Is this the same Willis you asked about just a few posts before this one?

it is different willis. I bought 1st without the strap, then I encounter another with strap, l so I end up bought 2 of it. As I'm new to collecting vintage Coach, I'm not too sure if it is genuine.
 
@Hyacinth - She's asking about 2 different bags.

I answered the second one (made in Turkey) here:

The first is also authentic, made in the US in 1996.

ETA: Note that several pictures in the listing aren't the actual bag but apparently are examples the seller found on the internet. As long as the bag you receive is the one shown after the first stolen picture and before the last, it's fine.
Thanks BeenBurned. Just what to further check, does Willis 9972 strap come in dog leash clasp type and does the hardware (brass) color fade over time as most of the Willis 9972 I come across online, all of them are in lobster claw clasp.

If BeenBurned authenticated it, it's genuine. But the strap may not be the original one. From what I remember, all the original straps on Willises made before year 2000 had the trigger-type clasp. The clasps were plated so sometimes the plating could wear off. Also, the Willis style number is 9927.

Genuine Equestrian (not Thompson) Drawstring from 1997.
 
Hi, here's another bag I bought from a thrift shop years ago before I knew about this forum :heart: I was wondering if anyone could tell me if it's authentic and what's the model name? I thought it would be from the Hamptons collection so I went through web archive versions of Coach website pages but couldn't find this model. The code inside the creed is J0820-F13069
