Where/when did you buy it and how much did you pay for it? I was in Paris last month but they were completely sold out on "exotic" colors even though they had a limit of 1 belt per passport. Also, does anyone know how the international prices compare to the Hong Kong prices for the belt? Are the orange ones more expensive? In Hong Kong it seems very difficult to buy at retail price because scalpers constantly buy all the stock and resell them at a mark up; is there the same problem abroad?

In the U.S. it's the same price as the regular H belt kits, $710!

Does anyone have a list of currently produced color combinations of the 32mm strap? Most of mine reverse to black or brown which seem to be the easiest to find, but it sort of defeats the purpose of having a reversible 2-in-1 belt if everything reverses to the same color lol!! I'd really like the 32mm strap in additional colors, but it would help to know what color combinations are even available.

Thats good to hear, do you have any pics Meg?

Yes I posted them on the previous page for you Susie. Page 62.

You look great in all these shots, i particularly like the 3rd look.

Thanks Millicat.

Now I want the CDC buckle belt, I think it's super Chic, a little more understated. I hope my SA gets one on or H.com!!

The smaller sizes seem to be a lot harder to come by. When I went to the Herems store at SCP they could easily get the 90 but for anything smaller there wasn't anything available. I ended up getting my from Lady Authentic on ebay.

Sorry Meg, I didnt go back to the last page. Thank you for your great photos.

Your CDC belts look amazing on you! I am sure now that I will be able to work mine into my wardrobe.

I have 3 CDC belts and wear them at the waist usually with a dress.

You look great!! This is how I wear mine as well-- it completely changes the look of the dress. I even wear them with my wrap dresses to update the look.

Excuse my ignorance here, but is/are that ?

i think in this sense she is using it to mean the same as "resellers"... for example ticket scalpers when you go to a concert, they've bought a ton of the available tickets and stand outside the venue and sell them for a mark-up/profit

i don't know all the colors but from what i have seen, there are:
- bleu electrique/graphite
- crocus/etain
- vermillion (red)/white
- mangue/gold
- jaune d'or/forgot the other side... orange maybe??
- blue jean/white

that's all i can think of for now....

Thank you AB, I would love to see a pic of the CDC with a wrap dress. I have several but not sure how a belt other than the self tie belt would work.

Sorry, I Know this is off topic a little bit but it sounds incredible "One Belt per passport".... I have Never had this before with whatever I bought elsewhere....
Don't you have a chance of buying on the Hermes Website? If you are quick there are great colours once a while. You only have to check every day as the cool courways are Sold out quickly, especially the buckles!

People that buy up all the stock and sell it at a premium in unofficial stores. People do that a lot in hong kong, especially with concert tickets, newly released iPhones, and popular items like the Hermes belts/Birkins.

They were very strict about this in the main shop in Paris. I saw a Chinese couple that wanted to buy 2 belts and they needed to separately buy one each on their passport.

I actually like this policy though it cuts down on the people buying tons and tons of belts only to resell them at 1.5x or even 2x the real retail price.
