Tried the Hulk the other day.
Then it got me thinking how the 15300ST will look like on my wrist.

Opinions anyone? No Ap Boutique / AD in my area at all.

kilyung · 22 January 2013, 02:24 AM

Two very different watches. Tough to tell... You really have to try it on.

Submarino · 22 January 2013, 03:31 AM

Fits very different than a SubC as it is way thinner and less chunky. It is a very comfortable watch for every day wear.

tifosi · 22 January 2013, 04:04 AM

The Sub fits you nicely. Looks similar to the way the Sub-C fits me. I say 15400 cause that is what I prefer.

JorgeB · 22 January 2013, 04:25 AM

I tried the 15300 the other day and I own a SubC, i felt the AP wore a little smaller than the submariner. It looked great.

Mike, do we share similar wrist size?
I dont have a measuring tape at home atm ( dont ask why ) , but from wrist shots which you have uploaded in other threads .e.g your bee, 15300ST ,etc etc, i deduce that its not that far off.

Am i right? haha

tad much of difference ?
I was offered a mint 15400 ST, so its hard to consider which model.

Still 6 more months before i head back to Singapore.

tifosi · 22 January 2013, 04:33 AM

I tried both the 15300 and the 15400 on in the same AD visit. The 15300 did not look bad. Not by a long shot. But since I would prefer to wear the AP as more of a sports watch, I liked the bigger look. Just the reasoning in my head. You opinion may vary.

I'll be wearing it for any occasion.
It looks great in jeans and, even better under a suit. no flaw there.

Sports-wise, I'll hunt a FC diver within the years to come. Some people may not find it reasonable to purchase it at a premium without any chrono features. ( Just my 2cents). As such, I'll take my time for the time being and appreciate the 15300ST.

How would the "Hulk" have you think of the RO 15300?

thomaspp · 22 January 2013, 08:03 AM

Really different watches those two. This might help your thought process (15400 pictured below.).

thomaspp · 22 January 2013, 08:12 AM

and these..

well it could have been any timepiece really.
The hulk was 41mm.. which was 2mm larger than the 15300ST.

I happened to have this picture in my album and decided to upload it for some opinions.

If i had taken a wrist pic of my GMT IIC, you'd replace the word hulk with GMTIIC haha.

would it hurt to ask for a similar wrist shot to mine?

mmmm 15400.

bayerische · 22 January 2013, 07:05 PM

The Hulk is 40mm.

The 15300 is indeed 39mm, but it wears bigger, due to it's length.

bofon13 · 22 January 2013, 08:35 PM

Maybe this will help. ;)

Can't ever go wrong with a 15300

Le Chef · 23 January 2013, 05:47 AM

I love my 15300 and have a 7 3/4" wrist. I have no desire or interest to swap it for a 15400. The 15300 wears big enough for me.
