Incoming!
To say that I’m over the moon would be an understatement. After several years and visits to 4 boutiques, she’s finally mine. This thing is a work of art!

Drove to NYC on Friday to have it sized. Let the honeymoon begin!

Stunning watch, this dial colour or blue would be my choice.

Big congrats on your gorgeous timepiece!

It looks great on your wrist.

How many links did you take out and how big is your wrist?

I have 15500OR with rose gold bracelet, I had to take out 4 links also, so we have just about the same size wrist.

On AP RO 37mm, it is perfect with full links.

I always thought that I have 6.5"-6.6" wrist but the dealer said 37mm fit 6.75" wrist, so I must have 6.75" wrist.

Thanks!

I tried on the 37 and it was too small on me. Post a photo of that OR!

Congrats!

Just goes to show how wrist measurements don't tell the full story. My wrist is 6.4" and it was shipped to me with 3 links out. That was a bit loose, so I had a 4th taken out. It fit on the snug side, but bordered on too snug if my wrist swelled at all with heat. I since ordered a 1.5 link, so now it has the equivalent of 3.5 links removed, and it fits great now.
