Quite possible. The bag in question is photographing a lot darker than EB, and mine is just so chewy and soft, so the leather has to be from a dif season.

Pretty sure its Blue Roi, which based on everything I can find, appears to be prone to this kind of fading
TRR had a City last year that looked almost identical to this Day

I have a feeling I was living a lie all these years :facepalm:

10 years ago I found a cheap ROUILLE weekender according to the seller and absolutely never questioned it. It was not in a good condition in some places and I sent to LMB telling them that it was a rouille and I wanted to restore it (handles yuk) and according to me they did a fabulous job. At the same time they saved my Mulberry Bays in oak Darwin and gave it another 50 years.

Back to weekender, I got it back and was so excited. Of course it felt a bit plasticky because of color restoration but OK be it, I had a rouille weekender to abuse it in planes, on carryon …. it traveled the world with me. First time I peaked at the tag was today. An M tag ???? There were no rouilles then ? But there was a Orange Brulee. So thinking that I have a rouille I was skipping fabulous rouille bags and bought an amazing orange brûlée city.

Then tonight I read here on PF a discussion about which color and leather is better 2006 rouille or 2014 rouille ???? What now ?

What on Earth is this color then ? It was re-done by LMB.

Can we see the tag front and back?
 
This one is for my Blue Bal pals
I'm not sure what color this but there are 2 things I def know about it.
1. It is not a 2005
2. It is chevre
So here's what me thinks, it's either a 2006 Blueberry, 2007 Marine, or a 2007 Ocean.
What's your opinions? My OCD needs to know lolIMG_3329.jpegIMG_3331.jpegIMG_3332.jpegIMG_3333.jpeg
