Likely authentic, you should turn off the flash and turn on macro mode when taking closeups so you get clearer photos.
 
This authentication request is for Emi -- hi doll! I have missed you and all your male models. I wanted you to look at this for me if you don't mind. They claim it was a "prototype" but I do not remember this color as being produced. If you could give me your expert opinion, I would be forever grateful! Also, it does not have a limited edition metal tag with number.

I am not Emi, but this Samourai bag is authentic. There are some sample bags for the runway and pre-production events (i.e. photoshoots) that may end up in the hands of editors/journalists and other insiders. Some of these sample bags have features that are later modified during production.

Hello dear! This is a very special bag because the sticker indicates the bag was from the original runway show! That is, the very first batch produced. That is why, like averagejoe said, some details may differ such as the absence of the metal limited edition plaque. Everything checks out and I can verify the style reference written on the sticker when I am at work tomorrow.
 
Joe & Emi - thank you, thank you, thank you! Emi, if you don't mind checking out the number, that would be totally sweet of you! But you have always been our Dior Prince! I love the color of this bag. I hope IRL it is the moody, grey/blue color that shows on my monitor although it may have a greenish cast as well. Maybe it will be one of those chameleon bags that changes color depending on lighting and surroundings.
