The Apple Watch Hermès line
features three different band options, two of which are very different
from anything already available for the Watch. The Single Tour model is the relatively pedestrian option
of the bunch: it's a stainless steel Apple Watch paired with a
hand-stitched brown leather band, although the detail makes it stand out
from Apple's own leather options.
UK prices aren't available at
present, but it sells for US$1,100 (about £725) for the 38mm model and
US$1,150 (about £760) for the 42mm option, and it comes in Fauve and
Noir colours, with Capucine also available for the 38mm model.
The Double Tour,
meanwhile, puts a much more distinctive Hermès flavour on Apple's
device. It features an extra-long version of the Single Tour strap
that's designed to wrap twice around your wrist, and with only a 38mm
option available at US$1,250 (about £825), it seems primarily targeted
towards women. It's available in four colours, too: Fauve, Étain,
Capucine, and Bleu Jean.
Finally, the Cuff option effectively appears to wrap a
42mm version of the Single Tour in a larger leather cuff that wraps
below the Watch body and around your wrist. That's sold for US$1,500
(about £990), and only in the Fauve colour pictured up top. No matter
the model you pick, you'll get an exclusive Hermès watch face that
matches the high-end leather: the squared circular clock look seems like
it could command a nice sum itself, if Apple ever gets around to
selling premium Watch faces.
