Apple has announced that from 19 April anyone will be able to get their hands on new and previously released Hermès straps for the Apple Watch, as they will be sold individually.

Until now the only way to sport an Hermès Apple Watch strap was to buy the whole setup, watch and all.

Plenty of options will be available to buy including a selection of Hermès Single Tour and Double Tour Bands plus an Hermès Cuff.

Adding to the styles introduced initially will be new bands in the same style. All the bands, new and previously released, will be available separately for the first time.
