15202BA Blue Dial or 15500or

Why is it impossible to find a BRAND NEW 15202BA Blue dial anywhere ughhhh ...
Even preowned is very difficult to find.
Found only one but can’t wrap my head over buying preowned from a grey dealer... And it’s over retail! Would you say the 15500or is a good alternative? (Ignore that they are 2 different golds..)

Both look stunning, but I would opt for the 15202BA if I were you. It's a better contrast against your skin tone, and really "pops" as a result.

BA for sure. Never been a fan of rose gold myself. And AP is discontinuing all yellow gold watches it seems so that would be a keeper.

Not too many Baracus floating around as opposed to the OR.

I had a similar shocked feeling when I saw a grey selling a DJ41 for £2K over retail!

Usually I’m not a fan of yellow gold, but this watch looks stunningly good. More importantly, it looks great on your wrist! Congrats!

Awesome piece!! Love the YG. It's always best to go with what you truly want ... in this hobby, settling never works out IMO.
