There is more than this bug...
The oversight on Apple's part regarding the Béton background color is disappointing. It affects all the classic Hermès faces, but is especially noticeable on the Radial face. On wrist up, the contrast of white against Béton is too low for many complication to be visible, such as the current weather temperate in the center of the temperate band. It should have been set to the same dark Canopée color as the other components, instead of white. On wrist down, the current temperature is visible, but the numerals and logo are barely legible. Too bad Hermès doesn't control these quality checks instead of Apple.
Make the best out of the fact, that the contrast is underwhelming and the date is broken.
I have had an Oct 30 - Nov 6 “arrives by” estimate. Hoping to see some movement soon, the anticipation is a lot!
Lol, this is great. Of course, Apple would release this as an exclusive face on yet another new Hermès model.
Your secret is safe with me. Although, your creativity inspired me too. I settled for creating an empty contact with the circular Hermès logo. I might go with this for a while…
What a marvellous idea. 😍I will copy this, without crediting you on the dial 😇
After wearing the lighter band for a while I noticed it gotten really dirty on edges . At first I thought this happened from wearing jeans and now I am convinced it’s from a winter jacket and long sleeved shirts - it’s def great for a t-shirt climate, though. If things like that woo bug you, go with black.
Finally! I noticed that they only appear in the France tho. I wonder when they will be available in the Hermes USA site.
I ordered mine within the first hour and got a 10/29-11/5 estimate. It is is 10/29 and still “processing.“
Seems like the first big batch will drop later this week or next week, regardless if you ordered as soon as preorder opened or if you order a month later.
