Is the new silver titanium case very similar to the old stainless steel case?
Can you please put the two watch side by side and compare the display area using that all white face that you have? Thanks a lot.
Got a tip for us?

Aethetically, I don't find this band attractive at all. My preference is still good old fashioned Hermes leather bands. Have you considered getting one from a local boutique? Is there a color you like?
I bet someone’s grandma actually could knit it better—maybe slip those edge stitches purlwise (IYKYK)!
I also ordered my Series 10 with the Torsade from Apple, though in Navy. I'm curious how I like it in person. However, does anyone know if Apple accepts exchanges of just the band, if I want to swap it for a different one? Or does it end up being a return of the whole watch+band?
The new Maritime face looks great on the Ultra. Would love to see a few pics or a short video of the Regatta timer function if you get a chance!
I've not seen a lot online about the Series 10 Hermes. Except for this:

So I just picked up my S10 Natural Titanium, when I use my old S6 Hermes bands, there is a bit of difference in color from the SS lugs on the bands, but honestly unless you are really really looking at them its hard to tell.
To me it looks like someone's Grandma knitted them a watch band, I have to say I do not like it at all. It just does not give that High End Hermes vibe.
That looks super ugly IMO. Does not scream "quality high end band" at all!
Oh that is interesting, I think we’re all curious if you have any pics to share of the Nat Titanium watch with Hermes silver connectors? 😁
I love that combo. That’s what I ordered to and am waiting for my delivery here in Los Angeles. Along with my green and blue kiln bands and iPhone 16PM!!!
My 42mm with Noir Kilim arrived a few minutes ago. it looks noticeably larger than my 40mm, especially with the screen on - coming from a Series 5 it feels huge!
As promised, here are some photos of the 42mm with the old 38mm link bracelet and 40mm milanese loop bands; I do not see the same issues with fitment that @Bona Mish did regarding the lugs protruding, both look pretty flush to me.

I see nothing in the 'care and handling' about polishing or PVD coatings etcetera, but that may not mean anything either way.
Congrats on the new watch. I bet it's a big difference from S5. The difference from S8 to S10 was bigger than I expected.
To be clear, protruding lugs occurs when using a new 42mm band on an old 41mm case. It's obviously why Apple are offering 40mm and 42mm options for some bands. As you say, 41/40/38mm bands sit basically flush on the new case - there's a slight inset but it's minor and hardly noticeable especially once on the wrist.
Just received my Watch and Bands. I took some photos of the Torsade Navy and Vert Moyen Kilim. My Torsade doesn't look as rough as the one posted earlier. I also took a photo of the Watch with my Old Orange Leather Band. The difference between the SS Lugs and the Polished Ti Body looks to be extremely minimal.

Oh wow. That green Kilim looks perfect in your photos. It looked way too light on the site.
Do you think it’s as dark as your photos in real life?
Thanks for sharing these pics! The new 42mm looks noticeably bigger!
Do you mind showing both with a white watch face so we can see the difference in display size?
The Vert Moyer looks awesome in green and looks much darker than in Apple‘s pics. If that is the real color that is a winner! How comfortable are those bands?
Is it only me, or do they match perfectly colour wise? Of course, I'm just seeing a photo so the colours might not be accurate, but what do you think when looking at them in real life compared to having the bracelet/loop on the previous gen watch?
Thank you for posting these photos, I'm going to get the green Kilim because it looks WAY better in your photos vs. the website!
I grabbed a Series 10 Hermes with the Blue de France Kilim band. I’ll primarily wear it with the sport loop though because it’s better for workouts.
Quick impressions:
- Watch feels light and obviously much lighter then Ultra 2
- Easily noticed the thinness compared to my series 7
- Bezels are much more obvious than the 7
- Battery is dropping fast but could be due to initial day 1 setup
I’ve worn it about an hour now around the house and there multiple visible scratches on the titanium finish. I don’t mind this, but just reporting what I am seeing.
Gonna give it a few days. I’m still torn between keeping this or my Ultra 2.
