15300 help
Hi all,
I been viewing the site for a while now and would like some help with the 15300. The RO is my ultimate grail and whilst I don't have the ability to stretch to the 15202 I have narrowed to the 15300. Recently I almost pulled the trigger on the black faced 15400, but opted instead for the GP Laureato 225 with the blue face as the 15400 just didn't feel right on my wrist - strangely the GP seemed smaller, even though both are rated 41mm. With this in mind I feel that looking at the 15300 may be the more viable option as most owners detail that this piece wears bigger on the wrist that the dimensions would suggest. With this in mind does anyone have the lug width and lug to lug dimensions of this piece? Thanks in advance for any help. |

Sorry...I don't have the measurements. However, wrist size and shape really determines fit.
See my 15300 on a relatively flat 6.5" wrist...I love it! ![]() |

If the 400 was too big the 300 should be fine.

400 may seem too big at first. Once it's fitted it's much better. My wrist is under 6.5 and doesn't look too bad

The 15300 wears much smaller than the 15400.
Both on my 6.75" wrist for comparison: My old 15300 ![]() My current 15400 |

15300 feels similar in size to a Sub on the wrist. Perfect size and bracelet is sublime.

The proportions of the RO are IMHO nicer at 39mm than 41, wether the 15300 or 15202, except if you have exceptionally small wrists you should be fine with one.
