Congrats! Fits you like a glove. Out of curiosity, what’s your wrist size?

I had a 15300 and it looked terrible on my 16cm wrist with the massive overhang. 15450 and 15550 are MILES better in terms of overall fit and don’t regret that switch at all..

15300:


15450:
Appreciate these pics. Was comparing some lug to lug ratios last night and I've never worn any watch larger than 47.6 lug to lug (DJ41). Seeing how the 15300 is 49.4 lug to lug it will definitely be swimming over my wrist haha.

You know I've never actually measured my wrist size so I'll do it later today and get back to you. I've always assumed it was around ~6" but will get a more accurate measurement later today.

That definitely looks like the fit is spot on. I think people got use to oversized faces for a while, but feel like the regression back to the mean has happened in the last ~5 years.

Congrats, it looks great!

I had a sizing issue with my 15400 and, eventually, reached out to AP Clearwater and purchased a 1.5 (1.25) link. Made a world of a difference. Very comfortable

My wrist is more like a 6.4" vs the 6.1" I said in the first post. This is with the paper and ruler method, palm facing up.

Interesting, how big are each of the smaller size links not connecting to the clasp? If I take out 2 links it's too tight so I put 1 link back in and it is way more comfortable.. just a TINY bit looser than I would like it to be, but it's not a huge deal. When it gets hot out again it'll fit like a glove I'm sure.

Also not sure if anybody has the answer to this question but if I wanted a blue dial for my watch, would AP clearwater swap dials for me if I sent it out to them?

If so, does anybody know how much they charge to purchase and swap dials?
