AP no doubt. Very beautiful 39mm watch and price may go the way of the Nautilus..

It depends very much on the AP conditions. "Good" conditions don't mean anything on a watch that must retain all its straight lines and defined edges.

Really need pics...

If they are in the same price bracket then one is either over priced and the other under, because where I come from the AP would be twice the price. To answer the question AP every day and twice in Sundays

Interesting because in the states, assuming both in excellent condition, a full set 16520 is pushing mid 20s and the steel jumbo is about the same.

AP 15202 gets my vote. I prefer the newer Daytona C.

Many thanks for everyone ,

I see a majority going for the AP in a Rolex forum, that must mean something...

Today i tried it on my wrist, it is a pity I can’t attach a picture. It is stunning, the bracelet and the links are absolutely fantastic.

One thing though, the ultra thin isn’t than thin after all,

I am going for it, I’ll attach a picture when a get, I promise.

Thanks again folks.
