New ROC Silver Dial

Does anyone have pictures of this? We barely have seen pictures of this one, and they been bad pictures at that.

My dealer just bumped me to the top of the list for the new 15202. I'm debating between that and the new ROC silver dial with black sub dials. Not sure which way to go. I can pretty much get them both at a good discount (20+% I won't say the exact %).

I'm attracted to the 15202 for the thinness and the 2121 movement. Also it will probably hold value way better. But I like the way the ROC looks more, at least based off pictures on the AP website.

What do you all think?

The 15202 is iconic and if you have smaller wrist it's the watch to get. The chrono is still not in house and doesn't have the open case back which I would want.

Get both. The jumbo is an easy flip at 20% off. That's a very unusual discount.

My wrist size is fine. I can pull off the 44mm.

I'm getting the 44mm RG. So I wanted something not so crazy to wear at work/with a suit/around clients, and then the RG would be like my weekend/casual clothes watch.

Or just when I'm not in the office/around clients. So I don't really need both.

Get the old RG 44, then you have some black and silver already on the dial and don't have to mess with all that orange you seem to mention so constantly.

On second thought, if the 44rg is also part of the deal then I guess i can see how it may look like the 15202 could have some significant discount depending on how you shift the numbers around to assign discount ranges to each model...

It easier catching a leprechaun than the new RG @ 20 off or the 15202

Agree but the OP didn't mention the discount amount on the rg44
As stand alone, i think 20 on the rg can be pulled off, but on the 15202 i find it nearly impossible

This is why I said I'm not going to say the exact discount. I don't want people to focus on that, but it plays a role in my decision. Essentially the jumbo and ROC come out to the same price after the discount. Let's just say I'm getting above and beyond on both the jumbo and my RG and if I really wanted to, I could flip them and make a couple thousand profit each. But that isn't the point.

I'm kinda conflicted between the 15202 and the ROC, so I need help deciding :).

We'll just say I caught a few leprechauns.

Lack of seconds hand on the 15202 loses it for me. Plus, that panda chrono looks great. ROC gets my vote

Could be they have actually start making them yet. I don't recall seeing them in AP Novelties preview at the boutique either. Some models appears to be rare, this and also the new blue/black ROO42

I've seen the new ROC's at the NYC boutique back in March. I'm pretty sure they're out now.

As for the choice between ROC or 15202, I'd go with 15202 first.

When I went to the boutique a while back, they had other chronos but not that one. I'm wondering if maybe the 15202 is better as an all gold watch, and the chrono better in steel.
