I decided to pull the trigger on this one. I was a bit hesitant on the 38mm case size, but honestly it’s perfect and does seem to wear a bit larger than assumed. For reference, I have a 6.5” wrist size so I can understand how this size isn’t for everyone.

What I know already is the Daytona is going to be on the winder a lot more now :-)

Nice choice.

Congrats man! I love mine

I am loving this watch. Nearly a 7 1/4" wrist for me and I still think I would go with this over the 41. Great choice. Great watch.

I have the 41 with the reverse dial, and am seriously considering putting my name down for the one you have as it is quite an attractive piece. Congrats!

Beautiful. Congrats!

chiscott_29 · 31 January 2020, 12:54 AM

Thanks All!

I knew this well before I bought the watch, but I still am a bit stuck on the placement of the date window. I don't mind that it is between the 4 and 5 markers, but does anybody know why it is not centered between these markers??

That's the part that distracts me...it almost seems like it was just haphazardly put there and I cannot think of any rationale as to why it is where it is. Does anybody have any insight?

Looks great! Lets see some more pics especially comparing to the daytona!!

I remember reading somewhere that it is because they increased the size of the sub-dials at 3 and 9 o'clock and therefore the date window got pushed to this off-centre position...

These are just quick and dirty. Make no mistake I love both, but the AP just might eek out a head-to-head battle.

the AP looks 10x better than the Daytona, which is a pretty boring dial tbh

ap1 · 2 February 2020, 02:42 PM

Awesome. Do you have all links in and it’s a little large?

Funny, I was thinking just the opposite.

The AP definitely contains a smaller link set. I only have 1 link removed on the 26315, which I have 3 removed on my 15500.

The Daytona has 2 links removed, but there’s much more flexibility with the micro-adjusting bracelet.
