Hi.

First time posting on this site.

I just bought this bag, but in black:
http://m.ebay.com/itm/371393903886

I know it's older because it has a pen holder but no phone pocket. Anyone know when it was made or the model name?

I didn't know the brand when I bought it. I liked the minimal, sleek style. It's been perfect as a work but also all around bag for me. It holds papers and my iPad but is slim and comfortable for everyday.

The leather quality seems incredible. In fact, for a vintage bag I've been worried because it's in such incredible condition. Anyone know if this model was ever counterfeited?

Thanks!
 
I have been a huge fan of the Simplissime and finally saw one in person. Everything about this bag is flawless. The stitching and workmanship is impeccable, it is lined in buttery, gorgeous calf, and the baby smooth exterior makes one want to weep. Delvaux is the oldest fine leather luxury goods company in the world, so it would be fun to have a Delvaux thread on PF up with the other Luxury brands.

I also saw Delvaux bags irl for the first time yesterday, and am a fan of the Simplissime too! I love that closure, easy to open and close yet distinctive! I got the PM size yesterday, leather is so yummy, the bag is light weight and compact but actually fits quite a lot. And I love how I can carry it single or double strap. Overall very smart design, functional, and good quality! Love the simple and clean minimalist look!
