The AP blue dial seems to look different in every pic I have seen. Are the 15202 and the 15400 blue the same color? Thanks all.

TSW · 25 January 2013, 06:57 AM

Not the same at all.

tifosi · 25 January 2013, 06:57 AM

I didn't think so...

kilyung · 25 January 2013, 07:05 AM

Nope

The 15202 looks to me like a deep ocean blue to me. 15300 I know is has more grey in the blue, which it why it'll often look charcoal gray. Not sure if the same goes for the 15400.
I've never been able to establish a clear preference between them. Have you guys?

Strikingly close in the stock photos....but I guess not as much in real life???

The blue of the 15202 may look like this is the midday sun but in England it looks far more of a blue grey - very similar to the way it looks in all the current AP adverts "in order to break the rules....."

TSW · 31 January 2013, 07:59 AM

The 2012 15202 is much more metallic in the color,

tifosi · 31 January 2013, 08:02 AM

That second picture shows a bigger difference between the two colors.

The 15400 blue dial changes color dramatically in different light. Even in the AD environment, I noticed this on a handful of occasions. The black dial is similar... really hard to tell what it looks like from photos and adverts.

A bit different. The 15202 has more black in the mix.
