Apple sent a survey today about my S10 purchase.
Standard questions, except they asked what watch would I buy if the Series 10 wasn’t available?!? (Are they thinking about getting rid of the Series lineup and pushing the Ultra for high end and the SE for low end???) They also asked me why didn’t I buy an Ultra.
They also asked for feedback on the Torsade band. I was very honest in that it was junk.

It would be disappointing if they did that for sooo many reasons.
I had a similar survey when I bought my Series 9. I also was of the same of mind that I wondered if Apple is trying to gauge if they need to cut out the “middle” tier and have only the SE and then the Ultra.
No you won’t get 3% back, but if you pay via Apple Pay you will get 2% back.
Seems it's currently out of stock here in Germany. Ordered mine on release day with my favourite leather band directly from Hermès, and ordered the Grand H Satiné band from the Apple Store site two weeks ago. But it really was available only for a few hours, so I was lucky.
They pop up in stock and don't last but a few hours. I'd continue to check daily as they have been popping up more on Hermes website but they usually sell out within a few hours.
Feeling fruity 🍊 Feu Hermès Double Tour
I just got my Kilim band in orange for my ultra 2 and it’s incredible. It looks very premium luxury. It feels amazing.
I have a couple of the Hermes leather bands but they stain so easily on hot days because of just a little perspiration and never mind if I really start to sweat. I feel if you tend to sweat easily the darker leather would be the go to if you really want leather. But this kilim band is the very best band for me.

Looks better to the right… the watch will stay in place as the bracelet falls slightly over your hand. Otherwise the bracelet will tend to fall over your watch and look crowded
How do you like it in comparison to the leather?Speaking of Orange Kilim, mine came in today! Ordered Tues night, arrived Fri morning. Top shelf shipping from Hermes. Yea, this won't be leaving my wrist for a long time. Pardon the spammed photos lol
PSA: Grand H is currently available in the German Apple Store (all sizes and either with the watch or band only).

I ask a friend to take my phone away, so I am not tempted. For now. 🫣
Had to order it after all those beautiful pics here 🫠😬🤤
Also, how expensive is a divorce?! Asking for a friend with a watch band problem…

Divorce: expensive.
Constantly feeling the heavy weight of the Grand H on your wrist reminding you that you chose stylish luxury over your marriage: priceless.
The only negative to the Grand H after almost two weeks of wear is that I’m finding it near impossible to find a time I want to wear any of my other Hermes bands!
Loving the Grand H like everyone else. Just brushing my fingers on the steel links gives me joy 😝
But anyone find that with minor changes in wrist size during the day, sometimes it feels too loose, sometimes it feels too tight?

My Apple link bracelet does this. I’d say normal. Yay humanity.
The down side to a butterfly clasp. Needed micro adjustments on the fly.
My Omega has an adjustable clasp, really good for intra-day adjustments.
That’s the only thing the GH needs.

Agreed, but I also think it needs to be made out of titanium to match the watch material. I won’t even consider it because of this. I wish they used a variation of the H08 titanium watch band because it is so beautiful. Saves me money at least.
