I'm considering a crazy alternative since I have a band with black hardware that I'd like to swap with silver hardware...

Would the Gold/Ecru tole band look decent with black hardware and a black watch?

Another option... Are there any other Toile or Twill bands that come with silver hardware, that would look nice with black hardware, on a black watch?

Note: I like some of the colors of the old Jumping bands, but I didn't like the design on the bands, so I've taken those out of consideration.
How about the Noir/Gold Twill Single Jump Tour? IMO that would be a good choice for a black hardware swap.

The size guides for the Grand H watch band are different on the Hermes site than on Apple’s site. The Hermes guides seem to be geared towards smaller wrists. Perhaps women? Has anyone noticed this?

No updates on Hermes’ website yet. I’m hoping for a leather 42mm option with deployment buckle. I don’t understand why leather deployment buckle has been exclusive to 46mm.

I have never seen leather deployment for the smaller watches. I have a 45mm and 46mm deployment band. I wonder why there's none for smaller watches. I only started with Hermes with the S9,so in earlier series there may have been smaller ones. There is a 42mm Kilim which uses the same deployment clasp. Given that, I can’t see why there’s none.

Looks like they’re up now. A Vert Peppermint leather for 46mm looks interesting…

I know! I’ve been wearing a 42mm Kilim with deployment buckle. It’s so convenient that it makes me not want to buy a regular strap.

The SS Grand H is even more convenient. It uses a deployment mechanism with a butterfly clasp. In 42mm.

Welcome back to the fun... 👍
Thank you. Just been having a really difficult time health wise with this inflammatory disease I have. Finally feeling a little better and realized it’s time for new Kilim colors!! The funny thing is I went to put on my orange one on Monday as I had to go to the doctor and I’m like I really need a gray one. Why haven’t they come out with a gray one and then boom yesterday I look and there’s a gray one as a new release so I was so excited.!!!

What does everyone think of the new Kilim colors???
 
Why is the light blue variant of the kilim limited to 42mm AGAIN!?!?

Edit: 46mm Bleu Acier is available from Hermès direct
I wonder if there's a mistake somewhere because the US and French websites have Bleu Acier in just 46mm whereas the Apple website has it specifically for 42mm only. Otherwise it would be weird if Hermes sold 46 and Apple sold 42 separately, wouldn't it?

Glad you are feeling better. I come to this forum from time to time, and I missed your comments quite a bit!

I love the yellow and the bleu acier. I have a 42mm watch so can only get bleu acier but I don't know if i love love it for £300. Also, I find it weird you can't get it at Hermes. I have some credit at Harrods in London and would have used that at the Hermes store there but not if Hermes isn't selling it! I do think it's one of those colours that if I don't buy, I will be annoyed with myself.

The Canadian ones are the same. 42mm with Apple and only 46mm on the Hermés site for the Bleu Acier.

I saw that too! So something is odd. I don't know what it is. Either apple or hermes are incorrect or this was their plan but who knows.
 
42 mm Hapi in Craie just popped up on the Aus Site
