Which h buckle is better based on looks and wear over the years? Brushed or plated?

there are other versions of the H buckle, besides the brushed and shiny ones, like the guilloche or ribbed version which is probably more scratch-proof..

Just wondering how do you guys store your belts? Do you keep it in the box and buckle separate pouch. I just feel that putting the buckle off and on takes a toll on the buckle hole especially on the box leather. Anybody experience this. Any advice? TIA :)

check with you guys i wanna buy a H buckle hermes belt, my jeans size is 31 - 32 inches
what's the cm of belt i need to get?
You probably need a size 90 or 95. As to cm size deals with the width of the belt. I always purchase my belts to fit my low rise pants and have my SA add two holes so that I can also wear the belt at my natural waist.
Hope this helps!

I actually store my belts wrapped in a circle and my buckles in their pouches. There is a bit of wear and tear on the buckle hole but that is to be expected with any belt that has interchangeable buckles. I have multiple buckles so I am constantly changing from gold to silver on different belts to get different looks from that belt's color. Over the years I have never had a problem with an over worked buckle hole so I think you will be fine...enjoy your belt!

yep - belt in the box and buckle in the pouch. don't think there is any extra strain on the buckle hole. the belt will just show wear with normal use. the leather is quite hardy.

That is good to know. Thank you so much! :)
 
I can officially join.. I got my first Hermes piece today. First thing first my belt kit., I'm so stoked right now. I guess I will be stalking this thread more. Between here and Louis Vuitton I'm going to be broke for a while but fashionably broke I guess :)
