15503 / 26239 Limited JAPAN new RO
Came across this today:
I’m loving these vivid blue colors. Too bad they are limited and only offered to the Asia market. Interesting they are in white gold though. Just wanted to share and hear what you guys think Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

15503? Wonder if this is only for this edition, rather than a new iteration of the RO. Cadence between 15300/400/500 was ~8 years iirc so this would break the pattern…

For me, the bright blue works better on the ROC then on the RO (but then I'm also not that biggest fan of the blue VC Overseas).

This blue is amazing, the usual blue is too muted. Need it on a rose gold 26239!

Don’t really like that shade of blue – it reminds me of the Overseas blue. I feel that the grayish-blue hue on the original makes it more interesting.

Could this possibly be more predictable? A new release in a new shade of blue as a limited edition. OMG!!!

One limited edition after another. Yawn. Please wake up me up when anything this company releases anymore is actually something I can buy

Lovely blue. Seems like the brighter hues as evidenced by the Tiffany crazy may be a trend we will continue to see. I was smitten by the Yves Klein dial when I sprung

This 14790 is from 1995. The Yves Klein dials are head turners. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Is the chrono 38 or 41?
Looking at the first photo it looks a bit smaller than the RO. So perhaps AP has found a way to put an in-house movement in the 38 chronograph. Date window is now centered. |

Also, the 26315 is the same height as the 26331 (11mm); the 26239 is 12.4mm and looks pretty chunky. That height in a 38mm case would look odd, IMO, more like a miniature offshore. So, it's going to be interesting to see what AP is going to do. |

But I'd love to see inhouse open case back chrono and that white/blue panda dial is perfection. |
