She is here!! After almost 1.5 months of waiting when I am on the brink of losing hopes of getting her. Sorry to those who have to read this the second/third time, but I wanted to give some strength to those who are still waiting for her. After all, this thread was the one who kept me going with this little ray of hope in me, seeing that others are gradually getting her. Patience can pay off and yup - my money is going directly to Chanel and not through resellers
I would say the quality of the leather is not any lesser than the 21C Navy I used to have. It’s just more matte and I actually prefer that. It’s soft and feels pretty luxurious.
Funny how I was actually trying to get a cab for a long time at the roadside, to go home after lunch with my hubby. Then things took the most amazing turn when I got a text from my SA that she had this brown chanel 19 for me and asked if I was still interested in it. What a question and of course I was! In my exhilaration, I did a happy dance at the roadside, my hubby could only chuckle seeing me turn around literally in circles. Off I got on the cab to make the best detour ever to the boutique

Thanks for letting me share!
