Here is a picture of my 35 Black Box Birkin when I had it 2 years ago...

and today still beautiful IMO (and I'm using it almost everyday) ...

That's why I had to have a small Medor in box too...

DH saw this picture and said "That's a sweet line up."

thank you Ladies for all your kind words.

I've been caught in the rain with my box Birkin ( almost new, only 3 days old)...When I arrived to my car I just put the bag on the passenger seat. But when I arrived home, the leather had some greyish blisters. I used Valmour cream...but the blisters were still there (less grey and more black though). It was very late at night so went to bed ( and not slept well). The next morning the blisters were gone.
Now when I'm caught in the rain, I wipe the bag immediately and the box remains perfect
