Hi guys, I'm not sure if this is the correct place to post this. But since my wife was wearing a gen rolex dj when I took the picture so here we go:
My wife is a bag connoissuer. She has dozens... literally dozens of high end ladies bags... LV, Bally, Feragamo, Tods, etc... all gens. And she always watches these videos on youtube about how to spot a fake bag. She can tell just from looking at a distance: it's real... it's fake...
Lately, she'd been eyeing a Chanel Boy Bag. She really liked the design, but wasn't quite sure about the size. I mean, for a bag that costs $4/5000, it's rather small & impractical. You know how ladies like to stuff so many things in their bags.
Anyways, she's rather uninterested when I told her I could get that bag for a fraction of the gen price.
So, I contacted Lucy (our TD: Truetime) and asked her about this bag. I gotta tell you, I don't have any clue about ladies bags and I was actually rather skeptical that anybody could get a rep bag that would pass the test of my wife's eagle eyes.
Long story short, Lucy found the bag and I received it today.... and my wife just absolutely loves it! It's soooo beautiful & gen-like, can't tell that it's a rep. It really blew her mind away! And changed her whole perspective on rep stuffs. I don't know how to explain it better, the material... the workmanship... the smell... how it feels when you touch it... Everything is absolutely perfect!

I gotta tell you guys, our wives/ partners put up a lot with our hobby (and spending haha), so it's really nice to be able to give something back to them in return. And the best thing is.... I'm gonna collect a big thank you from her tonite if you know what I mean :kiss:..... I better stop typing & get my rewards...... yeee haaaa!!!!

Lucy is awesome and really probably a great person to have a woman pick out a bag for a woman as I'm sure a lot of the guys over there that sell the watches wouldn't know good from bad in regards to womens bags.

@ABfarm - I like the lines in that pic... the bag is nice, too. :whistling: LOL

But seriously, that is fantastic. How much did you pay for it, if I may ask? My wife would never wear a rep watch in a million years, but I'm thinking that a franken with gen parts that I build myself (or with help) would be acceptable. When it comes to bags, if I could have someone like Lucy on my side to source something as great quality as this, she'd be up for it. The thing is she isn't a brand fanatic, and actually prefers things that we get together when traveling overseas. For instance, we got an amazing leather overnight bag at the leather market in Florence, Italy. We paid 100 Euros for it and it is beautiful. My biggest regret was not buying two of them on the spot. Stuff like that, with no branding, but outstanding quality and with a story and memories behind it is priceless. But there's a place for everything, and a nice hand bag such as the one you bought your wife would also be appreciated! :)
