The new Series 10 Apple Watch models available today come in a special titanium color that Apple barely mentioned in its keynote last week. The problem: It’s only available in the most expensive Standard series of computer watches – the one the group sells in collaboration with French luxury goods brand Hermès.

Do you want steel? Take Hermès!
The Apple Watch Series 10 is available in the standard aluminum material in the colors silver, rose gold and diamond black (“jet black”), although only the diamond black is also polished. The aluminum version is available either with or without a mobile phone connection and the price starts at 449 euros. The steel version of the smartwatch has now been removed from the range. Instead, three new titanium colors start at 799 euros: “natural”, “gold” and “slate”. All variants are polished, the “natural” titanium being more gray than silver.
This is exactly the role she plays now Apple Watch Series 10 Hermès. Their titanium – there’s no steel here either – is officially called “silver” and is reminiscent of steel. But Apple charges a high price for it: for the small version with bracelet you have to pay at least 1,399 euros. You can even spend up to 2099 euros if you want – but there is also a larger version with a Grand H bracelet with a double folding clasp. Apple advertises, “It interprets the classic watchmaking style in a modern way and combines technical precision with flowing shapes made of metal links for a stylish look.” It is marked with the Hermès H and has four adjustable links.
Apple Watch Ultra 2 also as Hermès edition
Moreover, now you can also Apple Watch Ultra 2 in Hermès edition Related. It costs 1,579 euros with a special bracelet, while for the normal version you will only have to pay 899 euros. It has no special color, but it does have a Hermès logo on the back and “exclusive dials” that are activated in the software.
The bracelet is called “En Mer” in the color “Blue Nuit”. It is sold individually at a price of 479 euros and is made from “water-protected textured knitted fabric”. It is “reminiscent of a pattern of waves with a subtle “H” motif.” The clasp is made of titanium, the weaving material is made of plastic, i.e. polyamide yarn.
