i have an 06 truffle, the serial numbers are:
140442-213048
genius here just realised they are the same numbers, d'oh!
the colour is a bit different but mine has been a steady workhorse all these years so it is a bit faded...
Thank you, pukasonqo. 06 truffle and 07 sienna both seem like great colors, so I went ahead and ordered the bag. It will be my first chèvre Bal, so I am excited!
no probs, glad to be able to help!
you won't regret it, truffle is a beautiful brown and the day is an easy bag to wear
post pics please!

Hi - I just wondered whether the experts could give their opinion on whether this is a 2007 or 2008 leather? I'm not sure..I thought it was 2008 as it's quite veiny but looking thru the 2007 club pics it could be 2007? I don't have any cards with it unfortunately....
it has the pocket on the mirror and the older inside pocket style, but it doesn't have a 'dot' between the top line of serial numbers on the back of the tag and Sssy thought this was a 'flaw' of 2008 bags?
I;m pretty sure it's chevre tho - was 2008 S/S chevre?
It doesn't really matter which year it is I guess...just curious!

Oh wow, that leather is insane. Does it have any green hues? I think that is the telltale sign of 07 leather. It is probably s/s 08 and likely Chevre before the switch.
Hi! no there are no hints of green at all...it's a deep true shiny black, the veins are very prominent and although not white, it is not what I would call truly saturated - the veins are noticeable, really quite 'marbley' IYKWIM
The marbling is also more akin to 2006 and 2008 leather. Obviously your bag isn't 2006. Also, with 07 black, it wasn't jet black. More of a darker anthra. Hope that helps.
yes you have been a huge help thank you.
Looks very much like the leather on my 2008 Part Time.
