Hermès Edition Owners Thread

[Mr. Y]

The Grand H has been the only Hermès band on my wrist since it arrived (with nearly a dozen other bands in my potential rotation). This year I decided to upgrade to the HS11 from HS7, despite being underwhelmed by the lack of increase in screen size (or hope for less bezel). I was tempted to order with another Grand H since mine is now scuffed up but decided to go with Bordeaux Kilim. I’m hoping from the 7 to the 11 I’ll be pleasantly surprised.

The new bands are pretty underwhelming this season (not just Hermès but especially Hermès). The Scub’H Diving looks like a cheap third party band and while the Faubourg Party looks pretty nice I can’t see it being $100 nicer than the rest of the non-leather bands. That in combination with only a minor watch update makes it easy to skip the upgrade this year.

Agreed. Bleu nuit fauhourg party band is probably the only stand out this year, but Hermes knows that so they’re charging a premium for it. Some of their previous woven bands have been pretty low quality and shown to take up the entire lug but what actually arrives is a woven band that is narrower than stock pictures. Hopefully that extra $100 means they didn’t have their interns do this years woven band.

Kilim bands are very similar to bleu glacier and rouge h that already released. Yawn

VerT mangrove is very similar to the older vert green. Only two 46mm bands interesting are the bandanna and noir Clou de Selle and maybe the faubourg party if the quality is decent.

Hi Guys,

Went for a normal S10 last year but it's back to Hermes again this year so I'm back!

Need some help!

1) I have the Kilim Single tour on my 46mm S10 and i'm on the smallest hole - It fits perfectly for most of the day but for gym etc it can get a little loose as my wrist gets sweaty or cold. I'm going for the S11 with the Grand H - which size?

Apple says:
Kilim:
46mm size fits 160–195mm wrists

Grand H:
Small fits 145–160mm wrists
Medium fits 160–175mm wrists
Large fits 175–190mm wrists

I'm guessing Medium because I wouldn't want it too tight? Or maybe Small and try to buy some spare links from someone?

The Grand H does fit a bit tight since the deployment is rigid, so I’d go with Medium.

For those of you using the now RC version of Watch OS 26, is it all stable now on Hermes watches? I know in late June there was talk of there being some real issues for Hermes watches. I held off but given less than a week away now, I figured we can live with some bugs.

Yes, as stable as it gets.

awesome thanks for that!

Yes, just screen shots saved to the Pictures app on the watch. I love the colored complications and logo so much, but I just know they'll limit them to the Ultra..... grrrr! lol

Why would they do that? I have an ultra and would prefer the f.party face. Ultra doesn’t seem to get anything fun.

I couldn’t put the trigger on the ultra Hermes 3. I have too may bands on my S10. Going to ride it this watch for another year , and probably update to the S12 depending what Apple has to offer.

I wish they wouldn't differentiate faces between the two models. I was super envious of the Maritime face for Ultra last year, while the series version received nothing. I do love the new Faubourg face, but was hoping we'd see an oversized digital display along the lines of the Maritime face.

When my S7 got to 79/80% you could tell. I would get closer to 13-16 hours. 12 if I had an activity like tennis for a few hours - it would just randomly shut down. I would have to charge it if i went for a run. So you feel it when it's bad.

My favourite Clou de Selle is back in Noir this time.

But I can only see it paired with a watch on the Hermès AU website and not sold standalone.

Clou de Selle is sold alone on Hermes Australia. It’s listed as Noir, but when you click on it, it’s the Clou de Selle. The US site is the same and I had a hard time finding the band when I ordered mine.

The annoying thing about the update on my S7 is that the battery health was on 82% (for the last 18 months ) and was waiting for it to drop below 80 imminently so I could get a battery replacement under AC+ (which as we know would be basically a new S7). It has now gone up to 86% !

That’s a huge jump!!!! Mine was at 73% & now it’s at 74%, so I’m still on par for a “battery” replacement.

Do it before it pops back up to 80% lol

 

[bricktop_at]

That orange En Mer REALLY pushed me over the edge. Exactly what I was hoping for in terms of new color options.

So, new U3 is coming to papa🤭

My S7 also went from 70% to 72% with the RC haha. In dire need of a new battery... prob leaning towards upgrading to the S11 though.
