It may be a little boring, but I was so excited for the navy band this Fall! Mine arrived a couple of days ago and I wore it for the first time today. Compared to noir, it is really different. I thought it might be more of a midnight blue, skewing toward black, but it's unmistakably blue!

I also immediately download the Bandbreite app; thanks for the recommendation! I wish they didn't track the MSRP of the user's collection under "view stats"; I knew I had amassed a ridiculous collection but that really gave me pause. Oh well. I wear my watch all day everyday, using the H bands most of the day and switching over to sport bands for working out evenings and bedtime.

I might feel differently about it next year, but having spent 99.5% of the past six months at home, I'm really pleased to have my little AWH collection. I know I'll use them again in the future but by handbags have been collecting dust for a while (no Hermes; mostly Balenciaga, Proenza Schouler and The Row). It's nice to have a pretty jewelry to look at during the day while I waste away in my home office.

Yikes! If I want to add another band, I'll have to open up a new drawer in my jewelry armoire.

Good to know about the navy. I have a dark blue one but I’ve never liked it much. This looks like a better color!

I like it! It’s a nice small difference this year in how the band rests and looks. My anemone band came today, and I love the color and the style. The lug appears a bit more noticeable on the 44 but I think it looks great. And I have the all black version S5, but I like the silver lug on black, as I don’t mind mixing metals and I don’t even notice the connectors at all while wearing.

So I’m thrilled with my S5, especially since the circulaire came with my W OS7 update. I’m waiting until S7 for the rumored form factor change! Can’t wait though to see others S6 watches!

40mm band with 44mm watch face look very nice. I am more confident to have my sa order one for me. Thanks for sharing.

What is the “form factor change?” I’ve heard nothing about that. I’m dying for this color. Jealous!!

No, there’s a new band type only available in the Fauve color called Attelage. The other bands don’t have the “Attelage” name in the title and they look normal. You can see the new one here in H’s pic and the top lug def looks farther spaced than the bottom...

Yes the space at the top is noticeably wider.

Looks nice! Are you using the same hole on the band? I would think they have adjusted the top half of the band to account for the bigger lug size?
Oddly enough yes using same hole as my other band in this color. But one hole smaller compared to some of my other Hermès bands. Odd. The leather strips seem to be exactly the same size as is the hole placements. It is a little stiff so perhaps when it wears in a little I will tighten up.

Cool app. I just downloaded it!
 
Finally got mine! This is my first Apple Watch as I’ve been waiting all these years for sleep tracking function.

My SA helped me get the 40mm double tour attelage. I also got an extra strap in anemone.

I find that the bands fit very differently...my wrist is almost too thick for the double tour (need to use the second last hole) and I never thought I would have this problem. The single tour is more spacious, and have a few holes left after putting it on.

Inside the box, it did ship with an adapter despite the rumor it was pulled last minute from even the Hermes editions.

The double tours are notoriously short for some reason. Congrats on your new watch! I’m hoping to snag the anemone band as well. Thanks for the photos!
