Wow.. if I were you I won't know which one to take!
I know! I had to go away and sleep on it as both were stunning and I couldn't do both as I know I have a hg B30 and a C24 arriving at any moment! I have a soft spot for chevre Rose lipstick even though I have a perfectly lovely blue de prusse Kelly wallet I only bought myself for my 40th a couple of years ago but I love how my Rose lipstick calvi brightens up the contents of my bag! I kind of wish it was the smaller size and then I wouldn't have had to think! The C wallet was a curveball for me as I had never seen one and blue paon was amazing but it came down to me thinking it was too big for everyday use and amazing as it would be as a clutch I only recently got a Jige and my life doesn't really need many clutches so the RL was the winner! At least now I'm certain my first SO later this year is going to be chèvre as it's such an amazing leather! But blue paon now goes on the bag color wishlist too!! This H journey really never ends!!
 
@Melbee, congrats with your first Birkin, it is gorgeous! Was this (geranium lining) a special order? Hope you dont mind to share the size and price of this new beauty?
Thank you! She is a 35. Not a SO but a limited edition verso bag. I think there are three different color combinations they are offering. I believe it was the same price as a regular togo 35.

Thank you for the info, the different lining certainly add extra pizzazz to your already beautiful Birkin! And for the same price! Hope they also come in smaller sizes. Enjoy her in good health and again big Congrats! Maybe you can treat us some modeling pictures later on?

Not sure what the S means
But my mom one is also to the left not centered
View attachment 3582523

Did you buy it recently in a boutique?
I heard it made mean "sale" item..

I got it yesterday from H boutique. Constance will never goes on sales. I think the S stamp means leather stamp beside the year code. So if you look at the year code on leather goods and there is a "S" then it is a sale item but not on metal

it should be for "silver", because the buckle is in silver?

My C has rose gold hardware.. I still don't know what the s is for

It could be the new stamp for 2017?

Ladies, this is really not the proper thread for this question, but for the record, it is Not an S and it is on All gold hardware next to the Hermès-Paris - both gold and rose gold pieces. Belts, wallets, bags, etc.

I apologize for sounding irritated - the problem is Not you, of course; how could you know? - but it's amazing that no one bothered to pipe in with accurate information for you and then people think it's a sale item or something else that's incorrect and confusing.

This has been discussed before - I believe I brought it up, yikes, maybe 10 years ago? - That's how I know it's not an S, I got all sorts of visual magnification on it, it's something in a box - anyway, please do a search before you ask, and if you can't find the answer, start a thread in the correct forum.

Apparently I need a snickers bar. Or some more coffee.

Here's a magnified picture. Not sure if it's the same mark, but I read somewhere it's a horse?? :confused1:

I asked for advice recently on which bag to get before I leave Europe...I have an 'only pre-loved' policy with designer bags (I might elaborate on that later if this is of interest :drinks:) so I wanted to get another K or B before I left Europe for the next 5-6 years, as I'd probably be too busy once I moved to Seoul, let alone that I don't know any resellers there. I still got a lot of advice to wait which was the best advice, but my impatience is probably impossible to tame, I've now realised :giggle::giggle::giggle:

I actually did consider waiting but then the reseller I usually buy from said, 'you will not believe what we got'. I never expected I would get this colour though I'd admired it a lot (I'd also been unsure about it before mainly because I've heard people being not particularly enthusiastic about it). I took a big breath and I did it! Sometimes I think I am crazy but I actually ended up completing my H collection in the space of two weeks :happydance:

So this is part one of the reveal, part 2 will come after I've moved because I've packed that bag already and its too snug to disturb :blah:
This is who came in today...

Birkin 35 in Gris Mouette (Seagull Grey, new 2016 colour) & Bleu Agate interior!
I initially was pining after a blue bag because I don't have any at all in that colour even though its one of my favourite colours. At the same time I thought I needed a neutral B to complete my collection (I got a Geranium one as an xmas gift, totally not neutral!)

** By the way, may I mention that I love this forum for NOT judging people for being a ball of first-world problems? :lol::lol::lol:**

So this was the perfect bit of kismet. A slightly bluish neutral with blue inside. I was also quite taken with Bleu Agate because it is quite close to Bleu Thalassa, my favourite H colour of all time.

Like I said I was not completely sure I liked Gris Mouette - in some swatches it looked like a very flat, boring cement grey while in some photos it looked like a very pretty almost bluish grey. When I got this bag though I fell in love with GM - its a very, very cold colour but its very deep and has the most charming baby-blue tint to it. :drool:

Thank you for letting me share!
