Hermès Edition Owners Thread

[athousandbands]

The non-Ultra Hermès watch didn't get a new face this year. The Hermès Ultra exclusively got the new Marine face with a Regatta-style timer, but from what I'm reading, it may not have all the other Hermès faces of the the S10 and previous series. Someone pointed out that the Circuit-H and Lucky Horse faces are missing, but not sure if that is accurate or not. I'm really surprised that S10 and previous didn't get a new Hermès face at all this year, but no one else on the forum seems to have given much attention to that. I always looked forward to them...

I’d imagine the Circuit face doesn’t come because those bands aren’t Ultra bands? Specious and ungenerous move but feels the most obvious explanation.

It’s def a bummer we didn’t get a new face in Series watch land but I guess I’m too busy loving Flux and Reflections (with non-Hermes bands).

How odd! I'm assuming you've had no joy ordering from the Apple store app? All three bands show available for pickup for me. I could even go to the payment page, where it said no online availability but in stock in select stores.

Mind you if you try buying the S10 Hermes in Beton it won't let you add to bag...

I managed to back order the watch with Beton this morning with an expected delivery date of 31st October.

However when I saw your message about seeing that combo available for in store pick up at Regent St today I went back nothing is available including for delivery which I’m finding very odd

So is the Orange Kilim 46mm on Apple's site in the new "softer" style compared to the "older", harder 45mm?

The 46MM (MXJM3AM/A) and 45MM (MTJ03AM/A) have different part numbers so I would wager that something between them has changed.

The 46mm orange one is the softer more flexible version, I bought it.

Mind you I was only referring to the strap by itself.

Glad you managed to order the watch+strap even if it means a delay. I think inventory is coming and going at breakneck speed. The dispatch time of my S10 NatTi was cut by two weeks today.

Do you already own any other Kilim?

Here you have a few comparisons between the Hermès Satiné Grand H and the Silver Link Bracelet.

I used to love the link bracelet , but it feels cheap next to this band. The quality is really good and premium.

Looks so elegant and classy!

How did you manage to get it already? Apple and Hermès sites both say delivering at end of October.

Also what’s your wrist size in mm and did you take any links off the medium band?

I have four 45mm bands. Rouge, Khacki, blue and black. I just received a leather deployment from Hermes. 46mm. In total I have six. Four 45mm from my former S7 and two 46mm for my S10. I also have two non-deployment Hermes leather bands 45mm.

I am still looking for a great SS band for my S10 that does not have a butterfly clasp. The Apple and Hermes SS bands have a butterfly clasp, which rules them out. Any suggestions? I am not taken with the Milanese loop. I am looking for a higher quality band.

Anyone with a 45MM Noir Kilim can you lemme know the numbers written on the deployment part of the band?

Interesting the numbers on the 46mm are different.

W B1 015 on the 46mm

My 46mm is very close to the one above

 

[Bako-MacAddict]

The band in your receipt has the SS hardware. Mine has black hardware.

I have that band 45mm brand new- have never even worn it. 🤦🏻‍♀️. Came with one of the SBSS watches I purchased. It’s a beautiful band with the black hardware. Mine even came with the black felt pouch. I only wear my kilm bands so this just sits in the drawer

Yeah, I’m very picky like that too, I see where you coming from. Bummer

 

[Bandoholic]

Can anyone who has the new Beton Kilim and a SBSS watch,
Share a picture with that Combo. Wondering how they would look together.

 

[epitaphic]

Has anyone noticed that the band size specs for Kilim differ between Hermes and Apple?

42mm
140-175mm (Apple)
135-170mm (Hermes)

46mm
160-195mm (Apple)
155-190mm (Hermes)

Let us know how it holds up.

I agree that this looks very nice and jewellery-ish but I'm not sure it is 3x nicer than the link bracelet.

Also interesting how you can see that the link bracelet is clearly something Apple made and the design still looks great (iconic!) after nearly 10 years.

Anyone have any idea why the Kilms are no longer available for sale on Apple?

 

[Dstopsie]

Anyone have any idea why the Kilms are no longer available for sale on Apple?

Usually because they sold out of their initial stock which has been sporadic after launch day.

Some versions (eg 46mm orange and noir) are still available on Apple AU. The new blue and green are unavailable probably cos they’re sold out. They should come back once Hermès has made enough stock

I went to the biggest Apple Store here in WA and they happen to have in stock, but in very limited units in the 3 sizes (flagged as yellow), that's why it doesn't say in the app that its available to pick up.
I was very lucky to find them.
I had ordered both S and M in the preorder day and they were not available until oct30-nov04, but after my purchase yesterday I canceled those. Right you can't even order them online.

I also saw that some YouTubers were able to get them from the premium Apple stores (those that sell hermes watches). And this store was one of them. So my recommendation is to go to a Premium Apple Store, if you are close to one.

Yesterday I bough both S and M sizes, I got to try them out.
Each bracelet comes only with 2 removable link (one from each side), regardless of the size.
the maxim size of the small is 160mm, and the min size of the medium is 160mm too. My size is exactly 160mm and it fit perfectly with that size. that's why I am seeing the M, and returning the S. in case my wrist gets bigger later.
I need more hours of usage to see if 160mm is the right fit for me or maybe I need to add one link tho.

here is a comparison among the S and M.

believe me it is, the fact that is heavier and the finish makes it look like jewelry, and the apple one looks cheap next to it.

Thanks for sharing your experience.

I’m after the watch combo with Grand H - was there any of that for sale at your store or just the standalone bracelet?

I didn't ask because I had already the S10 purchased the the Vert kilim
