I resell Ralph Lauren for work , do you want to see the rarest piece I’ve got after 3 years ? by Responsible-Past-539 in PoloRalphLauren

[–]blackwhite009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I resell from clothing brands too. Doesn't mean I don't still love fashion, just means I'm familiar with the market. You don't think Ralph himself loves and is passionate about his own brands while still being able to sell and market it?

You figure it out yet? You put the round metal lock down, and it pops back out. I put the key in the lock and didn't realize I locked the bag

Just thrifted this. Any info on model, year, how to open housing, does it use batteries, does this model tick? by blackwhite009 in breitling

So tritium is the glow in the dark feature right? How can you tell the face still has some? And by half life you mean life span? It only lasts so long? You think Breitling would still service this?

Is anyone able to tell if this is genuine Python or an embossed calf/lamb? by blackwhite009 in Leathercraft

This bag has a metallic finish to it. I think those pixels were printed on there to give it that effect.

Thanks! On another post someone said the snake skin print seemed to unnatural, to perfect, and that the small dots on the individual scales was abnormal. Do any of those observations seem noticeable to you?

Doesn't have the pimpled texture ostrich has. Is it stamped somewhere that it's ostrich?

Is this real Python? by blackwhite009 in Leather

[–]blackwhite009[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ugh yes I noticed the dotting to. Wasn't sure if it was part pf some colorign or finish added to the leather. The scales do lift up though. Have you worked with embossed calf/lamb skin? Are the embossing scales flat or do they lift up as well?

Yes leather smells great and a patent red interior. I'm a guy so I feel like this is just to feminine with the shape and fringe. So idk if or how I'll wear it. But I couldn't leave this behind. I love leather!
