Hell, seem to be a lot of sartorial experts on here all of a sudden. Not something you expect on a tech forum.

Yeah, I'm sorry, I should have made that distinction. I'm not exactly sure about conventions on the female side.
Ultimately, I'm sorry I got off track. My point of all of this was simply to say that I don't think the Cuff is really any sportier than the standard Fauve Barenia single/double tour.
I know. I think this turning into a oddly fun forum. It's become kind of a tech expert/watch expert hybrid.
Hmmmmm. No idea if I'd wear that with a formal dress. At a minimum, dress would have to match the color of the leather, I suppose.
Talking about the Cuff band, to my eyes, it looks unweirdly when sitting in a display case. I suppose it could look good when worn on the right size wrist, but haven't seen any pictures of it actually on a wrist.
Yeah, I'm not sure that any of the Apple Watches would be right for a women's formal dress.

This was on a table with MacBooks.... I am not joking. As I said, might as well have been a new trackpad. I am sure San Francisco has a vault with Editions, but I got my watch, so, for me it is OK. I prefer the fact that they sold me the watch. In Hermes they put a watch on my wrist but never sold me one. In fact, I have been waiting for weeks for them to call me!
Agreed, these are sporty, and not to be worn in a suit for example.
Yes you can wear it with a suit, but I think it looks better without a tie AND with a matching Hermes buckle in business casual or jeans.
It is just a different look that I don't think goes with formal or black tie event.
You can wear it as a single tour too by removing the cuff.
So does the cuff do anything other than make it look different? I mean, does it make it more comfortable to wear, or make it more stable, or anything like that?
It is the MOST comfortable watch I have worn.
I'm usually not a fan of leather, but Hermes leather is on another level.
I thought the cuff would be too wide as I have very small wrists. I thought it would look weird. But it is not an issue. The watch is more stable than Apple's bands and much softer than Apple's leather band. I haven't tried Apple's classic buckle, but can't imagine it be more comfortable.
It is also narrow enough that I can tuck it under a shirt sleeve, which I thought I wouldn't be able to do.
It is one of the most beautiful and comfortable watches I have bought.
That is great, but my question was, what is the difference between wearing wth the cuff, and without the cuff (as a single tour)?
Oh OK.
Well, it is a lot more stable, it is also warmer and I wouldn't say it is softer, but since there is more leather touching the skin, I would say you are feeling more leather that is soft.
Regarding stability, the cuff won't slide. I am not wearing that tight (it doesn't leave a mark) and it just doesn't move.
It is a warm cuff. I am sure in warm weathers (90+F or 26+C) my wrist would sweat. I feel like a tennis player wearing this like a wrist warmer.
Ah, gotcha thanks. Sounds like a fun thing to wear. Might go try it on at the Hermes store one of these days, though I know it wouldn't fit me because it only comes with a 42 watch.
