AP15400 buy it now or wait for 2019?

My local AD can order either white or white for me without any discount. Should I wait for 2019 new line since I am going to pay MSRP?

Any suggestions??

If you want a silver 15400 I believe the boutique can get one on your wrist sooner. Serious doubts the 15400 will change for 2019.

With the hint that the new AP line will debut at SIHH 19 I doubt they coincide a RO update, plus in terms of update cycles the 15400 isn’t that old.

Life’s too short to always hold off for the next best thing! Get what you want now and if a new model is announced by the way the market is going you’ll most likely be a few quid up on your initial investment.

Maybe the inhouse ROC is ready for 19 as well as this new model, so the 400 is unlikely to change.

I don’t believe they will offer an update of RO. In situation when opponents offers wait lists for years the best way for AP is to increase their market share with current version.

The hinted 2019 new line is the replacement of the Jules Audemars line not the regular RO. Don’t wait, buy the watch now if you like it.

If that 15400 is what you want, buy it, enjoy it, and worry about it later if/when they change it.. good luck!

I wouldn't wait. It probably won't change anytime soon. And if it does change, the 15400 will likely increase in value.

if anything changes it's likely an increase in list price.
get it now before the hike!
