Q: What does Hermès size 75 mean?
A: Hermès belts are sized in centimetres. A size 75 generally corresponds to a 75 cm measurement taken where you plan to wear the belt, or the distance from the base of the buckle tongue to the hole you use most on a belt that already fits you well. If you wear belts higher on the waist or lower on the hips, fit can vary, so comparing it with one of your own belts is the best guide.

Q: When was this belt made?
A: The blind stamp is Circle X, which corresponds to 2016. That gives this piece a clear production year and places it firmly in the vintage category.

Q: What are the main design details of this belt?

Q: What condition is this belt in?
A: It is listed in Very Good condition, with light traces of use to the leather and shiny hardware with light scratches. As a vintage item, gentle signs of wear are normal and form part of its character.

A: Keep the belt away from prolonged sunlight, heat, oils, perfume, and excess moisture. If it gets wet, pat it dry with a soft, lint-free cloth and store it in a dry, temperate place when not in use. Avoid using household leather creams or metal polishes, as these can damage vintage finishes.

Q: Can a vintage Hermès belt be repaired or serviced?
A: Hermès does offer after-sales maintenance and repair assessment for eligible items. Any restoration, hardware work, or servicing is usually handled case by case depending on the item’s condition and the brand’s evaluation.

Q: Is a 3 cm belt a versatile width?
