15407/305 Owners wish they had the opposite?

Hey guys,

I am curious if any of you own a 15305 or 15407 and wish you had the other, in retrospect...and why? It seems like its just a matter of wrist size and both are pretty damn hard to find, and prices aren't that far apart (60s for a 305, 70s for a 407).

I am not a fan of 15400s, so I have essentially chosen the 305st route, but for the price I am about to pay, curious if any of you have any insight after living with either piece a while?

Asking now, since it seems like more people have lived with the 15407 than before...

thanks,

Nick

As a 15407 owner I have never even slightly looked longingly at a 305 :).

Beautiful pair. If you had to pick one, which would it be?

Have both, prefer the 15305or to the 154 all day. The 154 is just way too big for me.

Just 2mm makes quite a bit of difference.
