AP 15450 opportunity
Hello, I’ve the opportunity to acquire a pre owned , serviced by AP, 15450. My wrists are small. I’ve no dealer close, but have been desiring an AP FOR years...are there any known issues with this piece... it’s been serviced and comes with a two year warranty ... buying from trusted seller on this site, so I’ve little concerns about the transaction. I’m a Rolex person mostly.... since my wrists are small, 6.25 inches and I don’t flip watches often, I want an AP for me. I’ve talked to dealers with 15400s and they, via phone, believe a 15400 will be too large. I tend to agree based on reviews of royal oaks wearing larger than their competition. I adore the design, the white dial... the simplicity, movement, heritage, and feel a 37mm would suit me. I own a 5196 37mm from patek and it’s perfectly sized. I also wear a deep blue and it fits, barely. The best fitting watch I own , for me, is a new Pepsi gmt at 40mm without the ugly Rolex lugs on other models.
Are there inherent issues , or were there, with the 15450 crown. I’ve searched the forums and found contradictory information—some claim adjusting the date caused issues and others had no issues . If AP serviced the piece in 2017, would AP HAVE addressed any known issues. I’d like to think yes. The seller has a receipt of service, but the paperwork doesn’t list exactly what was done other than checkups , cleaning, oilng, and calibration. I appreciate your time and really have desired a royal oak for years. I’ve simply found them too large on many wrist photos, wearers whose wrists appear larger than mine when I search their other pics with Daytona’s, sea dwellers and so on. While the piece would be covered, I’d rather just know the issues upfront. The rumor millls and message boards haven’t been kind to AP. Please take no offense. I just am new to AP. |
