Ordered my Hermes Clown a half hour after preorder started and received a 9/21 delivery date - no regression yet, hoping it holds
My Hermes clown just switched to preparing for shipment this morning with 9/21 delivery.
Hello, on the Hermès website is the Series 4 with the Single Tour 44mm strap in the Colour Feu available. On the Apple Website is this combination not available. Is it an error on the Hermès website or exclusive combination in the official Shop ?
I saw this on the Hermès AU online store too. The single tour also comes with the 40mm case, and a double tour feu Epsom with the 40mm case.
It seems to be the first time that a watch combo is exclusive to the Hermès shop and not Apple online?
A little confused here. I'm considering buying the Hermes Indigo Swift in 44mm. Does each Hermes model only receive one Hermes watch face? For example, does the clown Hermes only receive the two-tone and will not have the Roman numerals?
On the Indigo Swift product listing (https://www.apple.com/shop/buy-watc...steel-stainless-steel-bleu-indigo-single-tour) it shows an Hermes watch face, but will I have access to the previous Roman Numeral Hermes watch face?

The situation with the AW3 is that all Hermès AW3s get all of the Hermès faces: Roman numerals and regular.
The WatchOS 5 update did not give the two-tone faces to the AW3.
The assumption is that all Hermès AW4s will get every Hermès face: Roman numerals, regular and two-tone.
Watches know which model they are, so they know which faces they can let you use. But they don’t know which strap you’re using and it would be odd for Apple to send the two-tone face only to people purchasing the clown strap as a complete watch. Since the clown strap is available as a separate purchase it wouldn’t be fair to not let people who buy it as an extra strap not have access to the face which is designed to pair with it.
The new watch faces have colour all the way to the edge of the new screen sizes of the S4.
If these faces are replicated on the S3, it would emphasise the large bezels on the older models and I don’t think Apple would want that.
Probably not the right place, but If anyone is intertested in a Hermès series 3 watch with 2 years of Apple care of a Colvert calf band? 42mm
I think yes for the S4. I don’t have a S3 Nike so I don’t know if the S4 faces got included in watchOS 5 for S3.
It will be interesting to see if Apple changed the Hermes boxes design as they have changed the way the standard watches come and now provide the watch band separate (which is probably much better logistically then pre packaging all the bands).
It looks like its been changed to match the box style of the other models...except for the orange color. Wonder if they'll have an orange protective sleeve on the watch?
That box is from apple.com’s Hermès watch page, and the sleeve is from the hilarious iJustine’s unboxing video.
I would point out that the Hermes boxes last year on the S3 were different depending on the model purchased. Some people had long boxes and some had square ones. That’s not to say that Apple hasn’t changed them like in the photo, as they probably have. But we will see tomorrow.
I’m kinda hoping it is a new box. I already have last year’s box, lol. Plus having a separate strap box will be convenient.
A mate of mine just picked up the 44mm clown strap from Melbourne Australia.
He confirmed that it’s in a rectangular box.
