That Gaby is reeeeeeeeeeeeealllllllllllly cute!
May I ask- was the twisting lock mechanism difficult to close, especially when the bag was on your shoulder? I wonder if, when full, the flap will start to triangulate, or gap when open because of weight and the softness of the flap’s leather. The body reminds me of a H Bolide. The Gaby will probably get smooshy. It’s a gorgeous bag!!!!!
Please, one more question.
Is the Gaby feel awkward when open because of the top handle? I’m wondering I forgot it bumps against the hip.
Thank you!
I have the MM and the lock is easy to maneuver, and there is a magnet/latch or something so it stays closed even when the outside pointy part isn't fully engaged.That Gaby is reeeeeeeeeeeeealllllllllllly cute!

The snaps are not very tight and do open rather easily when the bag is filled, but there isn't an issue with the flap. And, regarding the handle, the strap is adjustable so it's easy to get it in the "right spot" so it feels comfortable. And the construction is rounded, rather than flat like a Kelly handle. Lastly, the leather is indeed very smooshy to begin with so will only get more so with age, I am sure. (To me it feels sort of like a cross between H Clemence and Togo - it's thicker than togo but veiny and has a matte appearance.)
I love the Gaby too!
Thanks for confirming! I turn the big 3-0 this year and want to make sure I get a bag that will last for years to come. Who knew a decision like this would be so hard! Wish I didn't like them all LOL
I will definitely keep you posted on what I decide.
Thanks for confirming! I am planning a trip in June - hopefully they may have one in the boutique to view!The NYC boutique told me the Gaby will start trickling in the end of summer.
More eye candy texted to me from Curtis in the NYC boutique. They just got in one mm Gaby and an E/W Quattro in a new color for this season. And yes, the mini Gaby bags are due (in NYC) by the end of summer (probably August/September). He’ll send photos and I’ll post them, as they come in.
Your Rèjane is gOrGeOuS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love the color and the gold hw accent! Yowwwwwy!!!!!!!!!!!
Enjoy your bag, but I warn you, you’ll probably get tired of luxury bag lovers approaching you telling you how beautiful your bag looks and probably asking you the brand.
Moynat= under the radar beauty!

I managed to see and try the moynat mini gaby in hongkong!
Some pictures to show how it wears on me - I’m 4 ft 9 (yeah I’m fun size!). It’s on its shortest length.
Comparing it with the hermes mini halzan
It’s very cute! I’m quite tempted but there are a few bits holding me back - it must be locked at all times, I find that the magnet is not very strong and the bag will open up if you dont lock it ; the interior leather is light coloured (i’m bound to dirty it) and it is too slouchy!
I have the celine nano belt / hermes mini bolide on my mind as well.. indecisions!
