in Las Vegas where we have several Hermes Stores and they all offer the Apple Watch. I was in the Wynn Resort last night and stopped in the Hermes store. They were still selling the Series 9 and he said they actually had a lot of stock of the 9. They were not in a stop sale as of yet but said most likely Friday or early next week they will need to pull them from their case and ship back to Apple but just the watches. I looked at a 41 Bleu de France Kilim Single Tour. I knew the price for the 41 should be $1249 he tried to tell me it was $1399, he also tried to tell me this blue was going to be in both sizes for the 10. I said to him "Are you sure?" I asked him to relook at pricing for the Series 9 he wanted to sell me, and sure enough it was $1249. On Friday I am picking up my new Gold Titanium at our Apple Store but I think for my birthday in November I will treat myself to the 42 Beton Kilim Single Tour. Unfortunately I think one may need to be very aware of pricing when shopping in the Hermes Store. It was obvious I knew more about the watches than the person selling the watches. Maybe he was more in the know of the Berkin Bags of which they only had one on display and no Kellys of any size. He did state it could take a few weeks before they had a lot of stock for the series 10 and for the bands but by mid October should be fully stocked.
Let’s face it, Apple Watch is not a focus for the Hermes stores. One small display and that’s it. They’d rather sell you a $5k purse. 
Oh and yes if you buy direction Hermes you better be sure you want it. Buying in their stores you can only return for a store credit but if you buy on line from Hermes you can return I think in 30 days but if you open and wear it at all they won’t allow a return.
Word to the wise.

Can anyone who ends up going into an Hermes store on Friday post any photos. Keen to see Live Photos of the bands

Annoying as hell, but absolutely true. The Apple/Hermès customer isn't in the same universe as the Birkin/Kelly Hermès customer.
I literally think it looks nothing like stainless steel. Anytime I’ve seen polished titanium I haven’t liked it. It’s subjective though and I as a human realize everyone has opinions.
I didn't mean that you couldn't have an opinion, but saying the polished titanium looks like plastic when they literally look the exact same is a little odd. Top is series 9 and bottom is series 10. Saying one looks like plastic is a bit of a stretch based off the images alone.
As an avid long term Hermes client, I would not trust an Hermes SA to know what they are talking about on basically any topic, least of all Apple items. Are you suggesting that you looked at a 41 Bleu de France Kilim single Tour band in person? The Hermes store would not have that item yet (as it is a series 10 item) and it doesn't come in that configuration anyway (size 46 only). Perhaps you viewed the Celeste Kilim band which is a more robins egg blue and a series 9 release? On pricing, the 42 is 1249, 46 is 1299, and Ultra 2 is 1399. Sounds like he was very confused on all these different sizes and offerings. Regardless, the smaller watch size will NOT have a compatible band in the new bleu de France kilim band.
Yeah the Hermes sport band isn’t “ultra” style. Now they need to make an Hermes silicone/fkm ocean band 🤤
Some do but they won’t have any leather bands. Like the regent street one in London sells Hermes watches and the other stores don’t (I believe) but you won’t be able to see leather bands.
I noticed that some YouTubers have already gotten their hands on the Series 10, but I haven't seen any videos on the Hermès edition yet. I've already bought the previous Milanese loop and link bracelet in stainless steel to match the silver titanium finish. I just really hope they'll match well. Has anyone heard if the Hermès version has a specific finish like the other titanium colors, or is it just polished titanium?
Also, regarding the list of Apple Stores carrying the Hermès watches—it's surely very outdated. It barely includes cities outside the US and UK. Does anyone from Europe know if their local Apple Store has previously sold Hermès models?
