No, you're not imagining it. we've seen a few of those before. The style number doesn't seem to exist either, and there are quite a a few other problems. The strap is completely wrong and very cheaply made, the year code is for two years before the Tribeca line was even introduced, the creed punctuation isn't right ... you get the idea.

Thank you so much! I thought the leather looked very wrinkly too and not like a Coach. I appreciate your response!

It's a POCKET PURSE (NOT penny pocket) and was made in 1997.

Thanks in advance for your kindness.

Hello, I recently found this coach bag at my local savers and was wondering if it was real? and if so what year it was made and if there's any specific name or title attached to this bag. Thank you!

 

[LunaSilver]

It's DEFINITELY real, and I'm Definitely jealous! Loves me some reds - enjoy it!

(BTW, if you think of it, could you measure the strap end to end when you get a chance? Someone mentioned a while back that they'd seen longer straps on Ramblers other than the stock 43-inch version. Mine is 48 inches end to end and I wonder if there actually are others out there. That extra 5 inches makes a big difference. )

Received Rambler today, she is in good condition and clean. The strap end to end is about 44”, a little too short for my like. But I made a red strap from veg tanned leather in the past (48”), and the color matches, so I will use that strap instead.






ETA: found another red strap that is a better fit, it is longer (52”) so I can leave longer strap ends from buckles ( I think looks better), and this strap is 1.5” wide, it will be more comfortable for a large bag such as Rambler.

Both are genuine. The brown one is a Station Bag style 5130 from the early 1990s, the black one is a Patricia's Legacy from 1999.

There aren't enough photos to authenticate. Please read the top post on every page of this thread, the one that says "IMPORTANT - READ ME" IN BOLD LETTERS. Read it and follow the instructions.
