Are they blue? Mine only had the plastic on the zipper pull. I left it on for a few days only. I understand how you feel, though. I actually put a piece of a phone screen protector on my Eva brass plate.

Hi
Can you tell me how your hardware is doing with the phone screen protector on it? It would be fine when you take it off? Thanks

I kept it on my Eva for an entire year. When I took it off the hardware was pitted with little spots, like a rash. Not severe but definitely not preserved like new. I wouldn't do it again. Apparently it's very inexpensive to have the plate replaced. Now I have pits AND scratches. The bag still looks great with a shiny plate but you can see the hardware wear if you look close. I think it's better to just use it and if it gets bad, get a new plate. Somewhere I read it was $75. As far as the Pochette Metis hardware, I left it bare metal, over two years, was not careful. There are minor scratches under the closure where you can't see them. When closed it looks new.

Oh wow! That's good to know. I was pretty close to cutting out a screen protector to cover the plate on the Pochette Metis. Now I know not to do that. I guess I will leave the protector that came with the bag on as long as possible until it peels off. I hope it doesn't leave any marks.
Thanks so much for your response!

What are your opinions on the reverse monogram? I'm thinking I really like it but want to see it in person. I have the PM now and LVoe this bag. Not sure I'm willing to sell it for the reverse mono.

Thanks Arlene619! How do you like the psbb? Do you find it holds what you need. I love the look of that bag but keep telling myself with the pm I don't need it. (but what does need have to do with it?) LOL

Oh I forgot about the red/black and then it's coming in empreinte!

Hi, I love it so much!! I hear ya, I didn't NEED this bag but we need to spoil ourselves once in a while right?![emoji14] I really wanted the all mono one at first but after seeing the reverse mono I fell for that one. I love the bag, BUT my biggest complaint is the zipper for the main compartment, it was very stiff at first and harder to open but I'm noticing it's getting easier with use. I have a huge pouf on it that is almost the same size as the bag lol. LV has been killing it lately, good thing I'm broke so I can't purchase anything for a while. Ugh the red/black pm is gorgeous and I'm dying to see the Empreinte version. [emoji7]
