Just got my first Chloe, an 05 whiskey paddy

Now that is the perfect paddington. It has the three necessary elements I look for in a paddington: 1) 2005 bag. IMO there is no other year better than 2005. 2) smooshy leather 3) pebbles everywhere! I love pebbles.

Congrats on your PERFECT paddington!:yahoo::yahoo::yahoo:
 
Thanks all! I love pebbles too, the more the better!

I am having the "lock dilemma" right now though. I love the look of it, but it annoys me at the same time. I know this is a very common thing with paddy owners. It's still on, but eventually I think I will take it off and give it a break.
