Black BW blue zipper and old hardware - yay or nay?

[kattiee]

I don't own any RM bags (my first one is on my way though) so I do not have a preference between old and new hardware; which hardware looks better on a black bw without the blue zipper? And is the blue zipper a must have or does the black bw without the blue zipper just fine? I'm not sure if I'll be able to find a black bw with blue zipper again when I gather my handbag fund and don't want a black bag that looks boring. Thanks!

A couple of my IRL friends have this bag and it looks GREAT! I love the blue zipper and old hardware on it.

For me, BBW with the blue zipper is a must. I would never think twice of the bag if it didn't have the blue zipper track.

Definite yay! I had both versions (the one with the old and the new) and I prefer the old hardware.

If you can buy the BBW with the old hardware, and blue zipper. It makes it stand out. You know give it a little edge.

I absolutely LOVE it with the blue zipper! Without it, it's just not as special IMHO...

You know my vote as I just bought one!

I think if you are a "Black" bag kinda girl, this is a must have classic RM!!! I personally prefer old hardware, but I guess that is ultimately up to you! Good Luck, with this bag you can't go wrong imo!

I really want a black bw WITH BLUE ZIPPER. I'm afraid that it will lose its appeal without it. Anyone own a black bw with regular zipper and don't mind at all?

You know my vote as I just bought one!

I hope I can find one in the future bc I totally missed out on it Are you going to post pics??

I have the BBW w/ the old h/w and blue zipper and it's one of my favorite bags!!

 

[Azumie]

YAY, classic style that's also very popular and the zip is such a nice contrast and pop against the BW.

Sorry, I did not mean to ask for yay's or nay's on a bbw with blue zipper (what was I thinking?). I LOVE the bbw with blue zipper. What I wanted to know is if the bbw with plain zipper is just as nice as the one with the blue. Did anyone buy a bbw with plain zipper and are you happy with your choice, or do you wish you could've bought one with the blue? IYO does the bbw loose its appeal without the blue zipper? Thanks!
