Well, the fact that Epsom didn’t exist in 1993 is IMO pretty well known / easy to find information so...and there are many stories of how entrupy is not reliable if you search the forum. I would definitely recommend you to get a second opinion even just for the peace of mind.

Bababebi is the very best & about the only one we would all recommend and trust for H. You can find her contact info here:

I think you will find it ends well, but no, Entrupy is not reliable. Since it's software-based it should be programmed to recognize the date stamp and know the bag cannot be Epsom - that's actually a huge miss. That said - the fact is, since Hermès is not providing its internal authentication criteria to Entrupy, Entrupy cannot possibly be reliable.
Bababebi is reliable :)

Great advice from QF above, I also wanted to note that there are several straps available from Hermès in various color combinations that can be purchased alone. For example Tressage straps or other multicolor straps that may have complementary colors. Since it is not fully one color, when one color is quite close it will match.

Thank you!
I already paid and got in contact! Hopefully things get sorted out! Will update you for the help that you have given me!

Vestiaire has been kind to reply to all my questions regarding this item and it seems that a refund will be possible if it doesn’t adhere to bababebi’s standards.

thank you!
I was actually looking at some of these however I do like the look of a thinner strap more.
maybe just a color that is very close would suffice but yes, very tricky !

I’m happy to announce that Bababebi was so quick and so accommodating! She said the bag is indeed authentic
More details about the color or leather will come in the certificate maybe? :)

I would like to thank you Both for the recommendation!!!

Congrats!! Enjoy your bag. Color is always hard to pinpoint in photos, to me (on my screen) it reads a little like Chocolat. Whatever it is it’s a beauty!

Not to stray too far off topic, so feel free to check out the thread about stand-alone bag straps if you have any interest, but there are various strap lengths and thicknesses available, or you could wait for your store to order you the closest match in the traditional Kelly strap. Here are some tressage straps compared to a K25 strap, when worn it does not look bulky and for me, it is actually a bit more comfortable than the thinner traditional strap. The Kelly is a different color than the coordinating color in the strap (rouge H?), but see how well it matches?

These are just perfect! I might go to my local Hermes store to see what they have!

I was passing by Hermes store today and saw this beautiful bag :heart: there was a big queue and I had no time to wait that long to enter into the store, so my question is: what is this gorgeous bag and colour:love:
Hermes website is of no help at all :sad:
