The six brand new Apple Watch bands are as follows:

  • Titanium Milanese loop in Natural Titanium and Black Titanium ($199, Apple Watch Ultra only): “The Titanium Milanese Loop is made from aerospace-grade titanium mesh with a secure parachute-style buckle. Inspired by stainless steel meshes once used by divers and designed for marine activities, it’s made from lightweight titanium, making it perfect for any occasion.”
  • Hermès Twill Jump Attelage Single Tour in Noir/Gold and Rouge Grenat/Vermillon ($349, 42mm only): “A time-honored design reinterpreted with new textiles. The most delicate strap available for Series 10, the Twill Jump Attelage Single Tour is an ethereal touch of form. With a nod to the precise border painting used throughout Hermès, colorful contrasting edges enliven this elegantly thin strap.”
  • Hermès Torsade Single Tour in Navy Blue and Rouge Grenat ($349, 46mm only): “Reminiscent of nautical chains, Torsade comes to life as a continuous knit band in rich, saturated hues. Lightweight and comfortable, Torsade is available as a Single Tour or Double Tour, which wraps twice around the wrist.”
  • Hermès Torsade Double Tour in Vert Moyen and Rouge Grenat ($449, 42mm only): “The sportiest Hermès bracelet yet. Kilim is made of soft, waterproof molded rubber with an “H” motif and features a convenient folding clasp that opens with a click.”
  • Hermès En Mer in Bleu Nuit ($449, Apple Watch Ultra only): “The first Hermès Ultra comes with the sporty En Mer strap in water-repellent structural knit in Bleu Nuit, which reflects the pattern of ocean waves and features a subtle ‘H’ motif and a matching custom titanium buckle.”
  • Hermès Grand H in Satiné ($999): “Grand H interprets a classic watchmaking style for the modern day, combining technical precision with the fluidity of metal for a sophisticated look. Adjustable links in satin-finished stainless steel are framed by the iconic “H” motif and secured with a butterfly clasp.”

The new Titanium Milanese Loop is the first metal strap designed for Apple Watch Ultra. Inspired by the lightweight and corrosion-resistant mesh once used by divers, it’s woven from the same aerospace-grade titanium used to make the Apple Watch Ultra case. Apple says, “A special process of weaving, smoothing, laser welding, grinding and finely polishing the titanium wire results in precise, interlocking diamond shapes that create a luxurious case, complete with a parachute-style double-button buckle that’s secure enough for all water sports.”

The Hermès Grand H is Hermès’ first Apple Watch strap made entirely of stainless steel, while the Hermès En Mer is exclusive to the Apple Watch Hermès Ultra 2, which also features a matching Hermès Maritime watch face with graphic Cape Cod numerals, a seconds indicator on the bezel, and a regatta countdown timer for sailing triggered by the action button.
