Hi there,

Does anyone have a photo of Hermes straps on the SS Graphite?
I have a feeling the SS lugs will clash too much with the graphite but I'm wondering if the space black lugs of the Noir strap would work.

Thanks!

I had a post with photos of 13 straps paired with the SS Graphite. One is the indigo Hermes single tour, you can check it out to see the combo. It does clash a bit imo, but both are glossy material so that helps...

The space black lugs will match pretty well with it. I returned my graphite but have the Noir band as well as the Space black link band and they paired well with the graphite. The Stainless Steel will definitely clash with it though.

Thanks for the replies! I actually managed to get a Noir band today (figured why not, I can always return it). And it's doesn't clash as much as SS would but it's still just enough to bother me.
I love the Graphite SS look but I feel it's a bit limited in that sense...

I ended up returning both and going to get an Hermes watch. Absolutely love the look of Graphite but I want to be able to wear more straps and mismatched lugs - though not a problem for everyone - bother me personally.

That would bother me. I have the silver stainless steel and wont wear a leather strap if the lugs don’t match the watch body. Oddly enough, it doesn’t bother me if its the rubber sports strap, only the leather.

Agreed - I ended up returning the graphite and getting an Hermes watch.
