Hmmm....two in a week. Highly unusual and yes I know an AD or five...never heard of two 15202's at same US AD in same week--did you see them?

How many more 'people ahead' until yours and which AP's do you currently wear?


For OP - HUGE congrats and enjoy that AP beauty.

awesome - the best AP for me and a true classsic!

Worth your wait and effort. Looks awesome. Enjoy!

Thank you! My wrist is small, just under 6 1/4 inches. As a comparison, I think a 15400 is just slightly too big.

After effectively being told I couldn't have my long awaited 15202st by my AD,  with  whom I was next on list to be recipient...  (due to AP pulling supply and going boutique only with the model)

My heart and hopes both sank....

A few months later however...AP UK called me....


The new RRP was in force (post brexit UK adjusted 15% price increase, bringing us inline with Europe etc).   Which stung a little, as I had originally fixed a price with a down payment, rather than paid a deposit on Landing price...

However, the reality is, that's the price now! 

And so i got one...

Am I now happy?  

YES....

Very...


I REALLY do think its perfect in so many ways.... I love it.


I got some goodies too: A very handsome royal oak tapisserie style pen and travel case

It looks really good on you, did you deal with Daniel?

Many thanks for the reply. As I expected your wrist is the same size as mine. Currently torn between the 5711 and the jumbo. Only had a chance to try on a rose gold version which of course felt a little heavy. Lugs on the 5711 slightly more forgiving for the smaller wrist size but I prefer the look of the jumbo.

Hard choice for sure - 2 iconic designs. Like you, I also prefer the look of the Jumbo slightly. For everyday wear, the 5711 may be the better choice because it features a quickset date.

Hope to see an incoming thread soon, whatever you decide

For everyday wear, you don't really need a quick set date!!

Anyway, the 15202 isn't that arduous to set, via the 10-2 rocking method

Congrats

You don't even have to go from 10 to 2.
