Need help deciding on my 2nd AP

Hey everyone. Hope your all well.

I already have a 15500 in black and love it. I’m toying with what should be my second. I think a 15202 is out of the question for now.

Does anyone have any idea or advice. I have a few Rolexes at the moment.

Thanks in advance.

An offshore of some variety - you clearly have large wrists or like big watches owning a 15500 and you already have a RO, so I’d skip an ROC to be honest.

The 26331 seemed natural progression I guess without trying it I am just not sure.

ROO - they are big and again wish I could try a few and decide as photos I’m sure don’t do some justice compared to on the wrist.

Would really love the 15202 but with just one watch purchased and it being steel sports I just know it’s not possible. I’m even embarrassed to ask the AD as they will put me into a category of just wanting it due to hype. In fact the proportion for me is perfect and just a shame it is hyped!

Thanks for your answers too:)

42mm ROO on rubber makes for a cool and varied pair.

Since you have 15500 and rolexes chances are you have a lot of steel bracelet watches, so why not go rubber? I like this one below as its blue and has some 44mm tweaks that other 42mm ROO don’t like the square buttons.

This. Beautiful piece. You need to try it on to understand. It’s amazing in person.

If you have big wrist, why not have a look on the offshore full ceramic 44mm with blue hands. Looks great irl.

Mate, I too have a black 15500 and i absolutely love it. 15202 aside, I think a 26480ti (as a couple of posters have mentioned above) would be a great option. I haven't seen one in person, but from videos it looks incredible

I think ROO (26480TI.OO.A027CA.01) would be a good idea too.

This model is available in the grey market at a the same price with msrp. Actually you can save the sale tax too and don't have to wait in line at ADs.

ROO always come with bigger size than regular RO, sometimes I want one too, but I afraid that it will be too big for my 6.5" wrist.

26331. That would be the natural progression.

Don’t get another RO change it up and get an ROO 44. One for work and one for weekends. They make a perfect pair!

Yes! An Offshore is a really nice change of pace.
