To get down to everyday life with an exotic: how to avoid getting water on it when washing hands (or face). I get water then rust in my watches more often than I like to admit.

I have Poppy and RJ, too! Plus rouge tomatoe which matches carnelian. I love all these colors. Congrats on your growing collection!And guess what. I did get a poppy today!
Does anyone have a real pix of Rouge Vif in a leather? I'm trying to figure out if that's a color that is more fuchsia or more rubyish color with a slight purple undertone. Since I popped for Orange Poppy and Rouge Tomate was actually the color that matched carnelian, I wound up getting poppy then RT. Could not bear to return Poppy it was so beautiful, it was such a pretty orange.
So I have to be really sure about Rouge Vif if I decide to pop for but it looks like a really pretty color
Hi! I am new here, I hope I’m posting correctly... Anyhow, I have two CDCs, one XS and one T1. I love them. I really want the Fauve Barenia PHW, but cannot find an XS/T1 anywhere. Several SAs have told me they have NEVER seen an XS in this leather. Could that really be true? I just tried on the S on the tightest notch, and it’s not as snug as I like. And I hear Barenia gets quite soft, unlike Box. Should I go ahead and get the S? I wanted the Fauve Barenia for summer. Or should I hold out hope that an XS/T1 will someday be made... TIA! Oh - for reference, my wrist is 5.5” 14cm.
No changeCan anyone comment on fuchsia date stamp P compared to M? Wondering if the color changed any and if so how? Thanks
No how
Still the same
I don't know if you are considering exotic, but this is Rouge Vif in gator. The photo on my monitor is accurate to real life. In non-exotics Vif usually looks a little less blood-red and more lipstick than this. It's one of the most "true reds".
I wish I could help but unfortunately I do not own the one from M year. As for the fuchsia gator stamp P, when comparing it to rose scheherazade, the fuchsia is not as vivid and seems a little washed out to me. The best pink gator CDC imo is still rose scheherazade if you can choose. Hope that helps somewhat.Can anyone comment on fuchsia date stamp P compared to M? Wondering if the color changed any and if so how? Thanks
Attached is a picture for your reference. Top (rose S), middle (fuchsia), bottom (bougainvillea)
Not to rain on anyone's parade, b/c this CDC is striking and fun, but I think with wear those fibers could get a little fuzzy. On the other hand, who cares?
What's the underside of the CDC like? I think it may also come in b&W. I couldn't tell from thumbnails how the B&W was made.
This is beyond gorgeous. But I hesitate with exotics b/c I wash hands & face (in hot weather) a lot with soap and water. I'd likely mess up the exotic. On the other hand it's such delicious eye candy, I am happy just looking at it.
Lipstick? That's like a true red, maybe what I could call a Chinese red, a blue-red? Thanks for the description.
I would like a red with a tiny tiny touch of purple.
I got the poppy orange, it was more me.
Oh, i saw the exhibit with their wagons, dresses and most.....the letters they wrote.
So sad letter about their unpossible love.And i also went to a show with a woman that play Axel von Fersen, i have some picture from the mansion in the chanel side.
It was very entertaining to watch her switch to Axel, and to Marie and she also cryed when she told us about the unpossible love and how they die.
Thank you. Bougainvillea is a very nice watermelon shade. Here are some pictures for your reference.I LOVE the red one.

Which do you prefer? I'm looking for a RGHW black CDC. I already have the black box PHW. I love the look of the box with RGHW, but worry about getting splashes on it. Does box leather blister? Stain? I don't mind wear/patina, and know scratches buff out of box nicely. But I do *not* want damage. I personally think the box looks better than the epsom with RGHW. But I am not dainty and know epsom is much more durable. It's my belt leather of choice. So, do I go for aesthetics (smooth box) or for durability (stamped epsom)? And please feel free to share your experience with box CDCs! Thanks so much

Have you considered gator? It looks gorgeous with RGHW. Not as durable as Epsom but drop dead gorgeous.
