watchOS 5.2 Beta Three Released to Developers – Includes New Watch Faces for Hermès Models

Apple on Tuesday released the third beta of watchOS 5.2 for the Apple Watch to developers for testing. The good news is the update includes new watch faces, the bad news is they’re only for use with the expensive Hermès Apple Watch models.

When installing the update, your Apple Watch needs to have at least 50% battery remaining, connected to a charger, and be in range of your matched iPhone.

While most of the changes in watchOS 5.2 beta three consisted of the ever popular bug fixes and performance enhancements, one noticeable change came along for the ride. But they’re only for use with Hermès Apple Watch models.

Users of the expensive Hermès lineup of the Apple Watch will notice new watch faces. The new faces, first discovered by French site WatchGeneration, include new blue and pink faces, featuring a gradient-style design, as seen above.The face features customizable numbers and a single complication.

As usual, MacTrast and Apple both warn users to not install the watchOS 5.2 beta on your daily driver Apple Watch, instead only install it on a device set aside for testing purposes.
