AP 15450 blue or 15500 black/grey

Dear all,

Assuming my wrist fits both watches nicely, which is a better purchase in terms of maintaining market value and liquidity? Of course watch is bought with the intention to enjoy. But it's always good to know your purchase holds value.

Thanks for sharing.

Since I have 6.5" wrist I would wear the 450 Blue ... but both great pieces... but in general if you are worried about resale then 15500 Blue best choice...

Hi Kevin. Unfortunately 15500 blue is a multi year wait with no guarantee. With a deposit, I can only secure a black or grey 15500.

Which color speaks more to you?

For future value retention, it’s gotta be 15500

Haha thanks. Although 15450 is not that popular, it's blue dial still require a few years of wait...
