Let see those 15202 and 15300's!

Curious how the 8.10mm thickness vs 9.40 thickness compares. Also any comments on comfort?

kilyung · 10 May 2012, 11:24 PM

Excruciatingly... Gorgeous and comfortable.

Own...

Want...

The 15300 is chunkier and feels substantial whereas the 15202 feels like the PP 5711/1A.

texex91 · 10 May 2012, 11:37 PM

So you want a 15202 because it's smaller or more comfortable?

S`` · 10 May 2012, 11:38 PM

Mike... did you see one guy on TZ already had his hand on one new 15202... drool to the max

Paul, the 15202 movement is out of this world... and the dial (back to the old RO ways is a beaut)

Slimmer and the 2121 movement is TO DIE FOR.

Mike how does the 39mm look? Does it look as small as a PP Naut? I like a little more presence.

But crazy premium on a 15202 vs a 15300 is something to consider as well...

The 15202 can be tough to source as well

Is this the model number for new 15202??
15202ST.OO.1240ST.01

S`` · 10 May 2012, 11:50 PM

15202ST.OO.1240ST.01 is the new 15202 (blue dialed) i think

psv · 10 May 2012, 11:51 PM

Sure, the 15202 has all the hype and cult following, but the 15300 is a beautiful update with a modern and completely in-house Cal 3120 movement which affords the reference both date and second hand.

I don't think it comes with any other dial color does it?

S`` · 11 May 2012, 12:03 AM

It came in 3 dial color (the previous iteration)... if i recall a discussion on TZ, they have a black dialed one as well...

Correct, this particular re-release of the 15202 only comes with that classic blue/greyish dial. But you can bet that AP will release other dial colors as some point.

Submarino · 11 May 2012, 12:05 AM

Extremely comfortable. The thickness between the two is really visible.

was told $22,500 on SS on TZ... $300 buckeroos less than my ROC...

and probably will be more costly after discount than the ROC despite the MSRP differences

kilyung · 11 May 2012, 12:09 AM

I'll take the blue/grey... In rose gold please!

Question for you mike... incoming PM

texex91 · 11 May 2012, 03:16 AM

The more I look at that new 15202--it's really stunning. The blue on steel is eye popping.

Mike let us know what HK contact says on ETA

capote · 11 May 2012, 03:20 AM

I think the 40th anniversary 15202 is the best looking watch to come from
AP. A grail for sure. Imagine if the Rolex sub was conserved in a similar fashion. The AP15300 is great as well.

texex91 · 11 May 2012, 04:24 AM

Was just told 5 weeks to get 15202 new model.

Thomas what do you hear??

I'd say you are in luck, I have to wait another 4months until it reaches the north.

TSW · 11 May 2012, 05:05 AM

I actually prefer the 15300 if buying it as a daily driver, Sturdier bracelet and the screwed in crown.
But in a bigger collection the 15202 would be a fantastic addition.
Also love the new updated dial bringing it closer to the original 1972 model
