*** another 15400 incoming! ***

Hi all,

Just wanted to share. After a few years of being a Panerai only kinda guy, the Royal Oak caught my eye and I just could not stop thinking about it. On a recent trip to Naples, FL, I tried it on for just the second time and had to pull the trigger. Big thanks to Evan at Exquisite Timepieces. Every color dial is amazing, but I went with the silver - so mesmerizing. Ordered fresh and shipped to me - just sized it myself, 2 links out, too loose. 3 links out, slightly tight. Might have to order that 1.5 link. Anyway, couldn't be happier!

Awesome choice. I think the white/silver is the best of 15400 options.

Thanks everyone! This AP sub forum is the place to be!

The watch is beautiful enough in indoor lighting, but I took it for a drive out in natural light for the first time this morning... Maaaaaan, the way it catches and reflects light, the way the dial sorta glows, gorgeous!

Dunno how often I'll wear it since I dress like a bum most of the time though....
