The Bleeckers were widely faked, so if you have any concerns about a questionable detail, the best thing to do is to ask in the Authenticate thread. I can't find any Bleeckers in Gray either, but that doesn't prove much. Sometimes colors didn't make it into the catalogs.
The Fall 1999 catalog offered a few of the Bleeker styles in dark grey! If you find the photos of the canvas/leather Bleekers, it will also list the style number of the companion all leather Bleeker and a list of available colors!

a good catalog. And tPF!
I owned a 9303 in gray at one time. The prefix was H9D so it was made in 1999.The Fall 1999 catalog offered a few of the Bleeker styles in dark grey!

Gotcha, no questions on authenticity. Just wondering if maybe it’s faded black or navy. Seller lists it as gray.
Here you go, as Lake Effect said 1999 Fall catalog lists dark gray as color for bleeker leather 9303, I have a Bleeker 9303 made in 1999 sometimes it looks very dark gray other times it looks black, put it next to my definitely black Bleeker 9306 it looks a different shade of black. (I collect Bleeker, love the leather).

the picture you posted looks black to me.
I bought a really worn Bleeker bag, the style that is the smallish brief size. It could pass for gray because of the wear but the interior bits tell me is is black!
I fell in love with a navy Bleeker Basket bag I found in like new condition back around 2006. I think it planted the seed to dig in hard for vintage Coach! That was when I had about 8 bags in total and would carry them for two months or more at a time!!!
Sorry, if there's a photo link or scan of something, I'm not seeing it. My ancient computer keeps losing access to more and more images on more and more websites. And I'm sure Tiktok would be one of those. I can't see FB or Twitter or Reddit either, or any other social media sites. But thanks for the effort.
ETA - I can see a photo that's a Tiktok link but can't make the video play.
