Date code dilemma

[Rituals83]

Hi, I bought a bag directly from LV website last week and received it today and out of curiosity I was checking the date codes. It begins with TB and is made in Italy. The full date is TB2199 and when I try to decode it, it comes up as invalid. Would appreciate if someone could help me out here or does anyone else’s recent purchase have a TB code too? Thanks

Don't think you need to be concerned if you bought it directly from lv

The week and year format works doesn't it since it is now wk 37.

Sounds okay to me . . . manufactured the 29th week of 2019?
Why/how does it come up invalid?

It is a manufactured date, not shipping, so it seems correct.

The date isn’t an issue it is the referencing TB. Normally the letters would indicate the country of manufacture ( from what I’ve read and seen) but nothing came under TB hence the curiosity.

New two-letter factory codes are added all the time. No need to worry.

I have the same dilemma. My new neonoe has letters BE which don’t show up. Bought directly from LV.

If you bought it from Louis Vuitton, then there is no issue. These date codes are not meant for clients to study. They are for the repair department.

I know, thank you . It would just be nice for at least one other person to confirm they have the same letters as me xx

I have never ever check date codes on anything I buy from LV and I have bought many! As long as you bought your bag directly from LV, there’s no need to worry. LV opens new factories all the time. https://www.google.com/amp/s/hypebeast.com/2019/9/louis-vuitton-hiring-spree-france-info?amp=1
