Hello there,

new to this thread and tbh I just wondered if it’s possible to just purchase the buckle without the leather?

Thanks and merry Christmas everyone

Strap without the buckle but never the buckle without the strap.

Hi PJW5813,
Thanks for responding.
I found the square end in Black Swift / Chocolate Epsom but I am still undecided about Swift leather!
When you mention the bar of the buckle may cause an indentation, are you referring to the Idem buckle specifically or to any Hermes buckle? I assume that this indentation would be hidden by the buckle though so wont be as aggravating to me!

Best bet

Hi PaperTiger, or anyone else who may have any information!

Would you have any idea/9s) how I can get hold of a reference number for any squared end 32 mm strap in Sombrero / Togo, Sombrero / Epsom, or Swift / Togo? The colors and size do not matter. Hermes told me they can use the first few numbers of the reference number to try finding me this style strap in the colors and size that I would want. (They just can't find me the reference numbers for this strap).

Thanks so much!

Hi everyone! I want to get a H belt (Constance buckle) but I don't know whether to get a gold or palladium buckle. I want the black/etain combo. I wear both gold and silver hardware, both in jewelry and bags. Which do you prefer?

Also, do you find this belt worth the money? I don't mean in terms of price (it's overpriced I know), but more in terms of use. Do you find yourself wearing it a lot? Is it easy to put on and take off? Have you ever had an issue with the buckle falling off when you are using the restroom or taking it off?

I live in NYC and am wondering if the stock is available in the store or if it's hard to get the combo I mentioned.

Thanks and sorry for all the questions. Total nubie here!

I have the mini constance noir/gold with gold buckle and i use it a lot. I wear gold jewelry predominately, but i have no problem mixing metals if necessary. I purchased mine on the website (they didn't have the size and color i wanted at the store at the time) and then exchanged for a different size at the Americana store on long island but i would assume the NYC stores would have more stock. I have no issues taking it on and off and the buckle stays secure even with use. I find that its worth the money since you basically get two belts in one. Good luck!!

Hello all,
I just received a 32 mm belt kit in Swift and Epsom which is really nice. I ordered the Idem buckle which I love because it’s understated, but it was virtually impossible to open the belt after I inserted into the belt hole. Has anyone experienced this?
 
#4,615
Hello, are you saying the belt hole is too small for the buckle pin? I found more recent straps seem to be made using a smaller punch, and buckle pins can be a tight fit. I imagine the hole will stretch a bit with wear, but maybe ask at your local store. Best wishes!

My mini constance was the same. With wear it should loosen up just enough!

Hi dannyboy, for some reason, my reply above did not quote you. Not sure why! As Marisa1 noted, I imagine it will get easier with use.

I'm hoping someone can help me with some vintage CDC sizing. I searched but couldn't find anything specific.

I'm looking at 2 vintage belts, one from 1991 (circle stamp U) and the other from 1994 (blind stamp X).

The 1991 is a size 75 and it says the maximum length is 34"
The 1994 is a size 80 and the listing says the maximum length is 31.5

Does this make sense to anyone that the size 80 would be smaller than the 75?

Definitely don't make sense
Maybe typo error
