Thinking about a Ti AP music edition…

I really like this watch, but I’m unsure of the size I owned the Royal Oak offshore chronograph in 43 mm and I thought that it was just a pinch too big. I’m leaning towards the 37 mm in this variant. Does anybody have any experience between the two sizes? I’d love to know your thoughts.

I have a small wrist, so I purchased the 37 mm(ceramic version), which fits like a glove.

As a comparison, any Rolex 41mm and bigger is too big for my wrist.

The 37mm might look a tad too small on your wrist, but in the end, it is just personal taste.

Tried it on. It's indeed more sized for the larger audience definitely not the same vibe as a regular offshore.

Did you have to wait long for your 37 mm ceramic watch?

Even this 43mm black version which is visually smaller than the ss one looks pretty big on a 6'8 250lbs basketball player... You will hardly get a chance to try both at the same time but with any wrist bellow 7.6 I will go for the 37mm version speaking of this model...

Kronos88, can you share some wristshots of your ceramic 37?

It took me 2/3 months. I went to try one weekend and than my SA had to fight for the allocation, which took another 2 weeks.

I have both. It’s almost comical to put the two next to each other. I have a 6 inch wrist so the 37 is really perfect and with the titanium case it weighs nothing on the wrist. The 43 has more presence on the wrist and in your face. If you were doing it as an everyday watch, I would go for the 37.

Nice one!

Great demonstration, Topher.
I’m not sure what OP’s wrist size is, but I like how you make the case for a daily wear for the 37.

One thing to realize is the two models come with different straps. The 37mm straps may or may not be to your liking. I didn't care for them.

I've been keeping an eye on these , There's been A couple of these sold in 37mm close to retail on Moda. The lume is crazy on these. I read on Internet "All the music edition watches had been allocated" from what boutique told potential buyers, obviously don't quote me. My SA told me they are allocating these to people in music industry or like famous DJs etc. Normal people won't get one unless you are a whale.

Not sure if this is entirely true. I am definitely not a famous DJ and I do not work in the music industry.

Pretty sure I am not a whale also, I had purchased a 15550 before the ROO Music Edition 37mm, nothing else.

If you look in the mirror and see some extra weight maybe that’s the whale he is talking about.

I've seen posts of the Daytona on your wrist. Go for the 37mm. It will fit a lot like the Daytona.

Watch game is Definitely YMMV. It's amazing that you managed to get one. Wear in good health!

I think it was 42K I got it mid 2023 summer time. They are now 50k on chrono so I’m guessing you can pick them up a little over retail on the Grey

I got it for the wifey but I wear it also I’m in the club business

That’s kind of what I was thinking too, the intrigue for me is the strap on the 37 i think it’s cool!

That ceramic music edition is hell of a watch... and it looks great on men wrists... much better than 43 or 44 look on most of them...

Interesting comparison. The 37mm is actually bigger than the Daytona lug to lug anyway.

Cool cool thanks for posting this photo. Interesting to see this 37mm wears the same slightly bigger than the panda. I'll be in the market for the ceramic one once prices come down a bit more.
