Beautiful! I was eyeing this bag and the medium black one on mcqueen official website. Question: how does the Padlock hardware look to you? Is it shiny metal or a little rusty?

Reason I asked: Just finally received the black medium padlock yesterday.
The bag is perfect quality EXCEPT for the skull padlock... for some reason it looks rusty all around and somewhat beaten up, not very polished.

I have another medium padlock in different color and silver hardware (purchased from farfetch) but the hardware quality is much better. ... not sure if the gold one comes more 'rustic' than the silver one.
I'm planning to email Mcqueen customer service about this and see from there. .
That's the beauty of it. Mine looks like that. And I loveeeeeeeee it.
 
I just bought the same croc padlock bag and find the quality excellent except as it was shipped directly from McQueen, the handle was pressed against the package and slightly mis-shaped. I am hanging the handles on a door knob to reshape. This is the only quality issue I noticed. Otherwise I pre-treated with Lovin My Bags (for shiny leather) and it looks amazing!

It's a fabulous looking bag
 
Yes I got mine 50% off from Mcqueen site. At first I was a little confused with the 'rustic' and slightly beaten-up skull padlock and was about to contact their customer service. But many people responded that that's the way the hardware is, so I'm glad to hear that :)
Funny my other small pink padlock has shiny metal skull padlock... I guess they make the metal different on each color?
