yep, colour code stands for Dark Violet, but is it 2012? i thought 2012 shall have a year letter

This colour was S/S, the K tag was the first and that's F/W.

yes, you are right!
then, G21 was downsized in the AW collection, not just "in 2012"

If “lovebbags” is correct ( and they seem to be pretty accurate in my experience) S/S was the seasonal change to G12. Gold was also replaced by rose gold that season but, according to them, the G21 gold was brought back as a boutique exclusive. They don’t say what season but we know it’s post 2011 so it makes sense that the S/S dark violet with G21 could have been a boutique exclusive. Especially since the colour isn’t on the standard chart. That’s my best guess anyway.

@SillyPooch your dark violet would be agneau and your pine chevre so that could account for the weight difference.

I'd say the bag is OK but that strap isn't the original, authentic Bal strap.
