Icon20 My New White AP and Far Eastern Friend‏

From previous posts it was obvious that I really like legible, white dial timepieces. My fellow TRF'ers recommended an AP 15400 due to my larger wrist. Oscar showed up with it today at my workplace.
Wow! it really is gorgeous. My only other AP is a Volcano that I love but it's on a strap. As beautiful as the dial is I find the bracelet equally mesmerizing. Now I can fully appreciate the magic called AP.
And rather than start another Grand Seiko post I am including some pics of my previous white watch acquisition- my Snowflake, which is also a beauty.
Now my Volcano is asking for a friend, I believe he's called Panda ROO. He also mumbled something about a Singapore strap?

beautiful. Its starting to grow on me. does it wear like a ROO? It looks very big for a 41mm. even my GMT IIC doesnt generate such presence wrist-on.
