The top Speedy is 10 years old! Can't believe it and still looks good! :D
You can see the contrast from older to brand new. I definitely prefer a nice tan.

Thought to share some pics of my Alma handles after replacement. It's been over a year now!
I used Black rock and lots of sunbathing to speed up the patina process!
Not too bad right :D

She's only 2 months old and just starting to turn. I love this "light tan." I got her from the LV website and she was the whitest vachetta I've ever seen. I don't think she had seen the light of day since production!

Here's a pic of my preloved wc speedy. I love the patina on preloved bags as it means I have to worry less compared to brand new vachetta!

Wow! I think I do too much sun! Both of mine are relatively young lol but much darker (shopper) or about the same as your speedy!
