Places in the UK to source an AP 15300?

I've previously owned a Royal Oak diver but it was quite a large, heavy watch for me as I'm around 3 stone wet through

So I'm interested in a 15300. I don't mind used and I'm expecting this is the way to go as it's unlikely I'll find one new now from a store.

Where are the "go to" places for AP for people on here?

Thanks

I saw one the other day here in the classifieds. It was a black dial. I believe it was Davidsw who had it listed. He is a excellent seller here and 100% trustworthy. If it were me I would reach out to some trusted sellers here and see if someone can source one for you. They're not easy to find but not impossible. Have a look at the buyers and sellers "who's who" section here on the fourm and go from there. Good luck!

Also the 15400 is 41mm but does not wear big like the diver. So if you can't source a 15300 check these out, and can get one new

I would check watchrecon.com as they are now discontinued and getting harder to find. Happy hunting

Thanks but I really dislike the 15400. The dial looks too large and the watch has lost all its appeal to me in this guise. The 15300 is perfectly proportioned but the one mentioned is from a US seller so no good.

They're no longer trading I believe. It's Darren Reay who now just deals independently with clients etc.

Thanks but again, a US site.
