15450ST dimensions
Hello,
I tried on a 15450, 15202 and 15400 today and am stuck on which is the right size to opt for - though I think it should be between the 15450 and 15202 in my case. On the 15450, I felt that the dial looked small, whilst the case head seemed to fit well. May I ask if anyone knows the diameter of the 15450, 15202 and 15400 dials (as opposed to the 37mm, 39mm and 41mm of the cases) and how that compares with Rolex timepieces, such as the GMT-Master II, Day-Date 40 or others in the range, for example? Thanks |

What is your wrist size may I ask? And can you post photos of you trying them on so we can advice anythg? The 15450 has a slimmer bezel thus having a slightly bigger dial than its 37mm suggest. However, what makes it different from 15202 is the thickness. For smaller wrist 15202 might leave the lugs hanging while the 15450 might wrap better.

I have 6.5" wrists and the 15450 fits perfectly. I thought long and hard about the 15450 vs the 15202 but very glad and chose the way I did.

Isn't somebody able to measure the dial size of the 15450, and from bezel edge to bezel edge?

I think the difference in size of the dial pattern does more visually than any actual difference in dial size

The 15450 dial is 28mm
The 15300 dial is 29mm The GMT2 dial is 29mm Done with a ruler so a touch of rounding involved. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

From your pictures, I think 15202 looks good on you.
If you have a chance to buy any of them from the boutique, I think 15202 would be the best choice. |

I’d like to clarify... is that 37.5mm from the end of one bezel to the end of the other side of the watch’s bezel? Also when you mention 28mm being the dial diameter for a 15450 does that mean the extra 9-9.5 mm is accounted for by the bezel, so about 4.5 mm as the width of each side’s bezel?
