@Camilo Simon i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and im in the hacking process atm. Takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
We're on series 10 now and Apple is still using the same band setup. The series 10 is significantly thinner and lighter and is still compatible with these bands. At some point, the end user has to consider if they've gotten their $300 or so out of the watch bands. Now is not, 'some point,' since they're still viable. Solid buy, in my opinion. Especially if you're an aficionado of fine leather.
Thanks to you I bought the Hermès model. Your philosophies matched my own, so you tipped my bank card over the edge. I think it’s worth it, it’s the attention to detail you describe, this way it replaced my analog Swiss luxury watch as my everyday.
It’s funny because I have the green Apple Watch 7 and I get quite a lot of people ask “is that green” “ah nice” it’s the watch case I’m talking about but it’s a dark green imo nice none the less I just got a Hermes strap to show it off abit more but not really for that intent
My biggest issue is the Hermes bands all of them start to split on the edges of the leather within a years time. I wish they made the watch straps last more than one year of steady use. Otherwise I love how beautiful and soft they are. Also I would highly recommend for daily use, if you are ok with buying a new band each year. The watch faces are pretty amazing too…
I’ve had a Hermès band for 3 years and still looks like it did when I bought it. It’s the lighter brown/grey color. Forgot what it was called. But I’ve received many compliments on it. Just ordered the orange leather single strap - this will go on my series 4 aluminum. Thought of upgrading the watch but put the money into the strap instead. Nothing wrong with the watch.
My wife had the series 2 Hermes and now the 5. I also have the regular Apple series 4 aluminum and a series 4 stainless. My black stainless series 4 was hers, and she bought a Hermes band for it. People buy the bands separately, because of the color choices. Previous Apple Hermes were limited to brown. The series 5 has a few nice color choices. My wife got the orange. Orange is a genuine Hermes color. The watch comes with two bands, one leather, one rubber. I call it rubber. Both are orange. She wears the watch daily, usually with the rubber band. I liked the look of the black, but she made the right choice. The pink/ orange face matches both bands perfectly and is an absolutely killer look for a lady.
i have a series 4 hermes with deployment and just last week chafes the leather band for a new nylon band they just released . i will only wear hermes bands . the orange sport band is awesome and wear it every time i’m in the pool! apple watch is the best watch
I was wearing a cheap leather strap on my Apple Watch once at a H and M and the guy at check out was like “oh damn is that a Hermès?!?!” Lol. I plan to buy a real Hermès strap for my SE Apple Watch.
When you own an iPhone 5s/6/6Plus it’s a worth of using it cause it supports the older iPhones but for latest models iPhone, it’s just a legendary collections to keep at. any bands that same sizes as the series 4 with 40-44mm should be fitted and even with SE also the same as long it has the same band sizes and display.
4:53 “if there was a quality issue with the strap” … yeah there’s definitely a quality issue, it’s plain for all to see at 5:11 -the leather complete discolors from caramel to brown. Calling this defect “patina” blows my mind (brilliant marketing on Hermes and other leather makers)
I had the same model and the black edging is rubbing off on both sides where I pull to remove the Watch 🙁 I had it replaced and it did the same a month later. I believe I see the same issue with yours.
I am eager to order my Hermes apple watch. I REALLY love the deployment band but am wondering if it would be possible to add a hole to the band to accommodate my smaller wrist? Thoughts?? I really appreciate your reviews.
I was considering this model mainly because I absolutely hate seeing scratches on my casing which has happened on the gold stainless steel I currently have. No issues with the screen just the micro scratches on the casing. I hoped that the PVD coating would be more durable but I've been disappointed with that. With the silver stainless steel, I was able to polish it out. I understand that the Hermès versions have a DLC coating, which I understand is stronger than PVD on the cheaper stainless steel models. How has it held up for you? Are there micro scratches on the Hermès casing as well? Looking forward to your answers. Thank you for being one of the few real life reviews on this!
The silver stainless steel Hermes is identical to the regular silver stainless steel. No special coating, micro scratches very easily. Now the space black might have some special coating, not too sure, but I am here to tell you the silver stainless steel doesn't.
Wow. Incredible review. Incredible video format and excellent narration and delivery of your information. Your video kept me interested and engaged. Utilizing different shots with voice overs keep you listening but focused. Equally as important it’s just good content and feels like a genuine review. I’m not familiar with your page but I will be subscribing!
Hello, good afternoon, I need help, I am about to buy an apple watch Hermes series 4 or 5, but I would like to know what is the difference between the faces. I already know the technical specifications, but I would like to know more about the exclusivity that the series 5 has over the 4. Could you help me with that? Best regards.
