Looks amazing, halfcarrot!

To the fellow that likes to criticize the size of watches people choose to wear... are you insecure about something?

The 450 fits you perfectly as I see the case extends to near the width of your wrist. Btw, i was also torn between the 15450 and 16315 and decided to keep them both. One for formal attire and one for a daily.

Congrats on the RO addition. It's spot on, my friend. Spot on!

oh wow congrats!

I am on the exact same list for that piece at the MBS boutique! Seeing you get it hopefully means that I am at least 1 spot closer? *fingers always crossed*

I like its compact size so much so that 40mm Rolex seems too big already. I prefer the bracelet-y feel of the 37, its nonchalance and the fine craftsmanship. Would love to have the 38mm chrono as well one day.

Has the 15450 been in the mkt since 2012? Will it follow its older brother 15400 to be discontinued and succeeded by 15500 (15550 for 37mm)?

Lovely pick up. I’m looking at these - May I ask: does the dial look small due to it being smaller sized yet the bezel not being any different? I.e. do the proportions look ok?

I don’t know what to add here. It’s really quite a stunning piece. Congratulations.

Similar but a touch larger and higher. I'm torn between the clean dial and visual interest of the roc.

I really like this piece. I have small wrists .. I wonder if this piece would fit 6.25” wrists well. I think those are the size of yours. The piece doesn’t at all look too big. It fits perfectly.

My wrist is 6.25 inches so the pics in the 2 posts above will show you how it looks on mine
