15400 coming in hot!

Hey Guys,

I decided to pull the trigger on a new RO 15400, silver dial. I've been looking for a while and was pretty torn between the blue and silver dial versions. The blue was much darker in person than I had initially expected (had to use a rose gold blue dial for reference as a SS blue dial was not in stock at the boutique). Kind of weird, but I feel like most of the blue dial pictures shown online are taken in a setting where the light reflects the dial just right giving it that lighter color that I thought I wanted. Regardless, I'm really happy with where I landed.

I also ordered a 1.5 sized link to get the perfect fit. It was a must coming from the precision fitting of the glidelock clasp. Here are the pics. Small and new collection, but growing.

PS- My username is meant to be comedic in nature. Just wanted to get ahead of that, lol.

So I've never measured, but I can do that and get back to you. I'd consider myself to have thicker than normal hands, wrists etc. The smaller faces just didn't look right on me.

Congrats and great choice. I shared your thinking in that the blue dial was just too dark unless the light hits it just right.

Congrats! I too love (and chose) the white dial. It looks so clean and really pops on the wrist
