If only keep one AP, 15300 white or 15400 blue ?

Although they are not on the same price level but I'd like to know your choice on it for my reference.

15400 blue beyond a shadow of a doubt.

Depending on the size of your wrist. I find classic RO with 36mm, 39mm and 41mm are the appropriate size for most people. I have considered the ROO many times and did not jump on it due to the thickness and larger diameter of ROO.

Personally 15300, size is better suited for a smaller wrist

Blue 15400. But if the 300 is blue or black I’d keep that

The 15300 keeps the dimensions of the original RO and, in my opinion, is aesthetically more balanced than the 15400.

I prefer the 15300, but I don’t like the white dial on that watch. So 15400 blue for me. Strange enough, on the 15202, I do like the white dial.

Why I asked is because 15300 with AP logo in better size and location and "while/silver" RO is discontinued after 15500. But 15400 blue is rare, beautiful blue color and with better looking 3120 cal compared to 15500 IMO. If you only can keep one of them, your choice is which one ? and will not regret ? Thanks.

That’s subjective, as is your question of which to keep. Depends on your preferences and your collection.

The white/silver 15450 is still available, and AP could always come out with a white/silver 15500 later if there is a demand for it.

15400 if it fit my wrist, but given my wrist size, 15300 would have to be it.

Yes, it's a dark navy colour, quite like black.

That’s how different they are; left one is 15300, more like grey; and right one is 15400 of course, more like electric blue.
