Wallpaper* magazine names Apple Watch Hermès ‘Life enhancer of the year’ in design awards

The Independent reports that Wallpaper* magazine has listed the Apple Watch Hermès as one the winners of its 2016 design awards. The category? ‘Life enhancer of the year.’ I guess that’s the kind of category you have to expect from a magazine with an asterisk in its name.

    That watch band looks stupid and uncomfortable. I guess I have no taste.

      i didn’t want to be the first to say it, so thank you. i’d like some variations on that watch face but holy crap i hate that band.

        It’s a women’s band. It actually looks quite nice in person and is a signature Hermès band.

        They have a more traditional band available, too.

    I think these watches look pretty awesome. I would love to buy one for my girlfriend, she’d love it.
