Need Help Choosing

Hey Guys, I am looking between these 3 watches. Can I get some wrist shots to help me decide? Or any other input from the forum.

Thanks

I'd go with the 15500 right now. Or wait until the new chronos are inevitably released soon and then decide.

15500 if at retail.

Short term (style only, not value wise) I think the blue is great. Long term I think the white panda chrono is a better looker.

Panda Chrono for sure. My second would be the blue chrono.

I don’t have either, but really hard to beat the panda chrono. It’s stunning.

I'd get the Panda or Blue ROC depending on other whites or blues in your collection, but maybe wait to see what AP offers this year, we should know this month.

Wow that’s stunning.

Out of curiosity are these available at AD’s or is there a waitlist?

Silly question -.are discounts available on then? £26,200 is the U.K. RRP.

This model is not in stock and you should be AP client to get this, of course with any discount.

I am a fan of the panda chrono. I have the Italy special edition model. I love the dial coloring but the one downside is that sometimes in low light-- it is hard to see the hands against the lighter dial. But in terms of color combo -- it is my favorite.

Personally I prefer the Panda. Lots of hype for blue dials right now, but black/white is timeless.

I pulled an audible and ended up getting this. Found at retail so, seemed like the right play

Your own preference is what you should go for. All 3 are great references.

Personally I would go with 15500. Bigger, but my deal breaker is the lack of transparent case back on the chronographs.
