Double incoming
Hello fellow members
I just got these two beauties two hours ago.
The 15202 And 15500 both look so similar yet very different.
What do you guys think?
All thoughts are appreciated.

Congrats! Did you get the call for both at once?

Take a photo of the 15202's side profile.

I'll be honest with you I only had them for about 12 hours and first impression is the 15202 is much more delicate and light on the wrist, on the other hand the 15500 feels like a modern rolex and can handle a lot more than the 15202 in the real world. Also the weight difference in significant.

That’s a strange choice for double incoming since aesthetically are similar, like buying a Sub and a SD together.

But both absolutely beautiful pieces, and suppose their heritage and wear is different. Wear in good health!

Correction: it's a more delicate piece tbh, I don't think this will take any abuse like a modern rolex would especially with that 50 meters of water resistance
