I’d get the double tour if I were you. I got the single and within a week I had to use the innermost hole, and I am NOT tiny (hell I was 34 weeks pregnant even at the time). The “it’s too tight” comments had scared me off of the double tour even though it looked gorgeous at the store.

The good thing is, Hermes bands are relatively cheap, I think like $360 or something for the single tour? If the double really annoys you, you can add a single.

Yeah that’s also my concern. I think my wrist is around 5.5-6.5 inches depend on where the watch would sit and I hate things being tight. I’d pretty much ruled out the DT for that reason. It is the one I love the most!

wish I could see it in person and try it on!

I just looked at mine - where I wear it, before the bone by the wrist(don’t know its name), I measure~ 5 3/4. I got single tour and started wearing on third from tightest, moved to second within a couple weeks of daily wear, then settled at innermost-or-second at the end of a month, still wear it that way. I thought about asking a hole punched in, but the leather seems to be holding right now.

hope thishelps a bit, wish you could’ve tried, too!

My wrist is 6in and I posted the double tour attelage in post 2448 of this thread. I also have a black swift single tour (which I wear on the middle of the seven holes), and have not experienced any stretching of either band. I find that having leather bands makes me want to wear the watch so much more (I also have a Coach band from the first gen watch, and a Lilly Pulitzer leather band) than with just a silicone or mesh band-and Apple branded bands aren’t any great bargain, even if they are cheaper than an Hermes band. So…my advice is to buy the band that is calling your name and you will wear the watch so much more!

Hi everyone....I'm seeking some assistance with sizing and strap options. I'm traveling (HI) and stopped into Hermes to get a new watch (I have a very old one...V 2). I tried on the 7 in a 45 mm because I really like bigger faces, and hate to have to put on my glasses to see what the heck the watch is telling me :hrmm:. However, I have small wrists (think Cartier JUC size 16 since that's the best I can do with no measuring tape at the moment). Every iteration of straps was too big around my wrist with the smallest hole used. No way they'd add a hole (I'd have to do that after, which is no big deal to leather). How is everyone who has small wrists but wearing the 45 size dealing with this? And what about the rubber strap? I use the rubber for working out on my old one.....I think that same strap will work, even if not optimal, on the 45, correct? It's been so long that I've bought one of these....is it possible to get the watch with the leather strap as standard or just the rubber one? Can the DT strap fit a small wrist in the 45? Sorry so many questions, I'm planning to go back today and figure out my configuration. And thanks in advance :flowers: I've been searching through this thread and haven't found the answer yet.

Hi I had this same issue. I only wanted the 45mm but the bands where all to big. I still bought it, it came with a single tour band and the orange sports band-I went and had additional holes placed in then so I could wear them and they are working just fine. I love the big face of the Apple Watch to.

Hey guys, DT attelage is finally back in stock but not in store for at least a week. I really want to try on but I’m worried I’ll miss out.
My wrist is 6.5 inches / 165mm wrist (measured below wrist bone). On the standard Apple Watch silicone band I wear it on the 2nd innermost hole which is a comfortable fit.
I saw on the apple site it fits up to a 155mm wrist so is it definitely too small for me? Anyone got this size wrist with a 41mm DT attelage?

The double tour bands run small. I use the smallest hole on the single tour Hermes straps and I have to use one of the middle holes on the double tour (wrist around 145mm). I am not sure the exact max size but you may want to try it on before buying, there are a lot of complaints on this thread about how small the double tours run.

I’m going to have to try it on first I hope it doesn’t sell out. It’s available to buy but not in store anywhere yet.

Do you think it’ll fit though?? I just have to check if I can return if it doesn’t fit. Any ideas what size wrist the last hole would fit?
I love it so much!! So stunning!!

I just took some more measurements. I have a 6in wrist and wear the double tour attelage on the second to last hole. Measured from the clasp to the hole, it's 13 inches while attached to the watch, so that means I like it with an inch of wiggle room to accommodate the wrap. The distance between holes is 3/16 of an inch, so if you wore it on the last hole it would give you another 3/16ths of an inch.

So, it might be tight but will depend on how you like to wear your strap. I don't like it to spin or strangle my wrist.

As an aside, I saw the new white/cream color in person and it's beautiful.
