    Something to note that was left out: The graphite version uses PVD stainless steel while the Hermes space black uses DLC stainless steel. To simplify, basically the Hermes space black is more scratch resistant and durable as it uses a diamond coating. So yes, even though the Hermes version is more expensive, the quality will make it last a long time!

    @@DougFNJ Managed to get it yesterday morning and it looks stunning. This is only my second Apple watch, with the first being a Gen 4 aluminum version, so this feels like a huge upgrade. The Milanese loop can get a little loose when exercising and it's a slightly heavier watch compared my my old one. As such, I've decided to use the series 4 for exercise to save having to swap the bands over, along with the lighter weight and I'll use the series 6 for every day use. It was a nice surprise to find out the Iphone can manage multiple Apple watches and automatically switches, based on which one you're wearing. This is great, as it feels like I'm getting a bit more life out of the old one, instead of it just sitting in a draw.

    Thank you so much for this! This is exactly what I was looking for. I have a Series 4 Space Grey and I just bought a Series 6 Graphite, but I was a bit upset Apple discontinued the Space Black. I was worried the Graphite wouldn't be dark enough but it looks like it's darker than I thought. Also massive thanks for trying the Space Black Link Bracelet. Really upset that it doesn't match the new Graphite Watch really. I don't know what Apple's though process was behind the weirdness with this. I think it's to do with branding/costing. Last year EE (my mobile network) didn't offer a Stainless Steel watch at all and this year they offer only one, the Graphite.

This time I ordered a graphite steel version with graphite Milanese loop, I am very careful when I take it off and on, hopefully it will arrive on Friday. From videos the difference between the space black and this new graphite is subtle, maybe in real life I will notice more. Next year I would like to try the space black titanium even though it looks like a different aluminum finish.

    I have a space black series 4 and had ordered the Hermès strap, and the leather is unparalleled but the only frustrating thing is that I have a similar wrist size to you and on the last hole of the strap it is pretty tight on my wrist... I had to send it back. I wish they would introduce an option for a slightly longer band like they do for most other straps (s/m and m/l). Think I might hold off on upgrading again this year, I like the darkness of the space black, I feel like the graphite was an unnecessary change but maybe they felt it was a marketing thing to further differentiate from series 5. The gold stainless steel looks pretty awesome though, glad they did a more true gold instead of the pink “gold”

    I was listening to a podcast that made an interesting point....still doesn’t justify moving Space Black to Hermes exclusively. Rene Ritchie was saying Space Black was initially made to transition seamlessly from screen to case to offset the fact that the screen turned off. Once they went always on, it wasn’t as necessary, so they moved to Graphite as a darker stainless steel. You are right, they should move the Ceramic to the Hermes to really upscale it, and give us the choice back with Space Black.

    Elliot Huang the Milanese loop bracelet is PVC, the watch case is DLC. I think they moved the strap to PVC because the DLC finish on the strap scratched the finish on the case and ceramic back.

    They are both the same size. Sometimes the color difference creates the illusion. Hermes Apple watches are the same exact Apple Watch just with the Hermes branding, watch faces, packaging, and of course the straps.

I really wanted the orange band, but I’ve had polished stainless before and can’t stand the micro scratches. Coming from a natural platinum AW5 at the moment. It never shows any scratches, but there’s so something about the Hermes I always wanted.

    Criticize away George, I was not happy about it, and from reviews and forums, we are not alone. I initially bought both the Graphite and Space Black first to review here, and second to decide. If I wasn't so attached to my Link band it wouldn't had bothered me as much. In the end, for me, the straps are worth it. I wouldn't be surprised if Apple brings Space Black back to the regular lineup.

    DougFNJ I just find it curious that channels are not mentioning this... I mean, there is not much to talk about the new version besides colour and the blood ox... so failing to discuss what significant shifts have been made that impact consumers (especially those with space black previous models, I see as a negligent failure... or commentators a little hesitant or even afraid to point this out. *sponsored content etc

    @@GeorgeLista I get where you are coming from George. I don't tend to get too critical on my channel. I primarily put this together to walk through watches and features. I try to source hard to find watches so if someone cannot gain access, I give as much information as possible to be a resource. I did mention I thought it was kind of ridiculous to remove the power block, keep the price, and announce that omission as a feature. I do some sponsored videos, these Apple Watch videos are not. I am not sponsored by Apple, I paid for this myself, and unless its completely unrelated or hostile, I never delete comments like yours, and welcome an open forum to talk about it. I do agree with you though, I was not very happy about moving Space Black to Hermes only. Graphite is not bad....but there is nothing like that Space Black finish.
