Apple Watch Series 9 (Hermes, Global, 41 mm) Specs

Identifiers: Watch Series 9 41 mm - Pending* - Watch7,3 - Pending* - Pending*

Apple Watch Series 9, Hermes, 41 mm Please note that this Apple Watch Series 9 Hermes (GPS+Cellular, Global, 41 mm) model is compatible with LTE bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 18, 19, 20, 25, 26, 28, 39, 40, 41, and 66 as well as UMTS 2100 MHz, 1900 MHz, 1700/2100 MHz, 850 MHz, and 900 MHz. It is not compatible with LTE bands 12 (700 MHz), 13 (700c MHz), 14 (700 PS), and 17 (700b MHz). It is sold globally (just about everywhere in the world except for the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico, and China).

The Apple Watch Hermes (Series 9) models are sold as a "partnership" between Apple and French luxury brand Hermes. Like earlier Apple Watch Hermes devices, this model effectively is a 41 mm stainless steel Apple Watch Series 9 -- complete with the "Always On" 352x430 LTPO OLED screen covered with a protective "Sapphire crystal" layer -- but with custom packaging and model-specific watch faces and software tweaks.

All Apple Watch Series 9 models also are quite similar to the Apple Watch Series 8 models that they replaced, but they have a new processor, a brighter display, support for a "magical new double tap gesture," and improved Siri capabilities.

All cellular-equipped Apple Watch Series 9 models, including this one, are capable of being connected to the Internet without a "tethered" iPhone, but it still is intended to be used with an iPhone XS or later running iOS 17 or later for some functions.

All Apple Watch Series 9 devices are controlled with a Digital Crown with haptic feedback and a touch capable display and have a ceramic and sapphire crystal back that connects to the charger, as well.

Battery life is an Apple estimated "up to 18 hours" overall in modest use; the "Low Power Mode" option can extend battery life to up to 36 hours by disabling the Always-On Display and other functions.

For this specific 41 mm Apple Watch Hermes (Series 9), the housing is available in either silver Stainless Steel or "Space Black" Stainless Steel and a variety of band options, which for the first time, only are available made of cloth or rubber materials when purchased from Apple (leather bands remain available from Hermes). The pictured options include a Silver Stainless Steel case with a "Bridon Double Tour" Band (left) and an "Kilim Single Tour" Band (right), but other watch bands are available, as well. The models with black housings also include a black Hermes Sport Band whereas the models with silver housings also include an orange Hermes Sport Band.
