15202 v. 15400
I have a very small wrist (6 inches) and the subc is probably the biggest I can go. I've tried on the diver a few times and it hangs off both sides of my wrist. If I wanted to buy a royal oak, would the 15400 work or does it wear significantly bigger than the subc? Is the 15202 the only 39mm royal oak? AP's website indicates that the only 15202 made is the ultra thin with a blue dial. Does AP make a 39mm royal oak thats not ultra thin and has either a black or white dial? What would you all suggest I do if I want to get a royal oak?Also, can the SS royal oak be put into a leather strap like the gold can?
First AP thoughts
I have a DJII (116300) and want to buy an AP to compliment it. I have a very tiny wrist, about 6.3, and I do not want the classic Royal Oak. I'm thinking about getting the new 2014 rubberclad. I think it is casual enough and different enough from the DJII that the two will compliment each other very well. Would I be able to get this with a shorter strap? When I was looking at watches, everything that came with a strap I needed to order with a short strap (IWC, JLC, etc.). Is the face of the ROO too big for my wrist even with the shorter strap?Does anyone know the approximate price on the new RC? Sellers on here are selling the older model for about $15,000. What should I expect for the new model? I called APNYC today to find out but couldn't get though. I'll stop by on Friday (probably) and try it on to see for myself. Pictures to come!
Thinking of an AP
Lately I've been looking at AP for whenever my next watch comes along. I have been looking at the 15400 and the Diver among possible candidates. The one thing that turns me a bit off of the brand is the large number of special editions and different themes like safari, vulcano etc. It all seems a bit fashion watchy. I know all about the exceptional quality and the great movements, even though some are modified. Anyway, what are your thoughts? I'm posting this here because I am pretty sure of the responses I will get on the AP forum.
how reliable is forged carbon?
hi guys:i need your inputs, I've heard that forged carbon is not as reliable as SS and will faded and scratch easily, but of course it'll hide some marks. most importantly, it's can't be fixed.is this true? what would you pick between 44mm SS or 44mm FC?thank you so much for your help and i know there are many threads cover this topic already.
The new Speedmaster Date 3210.50 arrives . . .
Well, my new Speedmaster Date 3210.50 arrived yesterday from my out-of-state AD. It's really pretty. I've got to get use to looking at the sub-dial at 9:00 o'clock for the sweeping second hand, but this watch is very cool. I sold my 36.2mm Railmaster, so now I have three Omegas (see my signature).As a point of interest, I have ordered COSC certificates, at 50 CHF per certificate, for my 36.2mm Railmaster (January), SM GMT (February) and my new 39.2mm Railmaster (March). Yesterday, I e-mailed Omega SA to order a COSC certifcate for the new Speedmaster Date and received the following: Quote:
