Can someone help identify this bag model and year?]

It's a vintage BV pre-Tomas when bags were not named and date codes were not printed on the back of the tag. The leather was called Marco Polo. Looks to be in fabulous condition and appears to be authentic. The lining is in great shape. Do you own it?

It is very worn! The leather has gotten that crinkly look.
The zipper pull on the outside pocket has a little leather knot:

The main zipper for the middle compartment is a oval with a circular cutout and some kind of triangular design on the sides of the cutout: http://i.imgur.com/jpu7s6l.jpg

The zipper pull on the pocket by the plaque is a little diamond shaped cutout: http://i.imgur.com/BwZ2AhA.jpg

All of the zipper pulls look authentic. I can't explain why they aren't the same, but I still think it's authentic vintage.

Hi Mousse,

Yes I own the vintage black bag that you commented on. This bag has never been used, and has been in storage brand new for a while in the original dust bag with original paper stuffing in the bag. What do you think the value of the bag might be?

Thanks in advance!

I would like to ask the forum about the red color of the BV servo hobo from 2009. Is the red leather color more orange/red or blue/red?

Do you mean Fever from cruise 2009/2010? If so, the Cervo hobo is a very tomato red. There are no blue undertones.

If you do indeed mean Fever, it also has no orange undertones - it is a true clear red. (Just picked up one myself, Mousse - we are bag twins! Love this color!)

I just purchased my first BV. It's pre-loved and the seller didn't give any info on year or color name, so I'm hoping y'all can help me figure it out. I know it is a medium belly, and I'm guessing it's from 2010 because there is a 2010 on the label, but I could be totally wrong.

I'm a nerd and have a spreadsheet of all my bags with all their info so I'm hoping I can fill in the blanks. I'm also curious if you know the original retail price.

All of these photos are from the seller. I can't for the life of me get a picture of the bag that isn't making it look like bright fuchsia. Thanks a bunch!!

any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. thanks!

I commented on your 'authenticate this' post as well - I am sorry to say that I have no experience with this style, but I can tell you the straps don't look quite right - so hopefully someone who is familiar with this can comment.
