Is the blue 15400 rare?

I've not seen many on sales threads, c24, or ebay... I'm considering one to wear over my 15202 on the daily grind..

it's a boutique edition only, which AP limits as much as they can, but they pop up on the grey market all the time. Takuya, DavidSw, and others can source one for you i'm sure.

I'm assuming since it's a boutique model and a little bit "rarer" than its black and white counter parts explains why it's a few thousand dollars more than the latter?

They make less blue dials than white or black for sure but they are not hard to find at boutiques and some of the bigger ADs.

Thanks, I didn't realize it was boutique only. Makes me want it now haha. That's the reason I got the ceramic diver. I feel like these exclusives will hold value better.... haha.

Usually comes at a premium to the white and black dials. IMO, I prefer the blue dial on the 15300 to the 15400 blue.

On the waiting list, it's gorgeous and all AD in this town has ran out.
I am getting the 26320 in blue dial instead. Still one left and in y humble opinion the blue dial seems a little sharper
