15720ST bulk
Went to an AP boutique today to pick up a new strap and decided to try the ROO diver. That thing is big & bulky! I’m no stranger to large watches as I had a few Panerai, including 47mm, in my collection of the years, but this was something else. Angular case design and the thickness of the piece makes it wear much larger than 42mm on my 7” wrist. At least I know that it’s not for me…my wallet will thank me for it :-)

It’s no shrinking violet for sure, however I’m happy with how it wears on my small 6.25-5” wrist

My casual dress sense was a big factor in deciding to pull the trigger on the diver over a 15550/10 RO as my first AP.
Had I wore mostly smart/business attire then I would likely have done the opposite. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I enjoy the fit of the diver, but ymmv. Did you like the fit of anything in the ROO line?

That said, it doesn't wear materially bigger than my 44mm PAM351. Smaller than a 47mm PAM for sure. |
