New ROC!

Went to AP Boutique yesterday to try on the 37mm Royal Oaks. Having worn the 39mm 15300 for awhile now, I thought the 37mm would feel too small. I was really surprised how well the 37mm pieces fit on my small wrist. For reference, my wrist is about 6.3-6.5 inches. The 15450 was really nice and not feminine looking per some reviews that I've read.

The 38mm ROCs fit really well. I had the 39mm ROC in the past and it was slightly too big due to the single deployant clasp being too long. I ended up getting the panda version but the grey looks way better in person than pics.

I have pretty much the same size wrist as you and I agree, the 38mm looks great. Enjoy!

Incredible photos !

That brushing looks so crisp like you could grate a fingernail against it.

Every little detail on that watch is just perfection, you’ve really captured the essence of AP DNA in those photos.
