I love this bag. I remember seeing it the last time I was in a boutique and thought it was gorgeous! Congrats on your first Chanel! I think she's a keeper!
It's REV, i.e. revolving. As far as I know, only black and certain Beige Claire have the prestige being part of classic collection instead of a seasonal. For each season, they release classic style with seasonal colors and the tag will show season/collection. Congrats.View attachment 4976881View attachment 4976882
Classic Small Flap SHW. I included the price tag for anyone that need some info. It’s true, only USA bought items comes with price tag. If you buy in Paris, London, they remove it.
ANYBODY know what series this is or what year? How to decode?

Hi all I need help please. I just got my Chanel caviar WOC with silver hw today. I was on the waiting list for 3 months and I was so excited when it arrived. Unfortunately I was disappointed at the same time. The caviar leather is so dry (looks like black grey) and rough, the edges are even more rough when touching. May I have your opinion that have you had bags with this kind of caviar? To be honest, it looks like plastic and doesn’t look like a good quality I paid for it. Any comments would be appropriated it. I have attach photos too many thanks

It does look a bit dry. If you aren't absolutely thrilled with your purchase, consider returning it. I know you've waited a long time to buy this WOC, but if you feel the quality is lacking you might not be as interested in using it. And it's a lot of money to spend to sit in your closet.
Thank you so much for your reply! I decided to return it! It’s too dry and also too rough to touch specially around the edges of the bag. I will go tomorrow and I’m not their regular customer hope everything will be okay
You should be able to return it no problem, especially if it's rough around edges.Thank you so much for your reply! I decided to return it!

Shoutout and massive thank you to Nat74 for helping me track this baby down.
I live in a country without a Chanel store, the nearest being a 2-hour plane trip across the ocean, so I usually have to buy it on my travels, or at the mercy of local personal shoppers who are based abroad. I sent out price requests for this bag... and they were charging an exorbitant mark-up, which made me initially decide not to get it.
But she’s just so beautiful and I couldn’t get her out of my head, so I decided to turn to the ISO thread, just in case! I’ve been reading stories of you guys getting your Chanels shipped to your addresses in the States, so I thought I’d try my hand.
Lo and behold, Nat74 told me that the NM in SF had it on display, so I sent the SA an email, telling him of my predicament. To my relief, he was not put off by my um, sheer enthusiasm, lol. Also I live in Asia, so I had to do my interactions with him at 6:30AM my time, 2:30 SF time.
I had it shipped to my forwarder in the States (I really kept a close eye on the Fedex tracker because Farfetch very recently just lost a pair of Margiela jeans I ordered -_-) and two weeks later, she was delivered to our house, box and camellia and ribbon and all.
Funnily enough, I spotted her in the side mirror while I was backing into the garage. Apparently our helper put the box on top of a bigger box in the garage, but I had stared enough times at the photo of it that the forwarder had sent to just know that it was THE BOX. In my giddiness, I inadvertently started shrieking, startling my mom. Please remember that I was backing my car into the garage, so my mom had thought that I went into a temporary bout of sanity, lol
Anyway, she’s here! I can finally stop looking at her so longingly wherever I can catch a glimpse of her on the internet...
Next on my list, those cute scrunchies with the bow... Now that I have an SA on my Whatsapp, this is proving to be very dangerous territory...
Gorgeous bag by the way! So happy you were able to get it!

Sure, send me a DM!
Hi - did you find anything else out about this caviar? I just bought a 29 series wallet from japan that has the same look - and it feels rough and dry too- but also pretty lightweight - like lighter than I expected. I was thinking it might be fake - like plastic - but seeing your Woc - I'm starting to think it was just weird caviar.
I returned mine because it was so rough and dry I felt like I was holding cardboard. The leather looked off too. Yours looks better than mine. Enjoy it. My WOC wasn’t light weight
Thanks! I'm going to have mine authenticated just to make sure it's not plastic
Gorgeous! I am eying up one of these at the moment - any particular advice on Arras of wear to look out for please? And do you think it can carry a small laptop? Thanks in advance
