Thank you!! Quote:
Thanks! I never got the chance of seeing this dial in person before ordering, but I’m so happy that I did go for this color. I love it, it’s the perfect tone so not too dark or too light. It just looks so great!! |

I got back from the road trip this friday and today I finally had some time to take some more photos of the watch. After a few more days with the watch I couldn't be happier with it, the finish is incredible [even after the few tiny scuffs I've put on the bracelet]. Like I said previously, at times it feels kinda tight but I don't think it's worth getting the 1.5 link since it feels like a great fit most of the time. And I can just order the link anytime in the future anyways so I'll just wait for now. Anyways, as promised, here are some more photos:

I love my blue dial 450 but have to admit that ruthenium looks awesome.

Thank you!! It’s hard to photograph, but I think the third to last photo shows the color closest to what it looks like in person. Quote:
Thanks!! I definitely agree with you, this watch is awesome. |

Thanks! I think maybe it was that the weather in LA and other places I visited before I got back to SF was much warmer, so maybe that made the watch feel a little tight. As it is right now I can barely fit the tip of my index finger underneath, which I think is tight enough where it won’t be moving around a ton but loose enough to not be completely unmovable. So like I said, it was probably the weather of the first two days or so, it feels much better now! |

That watch is stunning! and it looks like a perfect fit for your wrist size. I am waiting for mine to arrive from the boutique. I chose the blue dial. However, that slate dial is incredible. Enjoy your beautiful watch. Best |

Thank you! I‘ve definitely been enjoying it so far, never saw the ruthenium dial before getting it but I’m super happy with my choice. I still haven’t seen the blue in person, but from the photos online it also looks like a fantastic choice. It’ll be here before you know it, feels like yesterday when I had just ordered it and was months away from arriving hahaha |

Beautiful watch - I think all the Royal Oak models wear larger and would definitely look at the 37mm.

Definitely wears larger than the size would suggest! When trying to decide what to buy I tried on a ton of watches, as an example the Aquanaut and the Daytona are two that I really liked the size of, they both seemed to fit very well on my wrist. While the 15400 is technically closer in size to those, it looked WAY larger. But the 15450 looks much closer in size, I really like how it fits. |

The AP Boutique sent me a black polo shirt just like that, along with a white golf hat, back in March or April while I was waiting for my Jumbo.
And I did also get a traveling case this week (along with the new catalog), but it's one of the cheaper golf club head type, not the nicer brown leather(?) boxes. But it will do. |
