Wearing Hermès Bracelet with your Rolex

Anyone wear an Hermès bracelet with your Rolex? Please post pics if u do!

Thinking of buying an Hermès piece specifically but not sure if I should get a leather one or metal one.

I wouldnt do it if i were you. If you are gonna wear them both on the same wrist. The hardware on the bracelet will definitely scratch your watch.

I do this - will post a picture when I can. To avoid the scratching that the above poster (rightly) refers to, I wear a bezel protector. They are sold by Emils Watches in Germany (as well as I suspect many others). A bezel protector is essential if you want to wear a metal bracelent such as the Hermes.

No offense to anyone but, nothing says "look at me" more than a metal bracelet worn beside a watch. (Esp.a decent of 'good' watch. It's a look favored by Italian Gangsters and the Nouveau Rich.

People bitch, whine and post endlessly about certain watches being 'scratch magnets' and fuss about the most miniscule scratches and swirls, yet don't think twice about adorning themselves with jewellery which might cause undue wear and tear on their beloved Rolex watches. I don't get it.

The watch is enough on the wrist. If you want a bracelet then put it on the other wrist. I have a very nice ID bracelet from Tiffany & Co. that I wear on occasion on my opposite wrist. A gift with meaning from my wife. Use the engraving services from Tiffany if you ever get an item engraved. They are amazing.

To each his / her own.

I kind of like the look so maybe I'll give it a go too.

I rarely if ever wear bracelets anymore, but when I did I always wore them on the other wrist.

I have seen what bracelet would do to the side of the case before, and no, I don't recommend it. :)

Please don’t, but if you do, wear it on the opposite wrist.

Question is -what happens if it's not Hermes?
Can one still wear it?

If you really want attention, get a pair of handcuffs and snip the chain.

Wear one on each wrist. Paired with an orange jumpsuit you will be the belle of the ball!
