Hi authenticators,

I just purchased this bag from a local reseller in my country and would like to get it authenticated. At first I wasn’t worried about the authenticity but after looking at the serial number, I’m not sure whether the code letter X has been used for the past collection. Here are the pictures sent by the seller (the bag is still in shipment).

Item name: Balenciaga Metallic Edge City (Small)
Please let me know whether these pictures are sufficient.
I would love to see the zipper head underneath, but from what I can see now I tend to say - authentic past season SS 2019
 
Hello there can you please authenticate this. It’s classic city metallic silver color 1460
Serial number:
115748. 1460.J.527276

My only concern funny enough is the tassels. They are brown on the underside. Shouldn’t it be all silver? All the ones I see online are all silver.

Hello experts!! My addiction continues :loveeyes: please help me with the Balenciaga City :wave: I love the color but I'm worried because it has no Lampo mark on the zipper. The seller said that in one article, last 2010 they released rose gold hw without the Lampo logo.

My only concern funny enough is the tassels. They are brown on the underside. Shouldn’t it be all silver? All the ones I see online are all silver.
Authentic in my opinion. The tassels are split, that's why you have twice as many as usual. You're looking at the raw side of the leather.

Authentic in my opinion. Yes, the 2010 rose gold zipper heads were blank.

i don't know if you are aware, so here's my 2 cents - this is not a classic City, this is Hamilton chevre, very durable goatskin, great find!
