So I have another piece coming in. Should be here tomorrow or Monday.

This is a piece that I really did not understand the price premium but one day it just hit me. Now I get why it is so special. Again the devil is in the details as with all finer things in life.

It is a 15XXX. Heart is pounding.

Fantastic! Look forward to the mystery watch (202).

yjfang · 17 July 2015, 03:44 AM

If I could only wear that 44MM RG. That's one of THE best.

if only they made it in 42, but I might get used to it as many owners have smaller wrists than me and it's fine, I have 6.9 many with 6.5 pull it off, Paul for example, heard the short strap changes it all, fail to see how the strap will make it look more ok on a smaller wrist, does anyone have pics of it on a regular strap and the small one? would be nice to see as I quite don't get it

yjfang · 17 July 2015, 08:28 AM

I have a 7.5" wrist and have no problem wearing the larger 44MM but I just don't like it. I had the SS 44MM version before and never got used to the bulk. I can only imagine how much "heavier" it will feel on my wrist with RG. I recently picked up the 42MM ROO black/red and it is borderline top heavy, noticeably taller, and not as balanced as compared to the Ceramic Diver.

Having said all that, I can stare at the 44MM RG all day.

tcheeco · 18 July 2015, 02:53 AM

yjfang · 18 July 2015, 03:14 AM

Well...here's it is ladies and gentlemen! My very own 15202, late H series with the darker blue dial and newer style bracelet. This is a wrist shot on my 7.5" wrist. I absolutely love it (much more than when I had the 15400 black dial). It has a sleek profile but a great wrist presence and is super comfortable.

When compared to my Ceramic Diver and ROO black/red, it is amazing how much the ROO departs from the original RO. Yes they may share similar lines but the dimensions are WAY different and thus feel so different on the wrist.

Two words - the 15202 is PURE ELEGANCE!

texex91 · 18 July 2015, 03:17 AM

Looks great

ap1 · 18 July 2015, 03:22 AM

love it, nice pick up. you needed a bit of elegance to match those other beasts, lol

yjfang · 18 July 2015, 03:27 AM

Thanks to you Paul and gang that went on that AP trip and got my juices flowing again.

Between the 15202, CE Diver, and ROO black / red, I think I have a pretty well rounded AP collection on the lower end.
