It’s 15450. I also have pics of me in the 15400 on another thread of mine. Go check it out for comparison!

Congrats, what a stellar watch. If your head doesn't fit that hat, I have a perfect hat head, I can never get my hands on one of those. :)

It’s a very nice case, but I probably won’t use it much. The watch will be on my wrist most of the time! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I always enjoy the LV boutique, similar experience happened to me once there, it was a blue dial that appeared from the back, didn't take it but glad I got to see it before making the final decision. Looks great man, Congrats!

I have one of the green travel cases. Whilst good quality it's a very odd design, as it should accommodate all AP models but its too deep and not wide enough and can only just fit a 44. Because of the depth its too big to go in a pocket, which is a big factor. The Oakley vault is much more practical, easily housing a 44 whilst fitting a small pocket. It's a pity AP didn't base their case on that - they could've even done it as an octagon shape.

If anyone is interested in a 15450st, I know of a boutique that had stock as of a week ago. Feel free to send me a PM.

Welcome to the Club!
I had the same exact experience in Vegas when I walked in ON MY BIRTHDAY. The lady asked what I was looking for and I said a Steel Blue Dial Perpetual Calendar and she said "You won't believe this, we just got one in yesterday!" I've never pulled out my credit card that fast to spend 60k. So yea, I completely understand your excitement! Congratulations! |

Was it Julie who helped you? I was shaking in excitement and that I had to charge $17K on my credit card right then and there. You have a picture of your watch? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

It has finally arrived!!! It’s more beautiful that when I first saw it (natural lighting). Can’t wait till I get the first scratch on it

Already found an imperfection. To the right of “automatic” there’s black lint or a scratch.

Already spoke to my sales person. They are expediting the service process to get it fixed. Hopefully they make it up to me by giving me a complimentary extra link. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Minus the tiny blemish, that is one beautiful watch! I love the close up pic and the white/silver dial, it just shows how detailed the dial is. I much prefer the minute markers printer on the dial rather than a minute track like on the new 15500, it just seems that this process is harder yet more detailed. Congrats
