One thing to keep in mind: close-up wrist shots overstate the size of the watch. It's better to see a shot from 3-4 ft away, makes it easier to judge. Having said that, I do agree that some people definitely seem to like watches to wear very very large as evidenced by responses in some threads.

I find the 15400 quite big on the wrist. I would definitely buy the 15450 over the 15400 given the choice.

Good choice, although i find the 41mm suiting for me, i can see the 450 works well for you. Now you also can check out the new 38mm chrono's if you're looking to add a function to your royal oak in the future

Agree.For my taste is 15450.
Had 15400 way to big for my 6.5 wrist.15450 fits looks good.after all the only one that matters is how I like it Enjoy. |

But the 15450 wears small . Maybe the case wears like a 38/39 but the dial is so small it actualy looks smaller on my wrist then a DJ 36. Close-up its not that bad (as many pics posted here are close-up) but from a distance it totaly disappears on the/my wrist and looks like i'm wearing my wife's watch. Again, i do not like big watches, i love my 40mm daytona/explorer/14060m size but the 15450 is way to small for me and i would recommend only for guys with small<6.5 wrists I own a 15450 and a 15400 and my rule of thumb for the Royal Oak would be: <'6.5: 15450 >'6.5: 15300/15202 >'7.25: 15400 See pic below with my explorer/daytona/15450 and pay attention to the dial to see its actualy a lot smaller. |

I think in your case the width of the bracelet is what makes it seem small compared to the regular 20mm rolex oyster bracelet. Also now that a 38mm chrono is available.... 😅 |

Dont get me wrong. There is nothing wrong with the 15450 if you have small <6.5 wrists. But if larger you should look at the 15300/15202/15400/500 Dont let close-ups fool you. See my 2 pics in this thread: https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=669739 |
