Took the plunge today finally! Navy lambskin from 21C. I noticed that the both ends of the intertwined leather sewing on the top half of the logo does not end/touch the stitch of the quilt. In the second photo, the right side ends before touching the quilt stitch while the left side ends slightly after the quilt stitching. I’m thinking if I should try to exchange it for another perfectly placed logo if there is another new bag with that. Is this also an issue with the bags you all own and would this bother you? I read somewhere earlier in this thread that it has happened before, just wondering if this would bother you all. Everything else about the bag is perfect.

Just got my first 19 in the logo wave from 21p! This was a beautiful gift from my fiancé for my birthday. He knew I was obsessing over the caramel 19 bag so he visited my associate and asked for it but obviously she said they had not received any caramel but they had this very special one from the collection and he jumped on it. Honestly it took me a second to really fall in love because I had never paid this print much attention (since everyone talks non stop about the caramel) but I do truly feel this is special and will be a really great addition to my bag collection. I’ve heard some of people see faces or Star Wars characters when looking at the print but I guess my imagination sucks because I just see waves. Haha!
Absolutely love it - coordinates with the chanel RTW - and what a thoughtful gift
Treasure him
And this bag!!

It looks beautiful ! I would keep it, I just bought a Chanel 19 21C beige and noticed slight bump in the reinforcement under the flap and popped into 3 boutiques to check stock for an exchange and all of the 19’s I saw had other variations with stitching alignment and crinkled leather (not my preference for lambskin). If you’re happy with everything else with your bag I recommend keeping it as other bags could be worse and it doesn’t look like an issue to me and the puffiness and quilting of your bag looks perfect!

Thanks for sharing that info! I also went to look at the only last new piece they have in another boutique yesterday. The stitching of the logo leather was perfect but there were other more obvious issues with that piece - crinkled leather and flatter quilt. I ended keeping the one I had originally bought. I have come to realised that every piece of Chanel 19 is unique in their own way and I love my piece :)
