Thank you! I have been wanting to add the AP for over 10 years. I actually had the two-tone zen dial prior to this one. I love this latest iteration of the APRO, especially the grande tapisserie dial, the thicker octagonal hands and hour markers, the date background that matches the dial, the dropping of the "AUTOMATIC," and the new wider movement. I think François-Henry Bennahmias and his team have absolutely perfected the RO for modern times!

Awesome collection How do you find the size of the new AP on your wrist? Wrist size and wrist shot? How does it compare to your other watches ? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

On my 7-inch wrist, the 15500 fits perfectly, in my opinion. I think it could look great for 6-inch to 8-inch wrists. The integrated bracelet and octagonal bezel make the 41mm wear more like a 42mm. The height of about 10mm makes the proportions perfect, in my view. The APRO bracelet and double-butterfly clasp make it wear very comfortably. The weight distribution across the case, bracelet and clasp is also very comfortable. Altogether, it is ergonomic, pleasing to the eye, and has maximum wrist presence without being too large. It is breathtaking every time I check it for the time or just enjoy how the light plays off the perfect beveling of each bracelet link. Here's a wrist shot. I would say it wears about only a little smaller than my Luminor, a little larger than my Daytona, and about the same as my Moonwatch. Watches are to be enjoyed and I sure am enjoying mine. I hope all of you will wear and enjoy yours in good health!

Congratulations.
Do take more pictures of the 15500 as the Black dial looks great in brighter light/outside. |
