I finally got my Royal Oak.
I've been a long time Rolex wearer until I bought my first AP at the beginning of the year - an AP Offshore Diver 15703st. I fell in love with the case finishing, and not long after I knew I had to get my hands on a Royal Oak.
I presumed I wanted a 41mm model given how I didn't mind the size of my Offshore Diver, but when I had a chance to try on both a 41mm and 39mm, I realized I preferred the classic 39mm size for a Royal Oak. Something about it just being a more dressy piece made me prefer the smaller size. Well, I finally had an opportunity to the pull the trigger. I couldn't be happier. The bracelet is comfortable and the finishing, as everyone here knows, is second to none. It's a significant amount of money to spend on a watch, but I'm proud to own it and I look forward to creating memories with it. |

Amongst the standard ROs, nothing beats the 15300, IMHO
 Looks great on you! |

I think a 39mm RO is the sweet spot for almost every wrist. Congrats!

Congrats, 15300 is a great reference and I understand blue is more rare than the other colours.

15300 is arguably the best reference out there. (Not biased :D)

For the record @arbees319, it's a Tesla. Wish it was a Porsche!
