Royal Oak Silver dials

Are the Silvery/White Royal Oak dials all the same including 15202, 15300, 15400 and 15450 or are they somehow different?

Thanks.

I haven't seen a 15202 or a 15300 white/silver dial in person, but I've seen this question a few times here, and seen several pictures.

The 15300 dial is more white, the 15400 and 15450 dials are very silvery. The 15400 and 15450 dials make it a bit easier to see the fine detailing in the dials; however, I think it makes the watch a bit too monochromatic.

I know they're not all the same, can't tell you what are the differences though, it's like their blue dials, most of them are different, whereas Patek 5711, 5712 and 5980 blue dials, the blue is exactly the same

They're not the same. Can't comment on the 15202 white but 15300 is mostly white with silver/gray hues coming in certain lighting. I believe when AP switched to making the tapisserie dials in house with the 15400 and the 15450 the "white" dial models became mostly silver.

300 and 202 are more a flat white, 400 is more silvery while the RG 400 is actually white.

That's the latest extra-thin, 40th anniversary model, the old Jumbo came in white.

Thanks to all who have responded.

Leaning toward 15450 since I have a smallish wrist and suspect I would prefer a more silvery white vs white dial with the Royal Oak SS however if I can only have one AP a blue 15202 is tough to pass up.

Little dilemma since I have a PP 5726 black dial on bracelet and PP 5167R.

I am looking to for now add 2 more watches a blue dial and a white/whitish dial.

Leaning toward 15202 blue and PP 5711 white
