I had the DLC Coated version of this but after a few months I sold it because I just couldn't "un-see" the date window. It became a deal breaker for me unfortunately. If they bring out a no date (unlikely) then I will reconsider.
This is a home run for me, and really the only thing to come out of W&W that has caught my eye (and that I can also afford). Will definitely be picking up the orange at some point.
I really like the H08 series of watches and want to buy one, but what stops me is the design of the strap. My wrist is 6.5" and to get a good fit I have to use the first hole (to create the smallest diameter). The problem this introduces is that the excess rubber strap then flaps about unsightly, ruining the otherwise elegant looks. I expected the strap to be the one part Hermes would get 100% correct, but oddly, it's the part that stops me buying one. I hope they can create a newer strap to cater for people other sizes of wrists.
I bought a H08 stainless steel version last summer, and I’m looking into this new H08 chronograph version, it looks so beautiful and unforgettable! Not sure if the price is released or not, happy to know the details! I was told it will be in the market later this year, sometime in fall. I can’t wait to see the physical/real one in Suzhou, China!
