Huge congrats to him! Did he have a code prior to getting the star wheel?

Handled one for the first time this week at a watch event. I was very impressed with it. Might have to put it on my wishlist.

Been almost a year trying to chase down one of these 26615ti to finally try on and decide vs a 15202bc. Must say, was quite underwhelmed in person despite the mesmerizing dial, now the search for the 15202bc begins.

Looks absolutely incredible!
Underwhelming bc titanium/ weight? Overall package? Would be curious to hear more thoughts. Thx and good luck

I've only seen pictures of the 26615Ti, which I thought were amazing. Curious why you found it underwhelming?

Much like you, I was blown away in pictures, couldn't wait to try it on in person and perhaps that initially set the bar too high. Albeit I had high expectations when I first tried a 15202BC and was utterly mesmerized seeing it, was also the first time I saw a WG AP - NO ONE does brushed WG like AP does. All of this is personally subjective and the first time I have seen a titanium bracelet but it isn't for me. One, the metal is a darker hue to the point it looks like a dirty iteration of SS, IMO it loses a bit of that allure of a brighter metal and comes no where even remotely close to the hue of WG or even SS for that matter. When the sun and light hits WG, it is truly remarkable how it glistens off the bracelet, you tend to lose that effect here with ti. The darker color of the metal does not aesthetically align with the salmon color dial. In addition, the bracelet was incredibly light to the point it was too light, I know some prefer this but to me, it made the watch feel cheap, akin to a plastic feeling. Much prefer a watch to have weight and substance to it, this felt more like a toy watch on the wrist, my SS 26240 I wore felt 4x heavier and more reassuring on the wrist. Lastly, the 41mm is too big for my wrist, the 39mm is the perfect size for me. Again, all personal preference, if they made the watch in a WG case it would be a homerun for me given how incredible the dial is but for ~$160k there are much better options, which will make the decision to hunt a 15202BC that much easier now. Just my .02

Ya I haven’t seen white gold before, and I have requested one so that is very reassuring for me. Thx a lot for your feedback.

I'm the opposite way. I prefer the dial of the 15202BC, so it would be an easy choice if I'm willing to go grey (which I'm not unfortunately!)
