The Apple Watch Hermès Collection, a deep collaboration between Apple and Hermès is now available from the Apple Online Store after being initially only available at very selected locations throughout the world. Up until now only two stores in Australia got the collection, two in Sydney leaving Melbourne and many other major locations out.
Apple closely worked with Hermès – Apple designing the Watch, complete with a stainless steel finish, sapphire display (the second hardest material in the world, second only to Diamond), however the leather straps have been handmade by Hermès artisans in France. Unique to the collection is also the watch face itself, which has been re-interpreted by Apple with Hermès typography.
With leather straps handmade by Hermès artisans in France and an Hermès watch face re-interpreted by Apple designers in California, Apple Watch Hermès is a product of elegant, artful simplicity
The collection features 10 models which vary in the type of leather band, the size of the Apple Watch (38mm or 42mm) and the colour of the leather bands:
Double Tour
The extra-long band of the Double Tour wraps elegantly twice around the wrist. Available in a 38-mm stainless steel case with Hermès leather bands in four colours: Fauve, Étain, Capucine and Bleu Jean.
Single Tour
The classic Hermès design. The buckle recalls those on the straps of a horse’s girth, a nod to the equestrian heritage of Hermès. Available in 38-mm and 42-mm stainless steel cases with Hermès leather bands in Fauve and Noir. The 38-mm case is also available with a Capucine leather band.
Cuff
Inspired by equestrian fixtures, the finely worked modern cuff in signature Hermès leather is adapted to allow the heart rate sensor to stay in contact with the wrist. Available in a 42-mm stainless steel case with an Hermès leather band in Fauve.
