I like both, and I had a hard time deciding which one I really wanted, but honestly...I would get so picky about the patina on the mono! I know it would make me start to not like my bag.
Damier all the way for me!
Even though mono is "the classic", who says damier can't become a classic too!?
Mono, It's a classic!
And yes, even with all those fakes everywhere. I would at least know it's real! And I'm just not such a fan of Damier, sorry... I like Azur a lot though, but I'd rather have a Mono Speedy!
They are both attractive, but I prefer a damier speedy because it's not as popular as the mono and it's a very understated LV bag. No vachetta to worry about and no dirty looks because people don't know it's an LV bag except for LV lovers!
