RO 37mm

Hi guys,

I've been waiting to get RO 37mm RG (15451or) for my wife, last night my AD texted me that he has 37mm SS (15451st) and 34mm SS

Should i take this 37mm SS or just wait for the RG?

need some advise

I have 15500OR with full bracelet and love it so much.

If your wife wants full rose gold, she will not satisfy with SS.

Or you can take SS now and after you get Rose gold you can sell SS later at a profit if they allow you to have both.

I bought 15451st blue dial for my sister, after she had it for a year, she hardly wear it because she think it was too big for her. I took over and wear it sometime now. I don't know why most people think 15451st (diamond bezel) for lady only, many Rolex for men have diamond bezel also. For me watch has no gender.

Why not ask your wife if she wants a RG or SS piece?

When it comes to bling, RG ROs are on an entirely different plane vs SS. Both great in their own way, but very different watches IMO.

Normally RG is easier to obtain than SS. Are you supposed to be the first person in line for the next available? Do your boutique know approximate time line?

Did your wife try both 37mm and 34mm? What wrist size is your wife? Sometime 37mm might be too big for women wrist.

Congrats. I’d keep both for the time being.

My partner had the 15454 and while it’s in incredible watch, she hated the weight of it

Congrats! I think that’s a killer combo. What country is this?

My 15500 has the ruthenium grey dial
