11/30/2022 0 Comments Stubben saddle serial number lookupAll the residual dust is gone, the leather is so smooth, and it feels like it's really durable. I gave it a good saddle soaping, and tomorrow I'll probably soap it again and then attack it with some good leather conditioner. The makers marks under the skirts have blue on them, so would that mean the green on the tree point buttons is discoloration from age? Or is that just how it's meant to be? can tell just looking at it and knowing how slender she is. It's definitely too wide for my filly who is a medium in the Bates/Wintec range. I was sold it as a medium tree, my gelding is a wide in the Bates/Wintec range but I'm told Stubbens tend to be wider as a rule. But I've noticed in other threads that they don't keep records longer than a certain amount of time, so is it even worth bothering? I would be wanting Stubben Australia, right? Or else the manufacturer direct? All I want is a year of manufacture. I may just have a "lifetime" saddle here considering how Stubbens just won't die! I have a thing for European-made saddles, especially Swiss-made, so if this fits my horse I will be a very happy person! I don't mind a harder seat, and if my young Thoroughbred bulks out as much as I hope she will, it should fit her too. When do you think something stamped Romanus RC would have been made? Is there a particular decade in which monoflap dressage saddles were popular? But for the price I just couldn't pass it up. It's only a 17 inch which makes it a touch on the small side for me. I have to wonder how much use it's seen, lady I bought it off commented that it was lovely to ride in and she wouldn't be selling it if it fit her horses. Not too many 10+ year old saddles in such awesome shape. but this one looks to be still in show condition which is AMAZING age considered. Far as I'm concerned if the saddle is nice to ride in and safe it doesn't matter what it looks like or how old it is. I don't REALLY care, it's purely a matter of curiosty. just because if I can find the serial I might be able to find out exactly how old it is. Wonder if there's anywhere I might find the serial number? Being that it's a monoflap I can't exactly check the billet guard.
