Royal Oak Everyday & Everywhere
Looking for some advice. I have read almost all the threads on how delicate and is this OK for everyday but am hoping to connect with those that really beat on the modern references. I have been wearing a modern GMTc everyday for about two years. From the Board Room to the Gentleman's club. Construction sites to weddings.

Can the 15400 really handle my lifestyle?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Are there any actual problems with the chronograph using a piggyback chrono vs being integrated?For instance is there any proof that they require any more service than one which is integrated?
