Batch code check online says made 15th April 2014.
Agree consensus is all cursive text = better version /vintage.
Interesting that, code checkers not always accurate.
I saw a listing for a vintage "x" that says it was purchased in 2008, yet the batch code gives 2013 date. One of those things.
The zino looks good though, ebay =buyer protection so good on that front too![]()
That is the more favorable one.
Remember that while it is perfectly acceptable to criticize the content of a post - criticizing the poster is not.
Mean spirited, nasty, snide, sarcastic, hateful, and rude individuals on Basenotes don't warrant or deserve my or other Basenoters' acknowledgement or respect.
Yes, it is.
Yes, my understanding is that is a very early version - remember that for many companies the batch codes are repeated every 10 years.

Most likely and from a personal, subjective viewpoint alone: quite possible that yes
why would it say 2014?
What date does it actually refer to?
it doesn't inspire confidence, that an actual batch code can't be accurately checked to an actual date.
That's the vintage alright.
