15305 vs 15407

[yehiashawki]

Lucky enough to decide between these 2 magnificent pieces,
We've had this debate before but this time with actual wrist pics.
Looking for opinions regarding which piece looks better,
Much appreciated

Something about the proportions and that gold balance bridge on the 15407 gives it the upper edge. 15047 for my vote.

Both excellent. The 15305 looks to be a better fit and I am guessing the price is better too. Win Win for you.

Something about the fit of different royal oak cases gives me a different look for each reference.
For example, I'm lucky enough to own several iterations of the 15202 which i feel are an absolute slam dunk perfect fit. Equal to the 5711 on my 17cm wrist.
The 41mm royal oak perpetual calendar and chrono also fit very well..

The 41mm skeleton seems a bit wide from 9-3 if that makes any sense.. The 39mm has a smaller case and arguably doesn't show off the open working like the 41 which is exaggerated because the gold bridge reflects the light well off the rest of the black polished surfaces.
Its really even so thats why I'm leaving it up to the forum to decide ,
PS consider price about equal.

Go with what you love and not what the forum says brother

15407. That gold balance bridge FTW!

[locutus49]

I like the top one.

Better watch: 15407
Better fit: 15305

As for looks, I would go with 15305. Looks definitely better on your wrist.

15305 would be my choice if I were lucky enough to be able to be in a position to choose!!

Interesting, although the gold balance looks cool on the 407, the 305 looks cleaner and more balanced symmetrically.
Also agree 39mm seems to fit better (for me as well).

15305

Most seem to vote for the 407. In a comparison of the 41mm 15400/15500 vs the 39mm 15202 most seem to gravitate towards the jumbo. Is it the case size or just that the larger dial gives the skeleton more "room" to be seen?

i think its the dial itself. i prefer the dial on the 15407 more because of the gold balance bridge and because the dial seems to have more color

Just don’t like the gold balance bridge. Makes the dial look unbalanced.

Any side by side pics of the case backs? People always complain the movement is too small for a 41mm case in the 15400. How are the proportions there? With the attention to detail in the skeleton movement I would want perfect proportions everywhere.

The 15305 looks better on your wrist IMO.

[benlee]

Size wise 15305OR suits better.

[Mike Jab]

15407or

[Fat_ninja]

Buy both

[masterserg]

I prefer the 407. Both are great.

No doubt 15407
