Been checking out a couple of AP and about to pull the trigger on a deal with DavidSW...

I have a small wrist 6.2" so i was wondering if i could pull of a RG RC or stick with the 15400OR?

the ad didn't have the 15400 so i can't try it on but it's 41mm and thinner so i figure it could fit me better.

Also, will i be needing to get a short strap or the regular one could work with my wrist?

or

thomaspp · 22 January 2013, 01:52 PM

I think you can certainly pull it off, but it does look a little big to me (I tend to wear smaller watches though (15400, Daytona, etc)).. And then there's the price difference, so all in all I'd probably stick with the RO. Good luck!

You'll need the short strap but it'll fit. 6.5" wrist here:

GIS8 · 22 January 2013, 02:08 PM

I prefer the second one you've linked (just by looks, havent seen either in the flesh) but the one on your wrist looks fine.

Wow Mike! Good stuff.

Rolex Freak · 22 January 2013, 02:37 PM

You can pull it off. Looks good.

1680redgilt · 22 January 2013, 02:38 PM

I'd say yes you can pull it off, but I prefer the other watch.

bayerische · 22 January 2013, 07:03 PM

I'll choose the second one. Best fit could be the 39mm RO.

I'm also cursed with slim wrists, and IMHO a watch face that is as wide as your wrists is too big.

I second this opinion...

Alvinbmx · 22 January 2013, 08:19 PM

I think it's not whether u can pull it off or not. It's more of which is more comfortable for u. To be honest, both watches are using the AP deployant clasp so its not comfortable for us people with small wrist.

travisb · 22 January 2013, 08:34 PM

You can definately pull off either one.
Short strap on the RC for sure.

I really think you should change the title of this thread - I was scared to click on it!

tinger · 22 January 2013, 11:55 PM

Try the 15450

Thanks! I do too initially but i could not find an AD to try it on. When i tried the RC, i love the size and weight of it.

Thanks, i really have to find a place to try the 15400 on especially to feel the weight

Appreciate your comment. I wear a PAM 312 which is 44 and it looks ok

I guess i could not take my mind off from the design and weight of the RC

True and i agreed. The AD i went do had the watch completely wrap so i could not get an idea to actually try it on.

If i go with the RC, for sure i will get the short strap

Thank you for the comment guys and appreciate all of your feedback especially Mike's pictures. Man the RC RG is awesome!

Beek · 23 January 2013, 04:12 AM

Interesting thread. I have a 6'' wrist and wear a PAM 292. I can just pull that off, because of it's black color which makes it appear smaller and also because of the way the strap is connected to the watchcase.

TSW · 23 January 2013, 05:38 AM

You can definately pull off either one.

15300 in RG if I were you...

I agree think this is the perfect watch for you. I can just about pull off the RG RC but my wrist is over 7 inches. Lugs should not hang over the end of your wrists or with gold esp youll look like one of those little teenage rappers, like Tinie or Tinchy.

boursachi · 23 January 2013, 07:55 AM

Mike that bezel looks like it's ceramic! enjoy

tifosi · 23 January 2013, 07:59 AM

15400OR would be my suggestion.

AshAP · 23 January 2013, 08:09 AM

As it looks too big for you right now.

Ever seen a 44mm Schumacher look too small?

Trouble15 · 23 January 2013, 08:24 AM

I think you can pull it off. That's a great looking AP!

afc1 · 23 January 2013, 02:14 PM

You can probably pull off either one but I'd go for the 41mm. It will likely be a better fit. Both are great though.

SAMLAMBO · 23 January 2013, 02:49 PM

Get the rgrc. My wrist is about 6.25" and the rgrc looks perfect on it. Better slightly bigger than smaller. Also you will fall in love with the rgrc once you own it.
