The 38mm RO Chrono 26315ST

Has anyone received their 26315ST yet? I'm curious how it wears compared to the 15450 which I found just a bit too small for me.

Did you feel they wore small? Your pics look great, but in person, I just couldn’t get over how small it felt. Your wrist looks similar to mine.

Those are lovely pics. I'm seriously considering that watch.

However, when you take wrist shots from that close it makes the watch seem larger than it really is. Not much to do about that now, but knowing your wrist size would also help a lot.

It felt good....perhaps smaller than I'm used to because I typically wear 40mm Rolex. My wrist is 6.75

Here's a shot but further away

the dial on the ROC is smaller but its lug to lug length is longer than the daytona.

Tried on the 38mm ROC and it felt small for my 6.75” wrist. The SA says the same when I wore it. Might looks fine in the pics, but it felt small irl.

I do prefer rose gold 38mm roc than the 41mm though.

Ok so even the 38mm felt small compared to the Daytona? I like how the Daytona wears but felt the 37 15450 was to small so I guess the 38 mm 26315 will do too. And the 15400/15500 are too large.

AP is pushing me towards the expensive options of 15300/15202...

38mm ROC felt good. very similar to my Daytona. Perhaps even a little larger than Daytona in terms of chunkiness

The smallness i felt was related to the 15450.
