Here's some pictures of the AP 15300 Royal Oak I sold off a month ago. I still miss it very much, and thought it was one of the most beautiful watches to own, and a true classic, with a refined and well-executed in-house movement. The finishing and craftsmanship of this piece can only be experienced when you wear it everyday on your wrist. It definitely was a timepiece that was noticed, but it was just a little too conservative for my age. Hope you like these pictures I took in August.

If you don't like them, eat my shorts.

I'm sorry to see it go, but as long as you're smiling, it's all good

wether a cosmetic fan or not you can't deny the detail and quality, don't you just love that clasp that when opened shows the AP initials, one up on the rolex pressed /stamped steel

Great watch. Looks beautifully finished.

Tony-GB · 4 August 2008, 07:07 AM

Is the bracelet easily adjustable, like a Rolex? My wrists swell in heat & I can adjust the bracelet within seconds. Did the AP have the same adjustability?

pwcrulez · 10 September 2008, 01:37 PM

nice watch...

Adam K. · 18 February 2012, 12:42 AM

4-inch wrists?? No offense intended, but that 15300 looks huge on you.

carsebnic · 24 March 2012, 01:47 AM

I had one with the white dial. I'm currently looking for one with the black dial but that blue sure is pretty!
