Different 15500ST "AP" Logos

[Spin27]

A quick search on C24 shows just about all (if not all) 15400s have the white line. My guess is a few of the first 15500s off the line were furnished with the remaining 15400 logos.

Nice catch on the 15400.

This is likely not the case. The 15400 AP logo is smaller than the 15500. The 15202, however, appears to be the same size. Perhaps the carryover is with respect to the 15202 to the 15500. In any event, this is an inconsistency, which I find bizarre given the AP brand name and associated cost for the RO.

For those who want the logo without the white line, I wonder if AP would consider this a "defect" and swap it out at no charge to the owner.

Don’t worry….. watch how grey dealers market 15500s with the additional white line at 30% premium over normal blue dials
Seriously how can people even support greys at this point?
Water damage = patina
Broken dial = spider dial
Gap between R and APH for Daytona = APH dial
And now AP logo with additional white line = UNIQUE LIMITED EDITION BLUE DIAL 15500!
