Right, the Satin buckle is my favorite too. It was not available in the States until a month ago if I remember correctly and I had to as my friend to have it acquired in France back in May. Enjoy it!

Yay, so glad to hear! :heart: You know I love the Domino, and the Satin is fabulous, too! I've never seen it before. Such a subtle and understated version of the H buckle. And new straps came home with you, too? :graucho: Enjoy your new buckles!

When you ladies buy belts, do you get one for your pants and a separate strap for "higher" up?
Click to expand...

Hi Nolia, I purchase my straps so that the largest hole is the one I use for jeans. Then I request two extra holes be punched, so that I can wear them higher up, as well. This gives me five holes to choose from, fitting from waist to hips. Using the smallest hole, they end up a smidge large for my waist, but work well over a sweater. Due to scarcity, and expense, I thought this was the best option. If you can try one on in your boutique, maybe your SA could advise if this would work for you. Best wishes!

hi, i am new. come all the way from brazil :)

how are you all doing? i am glad i have found you guys. i have read a lot and have seen many beautiful pics of hermes belts. you all have wonderful styles ;)

anyhow... i thought i would write my first post... and sorry for it being already a request... lol...

but this request i am sure would benefit the group, specially the noobs that are now starting to linto the lovely world of hermes :)

here is the request... and bellow i will write the reason i ask...

can someone please post pictures of their H buckles (the two sizes available in the market for the constance style) next to a measuring tape... so we can see the measurements to help us avoid not buying stupid fake buckles?

the reason i ask...

in my case i live in goiania (brasil). we dont have a local hermes store here... the closest one is in sao paulo. i have only been there once and do not know people that go there.

i have called the store and they said they would not ship the item to me, and to be honest, i wouldnt want it either... sorry but i dont trust our post office system (nor the GOV by the way).

i then found a friend of a friend that used to travel to NY a lot and had a buckle she wanted to sell. it was in perfect condition. i bought the darn buckle, looked legit with all the things i learned online... she said she would give me the receipt, she just had to find it, but it has been a month and nothing so far.

i know she has gone to NY many times, because she always posts pictures on her facebook, that i know she is not lying... but... with all the fakes out there from china, this thing keeps on bothering me in the back of my head. i have lost sleep over it... sad but true.

i will take pics of the buckle i bought and post here. i bought the 32mm one. well, i believe that is the one i have... i dont even know what to measure to make sure it is the 32mm. do i measure from tip to tip of the H? or from the steam of the H? also so confusing...

anyhow... i think this would help not just me... but also others that are against of counterfeits items out there. i have nothing against people that use them... i just dont like to buy something that they say is the real deal, charge me for it and then it is not. i feel raped.

thanks guys and girls. and happy holidays to all of you out there!

Gorgy strap combos SMama!!!! I was craving the orange/capucine combo sooooo badly for a few months but recently caved when my SA offered orange/gold in the Constance size. I hope I never come across the orange/capucine bc it's so delish... I can't resist :p

Oh, gorgy pairings as well! Congrats!!!

Hi everyone,

I have been wanting an Hermes h belt for sometime, and probably will do for some time as I don't intend to start collecting hermes until late 2014/early 2015 as I have some LV items i still wish to get.
Anyways, I have a question regarding the classic gold or silver H buckles for both the 32mm and 42mm belt kits... Would you guys recommend buying the cheaper shiny finish versions of the buckles or the brushed finish version of the buckles?
I ask this because originally I wanted to buy both a 32 mm and 42 mm belt with a brushed silver buckle. I was under the impression that the brushed finish versions of the buckles were less prone to scratching etc. however upon my reading through this thread, I have seen the same amount, if not more scratches on the brushes finish versions of the belt buckles.

Responses from those with experiences with both shiny and brushed h buckles are truely appreciated.

Thank you. :).
