Thank you! But how do I know the year? I wonder how to intereprete the leather tag when there is no letter in the serial code to detect the production year.

You can't always tell by tags. You need to know what year certain hardwares were produced, certain leathers, certain colours and deduce it from there. If the bag has a colour code (and early ones didn't) you can search the code, find the colour, then match it to the year.

Hello muchstuff,

thank you - now I understand :)
In 2 separate threads I posted the tags of my bags related to the question of you as an expert know which production year and which kind of leather my bags are made of.

Especially the black day is much softer than my other bags (2 city with a metal plate, 1 pompon with leather tag, 1 rtt with leather tag).

The other thread is an authentification-matter.

I would be very thankful if you could help. It´s not urgent, I´m just interested.

But the blue bag (281770) is the one that is not mine and I´m thinking of buying it, but I am not sure if it is authentic.

thank you and good night (here in Germany it is nearly midnight) :)

If you post on the "identify this" thread showing a pic of the entire bag, the front and back of the tag, we can try to help. Please do a separate post for each bag.

Classic refers to a type of hardware so you can't have classic and giant. This is a G12 and it's agneau. For further asks please refer to the post at top on yellow for a link to the pics needed and the way they should be photographed. The angles here you have aren't helpful. They must be clear as well.

Thank you so much for your kind and quick help. Aside from the angles- do you think this bag ist authentic? Leathertags, Lampo-zipper, handles (I can´t recognize the knots at the handles) ... the seller finds it difficult to be cooperative or to take further pictures. communication to her is like toothache ;)
