Royal Oak 15450

For what it is worth I picked up the 15450 white dial this year and it is perfect for me. The age old question is, why is the lume so bad on these watches?

As for the mustached man, it’s not ANY moustached man and there is sentiment behind it, but I’m sure I won’t be there only one to spot the undertone.

Aren't they over MSRP on the used market? Who cares what some people think or say about watches they do not own.

Fair comment, but lots of people do care (rightly or wrongly) and I thought I may be able to ‘help a couple of people over the line’.

Used prices have risen significantly over the past 12 months, especially the blue dial. Think it’s just catching up with the rest of the market.

I wouldn't get too hung up on size, and I would imagine most people here just care about a good watch that fits.

Your beef is probably more with AP itself. I recall reading threads that SA's would state the 450 to be a ladies' model, and I think it used to be featured similarly on the website. Apologizes if my memory does not serve right.
