My most exciting Bal purchase experience so far just arrived. Only four days all the way from Japan. Super impressed!
Based on these listing pics I'd say it was slightly insane to press the buy button...for me anyway...:whistle:. I was sure it's Bronze, but still. That listing was lacking in, well everything. Haha.

The description was very descriptive containing only one word: USED (yes, in all caps), lol.

Color has rubbed off on the side of the front zip. Doesn't bother me though.

The mirror...oopsie. Good thing I don't care about the them at all.

All in all not too shabby, I think. Glad I went nuts and bought this baby.
Thanks for looking! :hbeat:

Impossible to capture the real shade. It’s a mixture of gray & brown. Kinda Taupe. I like it!
:nuts:
Did a research online and every bag shows color variations!

Eeep!! Thank you, dear! Lol, I only saw your post in the finds thread after pulling the trigger. So happy to finally have a metallic Day! 🥰

Super soft agneau, yahhh! I had a Bronze Work and the softness was mindblowing! Couldn't believe it's not chevre. :girlsigh:

Thank you, love! :hugs:
They accept returns, so it was relatively safe to JUST DO IT, haha.

Many Bal metallics are shockingly soft and supple. You'd think the metallizing effect would beat the softness out, but no. I recently pulled out a later LE metallic navy bag and could not believe how silky soft it was. I spent far too long to be considered sane just petting it.

It's an 05 metallic?
