My story on the Hermès Series 2:
Yesterday I got a call from Hermes Munich that my reservation for a Apple Watch Series II, SS Single Tour Barenia with folding buckle arrived and was ready for shipment but also yesterday after visiting the Apple Store Amsterdam I decided to buy another AW Series 2, the Apple Watch Series 2 Space Black with rubber band and an extra black nylon band.
As I own the Hermès original Apple Watch (and would never sell it) buying yet another steel watch would not justify the cost of almost € 1600, and if I would own the series 2, I would never wear the original Hermès again.
So soon I will have best of both worlds: an original Hermès with leather straps and a Series 2 with rubber and nylon.
With Series 3 it is time to have a careful look at the next Hermès again
