Hermès Edition Owners Thread

Edit: Never mind! After restarting the watch and phone twice, it fixed it!

Anyone else having an issue with iOS and watchOS 26.5 where the Spring 2026 colors (Capucine, Trench, Paille) appear on the watch but not in the Watch app on the phone (and if you edit a face on the watch and select one of the new Spring 2026 colors it immediately deselects the color).

It’s like there’s a mismatch between the colors available on iOS and watchOS, so watchOS won’t let you select them.

This bug was in 26.4 when the new colors were introduced. Same resolution. Rebooting both devices resolved it. Weird to see it persist.

Ah! I was upgrading this pair of devices directly from iOS 18 to iOS 26.5, so that must be why. I had to restart everything several times, because at first the new faces wouldn't even install on the watch. Very buggy.

I also see one of the other long running bugs still isn't fixed: if I long-press the watch face to enter the face selection view, when I go back to the watch face the crown no longer responds to scrolling (to open the Smart Stack or notifications). I've only ever seen this bug on Hermès watches. Because I frequently changes faces, I'm constantly seeing this bug. (it's easily fixed: just press the crown to go to the home screen, and that "resets" it and it works again... but still, very annoying)

Seems like a legit bleu jean double tour? I'm thinking about it. https://www.ebay.com/itm/267611774989

These are the two links I check each eBay buy:

  1. https://forums.macrumors.com/thread....1999198/page-612?post=33595583#post-33595583

Scroll down to the bottom for the Hermes section. Also keep in mind that the box is UV light reactive to showcase a security seal.

Most of these you can really only confirm in person. Could maybe ask for a clearer picture of the imprinted date code.

I also don’t buy from anyone with less than 100% rating. Someone with a 98.5% rating screwed me.
