Congrats. Fellow Aussie here waiting for the exact same watch from Singapore Boutique; planning to do the same, i.e. flying to Singapore to pick it up and have the exact same wrist size -16cm. The only exception being the boutique quoted a +2 years wait time and not taking deposit since no actual allocation available yet. lol

Btw, do you perhaps have prior purchase history?

Either way,, wear it in good health!

I was quoted 1 year+, was a bit surprised when got their call. They took 50% deposit when I ordered, so they were pretty sure they can give me one.

@Mike_Jab you're seriously annoying dude - what others prefer and choose to wear be it size wise, design or color, is not your concern if not asked. 90% of your comments criticizing fellow members choices of wearing 37mm RO. Get over it.


@halfcarrot Well done, great choice and worth the hassle. Actually it was my preferred choice over the 15500 but couldn't pass on such an opportunity. Wear it in good health.

Very nice! Those APs wear big. It looks more like a 40-41mm than a 37mm.
Hoping to get my own soon--it'll be a pre-owned 39mm and I can't wait!

Right on cue Mike. Such useful contributions to the forum. Always there to put someone down because you think the 15450 is too small.

FWIW i like the size of these 450 better than the 15400/15500. The 41 mm RO wear pretty freakin big. I’m a 225 lb dude with 7.5 inch wrist and not a “girly” sort of fella...It looks great on you!