I've been wearing my series 3 stainless steel apple watch for 2 years. Refuse to update software, it works great! The updates are designed to slow down your watch... forcing you to buy a new one.
Agree with Emmy. My wife had the series 2 Hermes, but upgraded to the series 5 only because she wanted cellular. We have both had Apple watches since the first gen. The series 2 is still one of my favorite watches. The features on the new watches are just not worth upgrading. We are seniors, and the much publicized ECG function is a joke. It won’t give results if you are exercising, and your heart rate is over a 100.
Your content is so very well executed, I hope your subscriber count picks up soon. Thank you for the opinions and information presented, it's much appreciated.
Subscriber count is a byproduct of engaging content, so that's on me. Very happy to have you here all the same and thanks for the feedback and for watching!
Hey, have you seen the gold color band from Hermes? Its slightly lighter than fauve colorway. I was wondering would that develop a patina like this as well? Confused between the 2 colors, they look very similar in pictures.
There’s a slight difference in colour, but the biggest difference is the leather. Swift leather is a softer leather and Barenia is one of the original saddle leathers (also rare and generally more expensive). From what I’ve seen I think Barenia patinas the best.
@@viralchopra917 It’s still a leather so if I had to guess it would develop a patina, but Berenia is famous for it’s patina. I wish I had more information for you… I’m more familiar with the leather on their bags than watches. I’m thinking of getting the Space black double tour in swift leather.
Not Really Rocket Science yeah I did some research and it turns out you’re right, but I’m probably going to stick with my regular watch. Those are some very cool faces though
My wrist size is 7,7 inches. At the 45 mm, in the penultimate hole of the leather bracelet. Late answer, but Hermes and arm circumference is something very special and rarely answered.
I love the Hermes faces. That's the big selling point for me. But is it worth $500 just for those faces? Eh? I had the Watch Series 2 in Stainless for 3 years. It was beautiful but too heavy. It was always falling down on my wrist, so I went back to aluminum when I bought the Series 5. For the same price you can buy the Nike version with 3 sets of special faces, so that was a better value. The only other benefit I can see with Hermes is the warranty is better. That probably adds $100 of value. I've had the Series 5 for a year now and I've been happy with the reduced weight. I bought several knock-off Hermes bands for 1/10th the price of the real thing. (In fact 5 bands costs less than one real one). They work just fine (probably made on the same assembly line). So, at some point I may splurge and get a Hermes version, but for a product that quickly goes obsolete, it's truly a luxury purchase.
What a great review. I just picked up a black SS one with a black Hermès band - and this really made me appreciate the band more. No deployment clasp though :( darn it!
When Apple Watch Series 4 was announced, my cellular carrier wouldn’t support eSIM on Apple Watch. Paying extra just for Hermès and not being able to use the LTE capability wasn’t really worth it for me, so I just got the aluminum version. In the meantime my carrier started supporting eSIM and now I can somehow justify getting the Hermès ⌚️ 😉
Great job on the video and worth the wait. I share your sentiments. I think that when you put that beautifully worn band onto a new Watch, it will be gratifying in a way only us watch nerds understand. I skipped the 5 and at this point I may just wait for the 6. That said, if the 6 doesn’t offer any truly significant changes, I’ll by the then “old” Series 5 at a discount and spend the savings on an Hermes’ band.
Lol they are not gonna change how bands work with the Apple Watch all old bands will always work with the new Apple watch’s they already stated this years ago
its a nice band , but if you thing about leather and asambly complicity , work force, band its overpriced, i can make you 100% crocodile / ostrich/ snake apple watch band with 100% hand stitch and vegetal taned leather on the back, custom size and holes also custom deployment clasp for 200 to 250$ depends on the order.
Your videos are really nice. They are pretty and your explanations are so objective.. you just explain subjectivity in some things.. but are objective everywhere else. Also, the necessary appeal and saying “you don’t have to buy it every year” is a great thing and you don’t hear many reviewers saying that.. I just got my series 4 off eBay. LTE version for just 250 bucks. Love it. Ticks all the boxes for me.
"the other leather bracelet from apple are unpleasant" ... for your little part of skin in your wrist ... yes sure... so you recommand a 500€ bracelet for a watch that have a 5yo life maximum... HOW SHIT IS THAT ?
Got a regular Series 6 with a sport band, and I like it, and my daughter has a Series 3 with the same kinda band, and she also likes it. Guess I‘m never going to buy a 5626374737274 usd. leather band
So helpful thank you. I wasn’t 100% sold. I definitely don’t want it for the “flex” I wanted it for the quality. The crappy $20 knock offs from Target just don’t cut it.
I don’t subscribe randomly and/or easily… you just earned another subscriber. Thanks for the time in putting together the video.
Your review was the deciding factor in purchasing this color strap.
That orange is pretty to tho...
@@bsaw00 I’m torn, the black looks slick but the orange is iconic (and very nice looking)

