Close up photos of my 2016 BBK. Since the blind date stamps are no longer being used. I wonder how would we figure out the years going forward.

Here's a close up photo of the 2015 box calf bag. It's Raisin box. Photo was taken at night and under spotlights.

While the box leather feels smooth, the grains are visible under the spotlights. View attachment 3486483
Raisin is such a beautiful color in box.[emoji7] What color is the contrast stitching? Your SO is truly very special as I heard it is very difficult to request box leather.[emoji173]️
 
I looked at the Sac Monaco when QF first mentioned it and thought it looked very much like the Kelly but square or rectangular rather than trapezoid. It looked superb.
