You will be pleased because it is indeed dark violet. Crocus is more of a purple-blue and does not come with gold g12 hardware. Congrats and let me know your thoughts when you get it!

YAY! I was hoping but I wasn't sure.
Thank you so much Saira! If I could, I would reach through the computer and give you a BIG HUG! :hugs:

I'm so excited,like a child at Christmas! I think I may have to wait until Christmas to use her as it's my husband's gift to me. :laugh:
I'm so happy I waited, I got a very good deal, $500. less than the other one I was eyeing that had the shortened strap & I just happened upon it by chance.

Thank you so much for all your help! You're so sweet & a valuable asset to the TPF community! :urock:

Thank you bunches PeaceBabe, that's very kind!
Yes, it is somewhat of an obsession :laugh: I even have purple tile in my kitchen! :p
Lucky for me, my DH likes it a lot too.

I can't wait to see the Dark Violet in person- I'm certain it's exactly what I want & I'm grateful to Saira for suggesting it.

Thanks again! I just adore all you gals- you're such wonderful assets to the TPF community! We would all be lost without you! :heart:

Saira, could you help with some info please? How does the men's day/messenger differ from the men's courier? I've seen pics of various permutations of the men's day bag with either buckles, studs or nothing at all on the bottom corners, and with at least a couple of different styles of straps. Are the style changes just variations from year to year? Is there a chart somewhere?
I know you've seen this one before, we discussed the colour/year/type of leather before I bought it. It's definitely a different feel of leather from my 2009 day bag, much softer but the tag numbers seem to coincide with bags from 2009. I know you thought perhaps chevre...the colour is an absolute brown, if anything a hint of almost grey as an undertone, completely neutral. I've added a couple of pics I took of the tag but it's so hard to get the colour right in a photo, very frustrating. Anyway, any info you can give re: day/messenger vs courier would be most welcome, thanks!

Hi Saira, do you know if the lambskin giant 12 rose gold city tote is still in production? Can't find it on the Balenciaga website.

I saw a second hand one online and I'm not sure if it's worth the price because it's a fair bit more expensive than giant silver hardware version.

Rose gold hardware is no longer available. It was discontinued in 2012. The only way to get one is to go the pre-owned route.
