I'm curious about people's experiences getting their watch bands repaired/spa'd.
I have a double tour watch band (Space black series 5) that I wear often. The leather split a little (natural wear and tear) revealing the material in between the leather pieces.
I was in Hermes Madison getting a bag repaired and asked them to look at it. The repair service person took it to the back and the artisan said it would have to be sent to Paris to fix because of the resin that is used.
They ended up putting some resin over top of the split while I was doing the paperwork for my bag. It looks much better.
When I went back to pick up my bag I asked if they could do the same with one of my other bands but this time they said it couldn't be done. I told them they had done it before but they said it would be too complicated but I could leave it there and they might be able to fix it for $45.
I found the inconsistency interesting. I don't mind paying for it but $45 seems a little excessive given that they touched up the other one in a matter of minutes and didn't charge. Would love to hear how others have dealt with the wear, tear & repairs.

Is anyone here interested in the Apple Watch Pro? It’s rumoured to be 47mm (massive).
Wonder if it’ll have a Hermès version
Definitely return and wait for the September 7th Apple Event for new products. You might have to pre-order immediately online (if you know your preferred size and style of bands) for fast delivery, or wait like the rest of the others for normal delivery depending on your location.
Cannot promise the new Apple Watch 8 will have similar price points to the previous 7s due to inflation (arghhhh...) and serious production delays in China due to extreme heat, electricity shortages and of course COVID situation.
But 09/07 is just around the corner. I'm excited to see what's new! Happy shopping.
I think there might be a 47mm version, but I doubt it will be Hermes. Perhaps it will be for the new "rugged" version of the watch for serious athletes, and ppl who engage in a lot of outdoor activities.
I returned it yesterday and am eagerly waiting for September!Definitely return and wait for the September 7th Apple Event for new products.

I agree with you that I don't think that the rugged version will be the Hermes version.
I saw this on twitter tonight. Mmm. interesting. I can't wait for the announcement on Sept 7th
