Looks awesome. I like the thin braclet paired with it.

Thanks! One of the things I was surprised by was that not only do you get the Hermes faces, but all the other faces have Hermes "features" for lack of a better term. For instance the Chrono face has a custom Hermes color with orange hour and minute hands.

How were you able to get the Hermes addition?? I did a bit of research because i really wanted it but was unable to get it online and the nearest place to get it was in Houston which is about 7 hours away from where i live.

I bought it at a New York Apple Store. There are only a handful of stores (Hermes and Apple) and can't be ordered online. If you are thinking about getting one perhaps you might know someone in a city that sells them?

I was going to say that if you really want the Hermes edition, you'll find a way to get it. A simple seven-hour drive isn't much of an obstacle.

But I'd be rude to say such a thing. 😉

I happen to like the white sport band with gold, classic and clean. I've never been a big fan of some of the colored bands but if you have the right clothing with them they do look nice. Even coordinate with some of the shoe colors.


The next sport band I get I'm pretty sure will be the red. Looks great on all of your watches BTW!

My long awaited Christmas present!! I love the rose gold, although I will admit finding bands that work is tough. I got this one from Minardi Belts on Etsy, it is Italian leather and definitely higher end on the price range but I love how unique it is so it is totally worth it to me!

Looks good! The SBSS really creates a very clean line with the face and band. Look forward to seeing what bands you got to go with it. Enjoy. It's fun exploring what you can do with it.

Only really been on my wrist for a few hours. I love this watch. You're completely right about the line, and it actually slips out of sight quite easily, when checking your watch. The light plays a bit with the curves and ends up hiding the lines. The whole thing ends up looking like one curved, shiny, blacked out face, and I love that. It looks borderless.

Found out that all watch cases don't have that blocky, G-shock look, so it's actually possible to still have that regular stainless steel look, if you just put on a slim case. The black stainless steel look seems like it would be harder to replicate, because of the coating.

When you say "watch case" are you referring to case covers? If so, just a heads up on the SS watch and watch covers. I tried a clear silicone thin case on my SS AW; and on the first day noticed it was leaving really fine scratches on the SS case just positioning the cover on the watch I guess. Hadn't even gone out with it on. I had read some negative reviews on the product for those with SS watches before I ordered so made sure to check my watch before and after using the first time. Took it off and threw it out after seeing all the scratches after having it on for essentially only minutes. I don't think scratches happen or maybe just aren't as noticeable on the aluminum watch because of the different finish. The "Ladies Only" thread under the Watch Accessories board area has lots of cases in photos posted along with reviews. Most of the people there are using cases on their sport watches though. I suppose the SS can be buffed out but not sure about the finish on the SBSS version.

Here's a post with my review of my thin clear silicone case: Ladies Only Thread... Accessories and more. Post 472 on the same page shows the exact product I purchased. Most of the case covers are reviewed before that post.

Thanks for mentioning this. It's crazy, because somebody else just mentioned it to me, about 20 minutes ago.

I think that a screen protector is no longer a choice anymore. I want to bring this into the gym with me. I'm not going to bring it into that place without any protection; that would be asking for it.
