It's kinda hard to see the stitching since your bag is black but thank you for the pictureI was a bit worried because the first double stitching on my bag overlaps with the last single stitching
I think my bag is kinda like yours too?

Need help from the lovelies who own the new teen size. I just purchased a pre-owned one in Antique Rose and noticed two strange things after the purchase (has not been shipped yet).
1. Logo: the acute accent on the first "E" is missing.
2. Made In Italy: the font is not italics (all caps).
Can you please check your purse and let me know about the accent mark and the "Made in Italy"? TIA
P.S. Seller provided a photo of the date code (3rd photo).

I purchased the teen bag in antique rose in store and can confirm the logo and made in stamp are the same as yours. The logo accent was dropped when Hedi took over as creative director.
Thank you for the confirmation!
I saw your post and how stunning the Antique Rose looked on you and this greatly influenced my decision to purchase!
I am unable read the date code with some certainty beyond "S-LA-4XXX". Since the number correspond to week-year-week-year, the last three digits look odd. If you know what your last 4 digits are, kindly to do tell such that I can verify at least it's suppose to be wywy format.

You should ask the seller to provide you the date code. It's hard to see from the picture. I assume you have some doubts regarding the authenticity of this bag and unfortunately, it cannot be confirmed by just looking at the logo and "made in Italy" stamp

Do date codes for the Teen bags follow the week-year-week-year format for the last 4 digits?
Seller for a pre-owned bag provided this date code "S-LA-4867" for a Teen box bag. So this date code does not make sense in the wywy format.
If you have a Teen, can you please kindly check the date code format? TIA
hmm yah I believe date code should be WYWY. This date code does not make sense at all. I don't think Celine has changed their date code formatting.
I called Celine customer service today with a modified story that a Teen bag I purchased at their store does not follow the WYWY last 4 digit format. The CS person said that many of their recent bags do not have a "date code" but a "manufacturer's code", therefore the WYWY would not apply to some. I do not know how knowledgeable this person was and no way of knowing if this is accurate information.
I honestly don’t remember, but I’m pretty sure it is since that’s the only brown color in teen size on their website.
I looked at mine teen black I been looking everywhere up and down I cannot see the date code. I only can see the Made In Italy in the internal compartment on the top as per you second photo
I bought the bag in May this year in Celine store. I have been looking many times that I cant find the date code - so it could be a new thing that some bags they don't put any codes anymore, considering fakes also can do the same.
I suggest you take as many photos as you can and get them authenticated. At least two authenticators that are good in authenticating Celine.
Another good way to check is the hexagonal screw shape on the clasp. Have a search in google and try to look at some picture and get some idea

got the teen in black - I like the camel too but colour is too light for me. The medium is way too big and doesn't look good to wear across shoulder as I am not a tall person. Teen is perfect in a way that I can wear across my shoulder or I can adjust the strap to move it shorter and looks good on my shoulder in winter long jackets
haha if there is photo opportunity will show some pics
Further my post, my prediction was right. Not long after I bought the bag the price was marked up for another 10%. Hahahha
Covid has forced many brands to mark up the bags to cover the losses, if you do like it don't wait, buy now!
Yes it would fit the XS Max with case but the side will be stretched a little. Without the case it fits fine with no stretching.
