Heard back from Customer Service from Delvaux, they confirmed All the new Tempete started 2018 has changed and now come with a adjustable strape.
I've been carrying my new tempete MM almost every work day. Such a perfect carry to work bag.
I just saw this East West Brillant on-line. So beautiful!

I have been following this thread and admiring all your beautiful bags here 
Delvaux leather and workmanship seems impeccable and I am drawing to their Tempête or Brilliant (or may be Mutin).
I am looking for a workhorse and ideally in MM size.
As info is very limited online so I thought of turning to our ladies here for some help..
For ladies who are having these bags, may I know
1) If it is easy to get in/out from the bags?
As Brillant need to buckle and unbuckle and therefore I thought this might cause abit of inconveniences especially when we are on the go in subway/bus. I just want to know does this really bother much for those who are having Brillant.
How about Tempête? It seems the design is easier for getting in/out from the bag.
2) How is the weight of all these bags?
I have some heavy bags sitting in my closet and they are become white elephant now. I don't wanna repeat the same mistake again.
3) Are the bags holding their shape well? What about the hardware - will gold/black hardware fade off over time?
I am sorry if I sounded silly here.. Hope to hear from your ladies soon. Thanks in advance ya (^__^)

Highly recommend Tempete MM as a work horse bag. Perfect medium size & not too heavy. The Brillant MM is bigger & heavier. I have no problem opening in & out of Brillant PM which is a smaller size but takes a little more effort on MM. I also think the design of the Tempete is more versatile & modern as an everyday bag.

Hi, I have a Tempete MM and mini brilliant sellier (pm). The Tempete MM is a good size and holds more than the mini brilliant. Both bags are very easy to get in and out of for me. No issues with weight and hardware.

Many thanks @Monique1004 for the comparison photos! Your collection is just amazing
Both opening/closing looks easy to maneuver. So I should choose which design I like better
Is there any weight different between Tempete MM and Brillant MM?

Yes. Big difference. Please note that is also due to the different leather type as well since my Brillant MM is box leather which is thicker & heavier & my Tempete MM is grained calf. The weight below are both with shoulder straps. I don't carry my Brillant with the strap, just with the handle.
I don’t know. Every season is different so it’s hard to tell. The box leather is a little stiff. I like the softness of my Tempete leather. I don’t carry my Brillant mm much because it’s heavy. I like that leather on my mini though.
