Check out the dedicated Hermès thread. Apparently the Hermès Watches are actually the only ones not getting the Nike faces. So random.
I’d say not random but makes sense. The Hermès watch is branded underneath with Hermès being etched in to it. So adding Nike faces to it would be as weird as seeing a Nike logo on one of their bags in store, as far as they’re concerned. I’m not surprised the big H wasn’t up for Nike branded faces. It’s a shame though, no doubt.

What is the link of that threat?
I have a Hermès version and a bit disappointed not to have the Nike faces although I guess it’s probably to do with brand licensing and there not being an agreement in place for apple/Hermès/Nike to all appear on the same watch
 
I was looking to order a silver Nike watch to replace my series 6 Nike. The series 8 Nike doesn't seem to be available in the silver, but in Starlight. I think I'm going to have to check it out in person before I order.

It’s available in silver. I have one coming.

I guess it must be true that Nike faces are on watch OS 9 but my phone app lists it‘s on Watch OS 9 yet I do not have the faces. Strange. maybe in a future update…?

Assuming not a Hermès watch, fully closing the watch app on the phone. I had to do that to get them showing. Otherwise restart both devices.
 
No new Nike branded watches this year.

You just pick the silver aluminium case and add the Nike strap. Faces are available on all except Hermes.

It won’t say Nike on the back of the watch of course.
 
Or buy any watch then (apart from Hermes) and add a Nike strap. 🤷‍♂️


Yep. Apps and faces are now free from what I understand. Literally the only difference is the Nike logo missing frlm the back of the watch. Unless I’m mistaken?

They look good on S5 Ceramic. Had never seen them before but actually been using them for a few days now👍

Thanks, that worked! Even though I thought I’d done both restarts already, maybe I didn’t. Anyway, always nice to have new watch faces.
Also yeah mine is just regular AW7, not Hermes.

Thank you!

I called apple support to complain that in the September 7th, 2022 (at the minute 17:30) they announced that the Nike faces would be available to ANY Apple Watch.
They confirmed me that and I told them that Hermes Watches are not showing those faces. They thought that must be a bug.
They scanned my phone and watch, and escalated this to engineers.
They will get back at me this Friday.
Fingers crossed that they just forgot to add it to AW Hermès.🤞🏻

Good luck keep us posted! I think you mean Nike faces (?) … I’d enjoy some bike* faces personally! 🚴🏻‍♂️
 
WellZ I got the official answer.
The engineers replied back to the Apple support assistant. They said that the Apple Watch Hermes won’t have the Nike faces, at least not now. And that is the expected behavior.
:/
