Has anyone tried the fauve Barenia single tour strap with a natural titanium watch? How bad do the lugs look?
I don't have the Fauve Barenia strap, or any Hermes ones but I have many Classic Buckles. And I don't see a problem with the stainless steel lugs at all. I have the natural titanium watch

Currently, only Apple Watch Hermes Space Black has Diamond-Like Carbon coating, which makes them the most durable. In addition, you get the softest and lightest leather strap. Titanium in fact is not much different from aluminum, a person a few meters from you will not even be able to notice them.

Is it really important that people standing a few meters away are able to immediately discern that you spent a little more on your Apple Watch? lol

I got a natural Ti this year, after owning nothing but silver stainless steel AWs for six years (S0, S3, S4, S6) ... I only got it because I wanted something different; so far I really like it. It's lighter than SS, has a nice sheen, and goes well with the stainless steel link bracelet. The only reason I'd get an Hermès AW would be for the exclusive watch faces (which I think look pretty cool) but not the band (not a fan of leather bands, in general). So ... for me, Hermès vs Titanium is a really easy choice.

it does not matter that they are expensive, I wanted to say that they are more beautiful and this is more noticeable
