Hello all! im hoping for a little advice, i just bought my first belt (and first hermes leather piece, have only had scarves and bracelets until now!) in black/gold with the silver cdc buckle. Im second guessing my buckle choice! I liked the H buckle on me but decided against it as i intend to wear this belt both casually and to work and i feel the branding might not be appropriate for work. So i decided between the cdc and the idem buckle in gold. My main issue is wearing the buckle with gold and silver jewellery. I have one gold clic clac and a pair of gold earrings i wear frequently. Otherwise i have a silver clic clac, watch and several pairs of earrings.



What does everyone think about the versatility of these buckles? should i have gone with idem? (i havent taken it out of the box so could still exchange i hope!!)



Sorry to be a pest, im not the greatest decision maker :p

Congrats, gold/ black togo/ box is a classic. Have you considered buying a second belt? That would obviously solve the dilemma...Then you would have more combinations. The cdc is not the most conservative buckle but looks good with a lot of outfits. IMO it's more flashy in ghw. Personally I don't like mixing silver and gold pieces, so IMO I think you need another belt with ghw especially since you posted that you wear your gold clic clac and earrings frequently. Does your watch have a leather or metal strap?

Hello, is blue electric a seasonal color for belt? My local store has black/etoupe and black/be. I like both but I can only get 1 at the moment. Thanks

I don't know if it is seasonal but I would choose black/be. Be is beautiful and I have one myself with be and a darker blue on the other side.

Thanks Nahreen. May i ask if the size is stamped on the belt somewhere? My older belt shows 85 next to the R stamp. Is that the size? When i measured the belt against a measurement tape the length is 97 cm. :what:

Sorry for late reply. My DH was fiddling with my phone the other day and since then I get no push notifications. Mine says 90 so I think that is the size. Maby it is the size when it is closed, some of the length is needed just for closure with the buckle.

Thanks for your reply Serva1 :smile1: you're right, a second belt would be the best solution!! i asked if i could buy a second buckle down the track and the SA said no, only in conjunction with another strap. To be honest i cant see myself buying a second belt for sometime, so id like to make sure this one 'works' for the majority of outfits. The gold earrings alone with the belt i think look ok, but im not sure on the clic clac...i wish i could just buy a second buckle without the strap, that would be easier for me to justify!

Thanks Vig.. you are always very helpful. Now I am not sure how 85 comes from cause the length is 97cm. How long is it for the 90?

HerLuv, don't know about the total length of the 90cm but from what my SA said when she measured me, H belts are sized by the waist not the length of the belt. Please correct me if I am wrong, ladies and gents.

The length of the belt for my 90 is 105, my 85's length is 99. For the 85 and 90, the number on the belt is from the hole for the buckle on one end to the middle (2nd) hole on the other end, which would be your waist. HTH

Hi all :) sorry to be a pest, I'm still having a lot of trouble deciding on a buckle for my belt kit. Im considering the h buckle again, but I definitely want to wear the belt with work outfits and I worry the H is too ostentatious? Does anyone wear a h buckle to work?

And do people find they can mix and match gold and silver jewellery with the buckle? I wear a silver watch and some other silver jewellery, but I have one gold clic and one pair of gold earrings I wear a lot too.
