15400 at NY boutique today
it's become my new obsession.and seeing it next to my ROO confirms (for me) that having both is mostly redundant.u can definitely feel the ROO on the wrist more than the 15400. had i not ever worn the ROO, the 15400 may feel heavy...but not after having just worn the ROO.the 15400 definitely blings more than the ROO...the case and bracelet have much sharper edges and brighter polishing..but very elegantly.it's definitely still a sports watch. but can take up the dress watch role very easily.which is why i think the ROO ends up being redundant.different story if it were the 15202, i'm sure...which i would consider a strictly dress watch...and therefore i could rationalize keeping the ROO around.but have models that fill that role much nicer (JLC reversos).a few shots from the boutique heading into the weekend...

Bitten by the AP bug!
Well, I thought I was done with watches for 2016 but yesterday I purchased my second AP for the year....it's a 42mm elephant and I can't wait to get it on a Horus grey camo strap - will post pics as soon as it arrives!Feeling as giddy as a schoolgirl
