Hey Everyone,
Just curious to see what you guys would choose out of these choices.
Try to factor in price differences at least a little.

The ROO models are too big for my 6.4 inch wrists so I am considering
a couple APs, a couple PPs and a Rolex.

I am loving my new 5167r, but it needs a companion.
Narrowing it down to 5 watches that excite me.
1) AP 15202OR
2) AP 25820ST
3) PP 5711 White
4) PP 5712
5) Rolex 116719

More than likely I will end up with at least two of the above, just curious what everyones choice would be.

Keep in mind I am not really looking for a balanced collection, so vote what you like best!

anothernewphone · 24 July 2016, 08:16 AM

I'd say a 5712, if ever considered, is the right choice - then a 15202.

RHIII · 24 July 2016, 08:17 AM

On that list it would be the 2 APs for me - hands down.

Easy choice for me: 15202OR all day long for me and my favorite overall watch!

But of course taste is subjective and to each his own...

Ken's beauty is my choice of those. Pair it with the Patek full gold and you have a dream bracelet pair.

yourule40 · 24 July 2016, 08:49 AM

Hands down the Rolex 116719 followed by the AP 15202OR. The others are just not aesthetically pleasing. The Rolex 116719 is one of the most beautiful watches out there.

Thanks Ken, your pictures certainly helped catapult this to the top.
Question, how well does this watch wear with more casual attire, say a polo shirt and nice shorts? Or a high end graphic tee and dress jeans?
I rarely wear a suit, and my only reservation is this watch might be
too dressy (even though its a sports watch).

Thanks Neil, I love the 5711/1r too, and could easily add to the list but have the 5167r with similar color scheme. But both are stunning!

I agree it's a beauty. Most likely will be my Rolex piece. Just a matter of when.

HL65 · 24 July 2016, 09:16 AM

It wears well casual or dress and that is cool thing about an RO. The brushed case and angles gives it sporty edge.

GB-man · 24 July 2016, 09:46 AM

I'm going RG jumbo here. 5711 and 5712 great options too. Hell I like all of them

if the budget allows though that RG jumbo is whoa

DCheeta · 24 July 2016, 10:05 AM

I say 15202OR. It sounds like you dress exactly the same way I do for the most part, and I would not hesitate to wear the 15202 on all occasions.

Robert993 · 24 July 2016, 10:35 AM

15202OR.. Or 15202ST.

Thanks Ken for the feedback. One last question on comfort.
Being all gold of course I know there is more heft, but being ultra thin, it must be one of the most comfortable ALL gold watches out there,
with only perhaps the 5711/1r being a rival (with full gold bracelet).

I like the look of the 15202OR over the 5711/1r in all gold, but I am curious which you think is more comfortable?
Also Neil feel free to chime in as I guess you have worn or owned both.
I ask this because comfort is important

Thanks Tom, I am with you... I like them all, though I probably wouldn't get both 5711 and 5712.
Also if I get the RG RO, I probably won't get the AP RO PC.

Thanks Dave, I think I am finally getting over thinking colored gold is flashy.
It can be in certain watches, but I am noticing the 5167R just is sublime in pulling it off in a sporty and also dressy way when necessary.
The 15202OR is at a whole other level with a full gold bracelet. Definitely leaning this way.

I'd go for the 5712 but I'm biased. 2nd choice overall would be the 15202.

Refresh my memory, what watches do you own currently besides the 5167r?

Thanks for the feedback, love that 5712.
AD possibly has one if I go that route.

Hey Ben,
I cashed in my Rolexes for 5167r and AP ROO Ceramic Anthracite.
ROO was too big and uncomfortable on my wrist, so I still have $35K towards something.
So only 5167R at the moment, but available funds for something special.
Loving the RG so much that 15202OR is now hot in the mix.

I agree. 15202OR will be a great pair with your 5167R. But you will still need a beater watch.

Yes, I agree... Maybe an RM 35 if I'm lucky

The 5712 is just gorgeous. I love the AP as well, but I feel the 5712 is a notch better in design and finishing.

Dolor Doc · 25 July 2016, 02:03 AM

25820st.

Set it and let your kids or grandkids adjust it next century!

Amazing complication and AP really nails it with the dial setup.

Would love to see one in person (or if anyone here has any pics!).

Good luck!

I guess you are new here to find them not'nice, you should run away fast from here as in 2 years you'll be lusting for one of these AP's or PP's

I agree, still find the PP nicer than the AP, maybe one day it will change but not for now...
