Hello im new here.
I purchased a speedy B in 2013 is the quality really better? But the hadware does not match.
I too, recently purchased my Speedy B in DE. Napansin ko agad na iba yung kulay nung hardware on the detachable strap as compared to the bag's zipper pull and D-ring. SA explained that the hardware on the bag itself were made of brass. Gold-plated lang ata yung sa strap itself, kaya iba yung kulay.
