I'm still on the fence about the seconds sub-dial being smaller, I think it should have been nicer to keep all sub-dials the same size for symmetry.

I like the idea of having larger and easier to read chronograph dials. I liked seeing the numerals on the seconds hands though.. Guess you cannot have both.
The date window being a little off center at the time marker does not bother me and I did not even notice it but i guess others have issue with that. |

100% agree. And they even moved the date window... even that not in centre of 4 and 5 anymore... not at all impressed with he new ROCs. Prefer the old ones

I really like the new grey/blue royal oak chrono color combo. Titanium is great too.. but 41K is too much of a premium otherwise would be on my list.

And I just meant that it's Pt too, not JUST Ti as you implied. I'm not saying it's justified. |

Can someone post some pictures of the ROC black dial with silver sub dials?

I actually don't like any of these new 41mm chronographs. I feel they lack the timeless look, elegance, and sophistication of the original line. The contrasting sub-dials make them look too sporty which isn't what it's about on this watch. My next watch was going to be a steel or gold 41mm ROC... anyone know if they are still continuing production of the original line? Hopefully these aren't meant to be the replacements...

Looks good, but I still prefer the RO like 15202 Jumbo over the ROC. Maybe if they rid the date window.

I would actually consider one if it had see through back, even if it's not inhouse who cares, make it look great and show it. I kinda like the ti and pt but 40k they must be nuts for a little pt

I have no clue why they refuse to put a clear caseback on these. Even on the 42mm they started doing it now.

Because its not an in-house movement at all.

So they should stop being cheap and make one. Take the 15400 movement and put a chrono on it.
They take the 15202 movement and dump every complication on it for all their other watches. They might as well do the same for the 15400. |

I've told AP many times and called them out on my articles, when are you releasing an in-house chrono for your entry level models? Even Frederique Constant and Alpina have their own in-house.

The in house chrono is shamefully late. Still I love AP. They do so many other things right that others do wrong
