My problem with these types of watches is that they have a very limited lifecycle as you say, so I would not invest in the very expensive version. At least you get a perfectly sweeping second hand, like with the Grand Seiko Spring Drive lol.
Well they are supported for at least 4 years so that’s not too bad for a smart watch. And you can always sell the strap later for quite a lot of money 😉
It’s depends. When you say with limited life cycle sure, there are 1000 watches to choose from. However, these Apple Watch last well. M still using Series 3 Nike Edition and m planning to upgrade to Hermes which release this fall due to hardware limitation for upcoming update. Still have great battery life and ageing well and will use it on regular basis. For me it a healthy upgrade and satisfied for what I got out of it! In short, you can relate to metaphor that you buy Rolls Royce not to sale!
I own the 41 mm Hermès double tour barenia which cost me 1500$ i still love it and wear it every single day but the barenia leather today after 15 months looks literally bad and need to buy it again but can’t find it today they only have the Gold color , not the barenia…. Will wait for series 8 Hermès to come out and see what band they have to offer My only complaint is that those leather Hermès band don’t look so good after 6 months….
Yes. The secret is to be very selective who and what can send you notifications. With the right setup it will actually remove stress. Whenever I check my phone for a notification I end up checking other stuff and waste time. With the Apple Watch it was more targeted. But then - I only had the very first one. And it eventually died after 5 years.
If u merely just want to get a feel of the Hermes Apple watch and have some cash to spare, i’d say its worth a go. Keep the watch in good working condition and u can probably resell the watch at a good price.
Hi I'm not for the connected watch but frankly the Apple Watch beat all the others brands. The Hermes are lovely. On my personal opinion some years ago I was using a Sony Smartwatch series 2 brand new cost around 250€. After 6 months of daily use some problems come. The watch was lost his durability and accuracy ( disconnected connected not stability) but smartwatch are now a big market part especially Apple thanks
Moin Niko! I still use my AppleWatch Series 1 (it’s actually the second edition with a better processor as the Series 0). And the watch is still functioning very well. So, the Series 7 wasn’t an option for me. Maybe next year with Series 8. LG Claus
Niko, do you think that it is a little easier to get the Rolex datejust from Dubai or is it the same. I ask because I have called all ADs near me and they are all sold out of the one that I want, so when you go watch shopping, do you find more watches available or no the ADs in America would have? Are you able to order them in Dubai or no?
Id rather buy the same looking leather band on amazon for $20 and spend $400 on a Hermes bracelet to wear with the watch instead their watchband, but that’s just me
Exactly. This type of stuff is meant for rich people or people that like throwing away money. The average person wouldn’t spend this much on a watch lmao.

@@koolpep Fair enough
You’re not buying it for the watch. People buy this combo for the bands. You can easily upgrade the watch and still use the bands

I use the apple watch to track my exercise activities. Went for the 45mm midgnight aluminum version with 2 yrs apple care.

I have the gold double tour Hermes cellular in space black, with black sports band. LOVING it!!! Most enjoyable watch I’ve ever owned.
I think I need one
Hi! this video is great ! )
Nice stealth wealth piece for high net worth individuals, those in the know will know 😉
*Fancy Party*
"Nice watch, which one is it?"
"It's just an Apple Smartwatch"
Do the new swift leather bands feel stiffer/cheaper than the barenia ones?
The strap is handmade and costs as much as the watch itself :O
It’s all about the craftsmanship. But still kind of a waste of money. Might as well buy a MacBook at this point.
Nice I purchased the Titanium 7 version with stainless steel Milanese strap
Wao That's looking very much beautiful with Your wrist

Nice video. I used to have an Apple Watch long time ago but it made me very stressed so I sold it.

Hello. Good informative overview. Can you share a Hermes dial?
Niko, do you think that it is a little easier to get the Rolex datejust from Dubai or is it the same. I ask because I have called all ADs near me and they are all sold out of the one that I want, so when you go watch shopping, do you find more watches available or no the ADs in America would have? Are you able to order them in Dubai or no?
No, it will not be obsolete in 3 to 4 years, i used my series 3 stainless steel for 5 years and I just sold it recently to upgrade to a higher model.
That is paying $1.000 for a leather strap.
(Buying a gold Apple Watch is a crime).
(P.D.: liked the video, as always).
Would you use this Hermes piece on a daily basis?
Why wouldn’t you?
@@koolpep Just cause he had all the other mechanical pieces and as he already has a sporty Apple Watch
@@alenjacob1468 ahh I misunderstood. Yeah - I guess he won’t. 😆

I have the Nike Apple Watch SE, and it does pretty much the same stuff that this thing does.
so expensive
LOL what a waste of money
It’s same why woman paying for a Hermes purse? It’s for branding purposes
Will you gift me a rolex air king???? Im your biggest fan please can you give me a air king.
Absolutely disgusting. Hermes - I respect.
Apple Watch - junk!
