Second 15400 blue

A couple of months back I picked up a 15400OR blue dial and was really taken by the way the watch wears.






However, rose gold is not for everyday - well, not for me at least! - so I set my sights on acquiring the 15400ST, also in blue.

I was delighted to get the call from the letting me know a couple of days back that one had arrived for and it was mine if I wanted it.

Needless to say, I did and I collected it earlier this week.







I can’t say enough positive things about the attentiveness and quality of service that i have received from the HK AP boutique.

The blue dial and steel really is a great combo and I expect that this piece will get a lot of wrist time!

Thank you...as great as the 15400 is, it pales in comparison to your recent addition!
I’m hoping to have one of those arrive sometime in the early 2020s

Rest assured I waited! I’d purchased a piece for my wife (a 67651ip)from the boutique early in the year and reiterated my enthusiasm for the 15400st then.

The OR is awesome, but honestly doesn’t get a huge amount of wrist time. It’s a bit OTT for the office and my weekends consist of chasing around after a pack of kids and dogs...also not the ideal watch for that activity

In any event, both are staying and will continue to be enjoyed
