Is that the new 38mm width.
I like the new packaging, with a bag rather than a former; really useful for travel.
It is the 32 mm. I haven't seen the new 38 mm one, although I did see a larger Oscar buckle belt that I assumed was the 42 mm. Maybe it was the new 38 mm.

I like the dust bag too. The spiral curls up one part of the belt (towards the centre of the spiral) a bit too much, while this dust bag allows the belt to just curl a bit more naturally.
 
Hi, if you scroll up few messages above, I have Steve messenger bag in black (not Caporal but size 35).

1. Not really a hassle, almost the same as belt-type messenger bag closure. Most of the time I just wear it without fastening the straps and I think it's secure enough, because it has a wide flap that cover the opening.

2. Shouldn't be a problem with weather. The leather is finished (coated, as opposed to Barenia which is uncoated). However it will get sloppy overtime so now I made an internal bag support to maintain its shape.

3. The appearance most likely does not change (unlike Barenia). My bag in the picture is 10 years old and looks almost the same as new. It just get more slouchy over time.

Wow, it really does look brand new. Says it all about Hermes quality! Now I want one even more. :)

Thanks for your input man.

Just finished cleaning up my Sac à Dépêches 41. Not bad looking at all for a 9-year old bag!
