When Apple announced its collaboration with luxury brand Hermès late last year, we were thrilled.
The Apple Watch Hermès, with it’s stainless steel body and finely crafted leather bands, combined the best of both tech and fashion.
But with a price point starting at $1,688, it was by no means considered affordable.

If you already own an Apple Watch and have been secretly lusting over the Hermès version, here’s a spot of good news.
The new season of Hermès bands are now sold separately and are compatible with ‘regular’ Apple Watch cases.
From L-R: Apple Watch Hermès Single Tour Band ($520) in Fauve Barenia (brown), Feu (orange), Blanc (white), Bleu Paon (green), Bleu Saphir (dark blue)
Available in a range of eye-watering shades such as Bleu Paon, a vibrant teal, or Feu, the iconic orange of the luxury house, be prepared to shell out $520 for the Hermès Single Tour Band, $760 for the Hermès Double Tour Band and $1,060 if you fancy the Hermès Cuff.
Hey, we didn’t promise that it’ll come cheap but it’s at least a third the price of the full Apple Watch Hermès (case + band) system!
