Pic of a diver and a 15400?

I am looking at my next move and as a lot of you can't take the diver out of my mind, just not sure with the size, anyone has a side by side witn a 15400 or an Exp 2 with a diver?

Tks
Simon

Nice. But from the pix, the diver looks a lot bigger than the 15400

The Diver needs to be tried on to get a perspective of size. Does not wear as big as it looks in pics.
2 great choices!

If you're in Houston, there is one out by Clear Lake, cannot remember their name. Check the AP site for dealers. There is only one in Houston area--overpriced and rude, but you can try on.

Both amazing but the Diver looks incredible! I think that pair would cover all my watch needs for the rest of my days (but probably black / black).

Nice picture. One looks like military duty the other very classy.
Staring to really like the simplicity of the 15400.

Divers a bit thicker but if you can wear one you can easily wear the other. 44mm Novelties might be a different story but not the 42mm ROOs.

The other question I have is what about the strap size, when would you need the XS to play it safe?

In my experience, anything less than 7" will probably require the XS or a combination of the XS and regular.

Thanks man I am about 6.5 and honestly I was not even thinking about that being an issue.

So to order the strap is it a big deal?

Nope. Just call up Clearwater/Boutique/AD and place your order. It's $183 plus shipping.
