I thought the Cabat made its debut in 2003. This tag predates that. This is a late 90s style authenticity tag, I believe.
The first Cabats had a one line alphanumeric sequence like 10500107395NE (for example) until they moved to a definite style number, leather code, and colour code. My Cabat knowledge is not strong though. :flowers:

We may have witnessed one of the first replica Cabats. The more I look at that the more that tag isn't right - Mousse's tag from that same 'era' has a light yellow pattern on the white background and the "Cabat" tag listed looks plasticky and like it was out of a cosmetic bag or something. Also, I did mention the handles, but Cabat handles are made out of a total of four thicknesses of leather by the time they are folded and stitched; the handles on this "Cabat" seem to be missing any inner core and are flat in some areas. After much research, I am withdrawing my 'authentic' stamp and putting this one firmly on the side of 'not authentic'.

Thanks so much again, Indiaink! You really have sharp eyes on the handles. I didn't even notice that. Somehow the first holder took that bag and I didn't get it. Lucky me, though!! You ladies here are all superb. Thank you!!
