Ditto here, Aquanaut is not a investment grade watch, very few modern Pateks are.

And more people will recognise the RO than the Aquanaut, if you care that sort of things.

My main concern on the ROC is the size of my wrist...I've got a 6.5" wrist (flat at that) so I sort of worry that it will look too big on me. I've tried on a 15400 and it seemed OK so maybe not a big concern.
I have a 6.5" wrist and had the 39mm ROC and it fit perfectly. 41mm ROC will wear bigger but should be okay as well. I recently sold my ROC for the 15202 and although I miss the ROC I have no regrets at all. The 15202 is the first watch I owned without a second hand and I can say that I do not miss it at all. Like others have said I have come to appreciate the 2 hand design of the 15202.

Can't go wrong with any of the 3 and my choice would be 15202, ROC, aquanaut as well.

You decide


But I personally don't like the ROC:( Go 15300/15202 if you want the AP
I love them both

Wow...very nice. I'm leaning towards the 15202 right now but a tough decision for sure.

Honestly,

Both, I have a Royal Oak, and hope to pick up a 5167 sometime in the future.
