No RO/ROC 1.5 link available until March

Just called the AP Boutique in NYC to order a stainless steel 1.5 link to get my newly acquired ROC to fit properly. Apparently there’s no 1.5 links available worldwide until March. I looked in the classifieds section and didn’t see anything for sale either. Does anyone know about one for sale? On a positive note, I did get put on the “wish list” for a grey and blue dial 15500.

Who did you speak with? By the way I was there earlier this week and they said they wouldn't see any of the new models until June.

I don’t remember the salesman’s name, but he just took my contact info.

Sure you need a 1.5? Maybe a single link would do it. What is your wrist size? I have a 8 1/8 wrist & the 1.5 link was too much when I bought my 15400

I actually removed 2 links from the bracelet, and the fit is slightly loose for my 18 cm wrist. I was hoping to remove 2 additional links to the 12 o’clock side and add the 1.5 link to get an optimal fit. Any chance you still have the 1.5 link?

I just had, what I thought, was a 1 link removed yesterday at govberg. Band is a bit tight, realized they removed the 1.5. Not sure if I need a 1/2 link (no good for you since I can add 1.5 & remove a 1) or a full link. If a full link needed, let’s trade.
I’ll be at govberg in philly Monday afternoon 1/28

Thanks for the offer. If anyone else knows where I can find the elusive 1.5 link please let me know :)

I had to wait about 2.5 months for my 1.5 link. I think it depends on the inventory that is available near you. If there is no inventory, 2-3 months wait is what you can expect.
You may want to check with the Clearwater service center, or check with a boutique the next time you travel somewhere with AP boutiques.

AP Clearwater doesn’t have them either unfortunately. Guess I’ll keep calling around.
