Looks like Hermès and Apple are teaming up together to create a new luxury watch! It is reported that the deal was made back in September during Fashion Week.
According to Fashionista, Apple knew that not only is the tech company known for forward thinking in terms of technology, but their products are overpriced, but damn near worth every penny! The company considers themselves as a “luxury brand” and knew teaming up with Hermès was the right business move.
October is when the first debut launch took place of the collection, but it was only available in select Apple and Hermès store locations: New York, Los Angeles, Miami, San Francisco and Toronto! Ahhh, don’t you sometimes wish your city was highly favored like the rest of these well-known hot spots?!
Any who, don’t be too sad because Apple and Hermès will officially launch their collaboration online on Friday, January 22! It will be finally available for purchase through the web on apple.com and hermes.com!
The collection will include multiple styles and colors to choose from. The first style is called, the “Double tour,” it’s described as a doubled banded watch, which means it wraps around your wrist twice. It also comes in select colors: fauve (shade of brown), etain (shade of grey), capucine (shade of red) and bleu jean. There is the “Cuff” that only comes in fauve (brown). The “cuff” is shaped in a cuff-like form and is sensible enough to stay in contact with your heart-rate and wrist at the same time. The there is the “Single tour” that is just your practical slim wrist band and is similar in shape to a girth, a strap that sits on a horse. This style comes in select colors like: fauve, noir and capucine.
These are all handmade leathers straps for the top designer collection, ranging from $1,100 to $1,500! Better get those coins up if you’re interested on this high-end deal!