I've had series 2, series 3 and 4 with your same strap: it's so beautiful !

I don't have an Apple Watch both of my sisters have Apple Watch but
I'm getting an Apple Watch Series 6 on Black Friday Shopping Next Month tho
Hermes Apple Watch + amazing video quality + drives a Volvo = subscribe
Does the deployment strap exist for 40 mm
awesome! Looking forward for the series 5 video
Series 5 video hot off the pixels, I hope you'll check it out.
I live like 50m away from the Hermès main shop in downtown Paris and you sure did raise my attention on this watch... thanks for your feedback!
Great video. I had no idea the band would change to a deeper color. The orange is awesome!!
Finally! Thank you 👍🏻
Thanks for tuning in, I sincerely appreciate it.
I wish they still sold this color in the Apple store. Really like the way this one ages. I might pickup the Ebene. Thanks for sharing.
They do.
@@mikemo949 not in deployment buckle ;-/
agreed, it ages great 👌🏻
I ordered a series 7 hermes
The patina on this thing is out of this world
Still using this band 32+ months later?
I like the content you talked about at ~6:00 cos i was at the time wondering if anybody would notice it’s an Hermès edition watch LOL
I bought Hermes band for husband and he really loves it.

When you only upgrade the watch itself, will it still have the hermes watch faces?
Hermes Watches have Hermes Watch faces installed.
Make more videos…….please 🙂
How did you get that Apple Watch face from the first review??? It was a really fancy white face
That face is exclusive to the Hermes Apple watches and comes loaded with those Watches.
Not Really Rocket Science yeah I did some research and it turns out you’re right, but I’m probably going to stick with my regular watch. Those are some very cool faces though
Who would have thought that a leather strap would outlast a watch. That is the problem I have with the Apple Watch.
Love your review

On Apple Watch ultra they fit. The band will still be working for a while. So do not buy the watch it’s waste. Buy only the band

Do you think Apple watches need to change the outter shape?! 🤔
They won't. Because of OS updates. It would be too hard to have so many shapes and sizes of OS and all the apps to update each year.
They want to be known as apple watch from afar like white airpods pro, no other color.
Got a regular Series 6 with a sport band, and I like it, and my daughter has a Series 3 with the same kinda band, and she also likes it. Guess I‘m never going to buy a 5626374737274 usd. leather band

Try a Rolex watch once. You will never wear an Apple Watch again.
You will. I do too 😉Maybe not every Apple Watch, but a Hermes.
