15720CN - opinions requested

Hi All - I’ve had my eye on the 15720CN (discontinued white gold diver limited to 300 pieces) for the last couple of years. Since I have a few integrated bracelet watches, I’m considering selling/trading out of my 4520V and white gold YM42 226659 to cover the cost of this piece. I would come out on top by about 10k. I have a wrist that is about 7.75 inches so I think I pull the heft off ok. Curious if anyone has hands on experience with this one. The secondary market has come down a good bit and seems like a reasonable time to try one out. Thanks!

Don't own one, but I liked it when I tried one in a boutique (not enough to buy at MSRP though). It's heavy, so while no-one else will notice it's WG, you'll be constantly reminded. Great deal at grey prices, I think.

it's super heavy. if you can carry it I think it's a great reference especially for the people that know it's limited.

It's heavy, if you wear your watch snug you can pull it off without an issue.
I like to wear my watches a little on the loose side and it just flopped around unless it was snug when I wore one. My friend who's an AP nut ended up selling it as he had the same issue I had. He sold it to a mutual friend who has huge wrists and wears his watches tight, he says he likes it, doesn't love it but likes it enough to keep it

I don't have any feedback on wearing one...but as mentioned, the grey prices on these right now are pretty damn low compared to MSRP. I would make sure you shop around.

Maybe you should consider going for the ceramic diver (15707.ce) instead, if the weight of the WG can cause some potential discomfort or imbalance on the 15720.cn
