This is my latest purchase from Hermes, A Cape Cod GM Automatic with matte black alligator strap. I also got an interchangeable natural Barenia strap for it, if a more casual look is called for.
Love this watch for casual weekends! I’ve special ordered the double tour straps (because these aren’t available off the shelf in my wrist size) in matte black gator and fauve Barenia![]()
there he goes... down the slippery slope of H...I wanted a belt kit with a Constance buckle for a while (it used to be 42 mm and now it is 38 mm). I like it more than the 32 mm H one that I have in the guilloche finish. Almost got one in Rome in 2019. The store only had the polished Constance H, although I wanted the brushed one more. Now that I got a HAC in blue, I figured it was a good time to get the belt to match it. Togo in Bleu de Prusse and 135 calfskin in black. The same colour combination in the 32 mm size used to be with Box calfskin. Is 135 a newer version of Box?

Not a slope I wanted to go through, but I have this strange obsession with getting my brands to match in my outfits. Quite challenging with the price points at Hermes. At least their shoes look comparable in price to other brands.there he goes... down the slippery slope of H...![]()

How is the Depeche in practical situations? Do you baby it?
I'm a bit afraid to load it up too much, as I normally tend to carry laptop, iPad, and a bunch of other things.
I don’t abuse my bags but I’m not precious with them either. I carry the above as seen in my pic + airpods, keys, a petit H A4 file, an H pencil case and sometimes a folded, spare shirt. I carry my laptop separately as the weight (16” macbook) puts too much strain on the leather
