New addition to the collection. 26315ST. Is it too small for me?
Hello everyone, excuse the clothes in the mirror pics but wanted to hear opinions on the 26315 I just acquired. I have also attached pics of a 15300ST black dial I used to own. I feel like it looks great but also feels like it looks a little small. Maybe my mind is playing games with me since I am so used to my 41mm rolexes?
Anyhow, would appreciate any and all opinions. Would a 15510 be too big for my wrist as well? I've always wanted the green dial but never had the opportunity to try one on so unsure of how it will look... Wrist is about a 6.5" I believe. TIA.

We have the same size wrists, the 38mm fits much better.

38 fit is ok but looks small on you.
39 looks more natural on you. Imo issue with the 26315 on a larger wrist like yours is the subdials make the watch face look smaller and more cramped. Visually, I find the 15450 to look larger despite having a smaller case diameter. |

It's a RO and it fits perfect... it is suposed to be a watch on a wrist not a hockey puck...

38mm is perfect. 41 is way too big for 6.5.

Somehow on photos it looks great, but when you try 37-38 mm AP in person, they just looks tiny.
I am wearing a Sub and DJ41 in my 6.25 inch flat wrist and maybe just used to a larger watches but when was trying APs, 41 mm looked the most adequate. |

It looks fine but it shouldn't feel small on you, these are APs and they should feel substantive and fill your wrists.

Looks perfect... the 26315 is an awesome piece, and perfect for those with a smaller wrist!

I prefer to see more bracelet on a three hander but that looks fantastic for a chronograph …… much better than the larger versions IMO.

38mm fits great and I had one for a few years. Only minor issue I had was that the dial to bezel ratio was a bit off (dial can be a bit bigger, bezel a bit smaller).

Even though there is a 1mm difference in case size, there are bigger differences in the "plot to plot" and "lug width" measurements. But the 38mm does look great on your wrist which is similar to mine.

Doesn't look small at all, looks like a great fit. Offshores are great for the "bigger" look but Royal Oaks look great for a more "fitted" look.
Congrats on the new AP. Great model |

the 38mm is perfect as it feels like a 40mm which is the sweet spot for chronographs

Looks like it fits great! 38mm is a nice sweet spot with the royal oaks. If you like the "bigger" look, offshores are the way to go. If you like "fitted" royal oaks won't let you down.
Congrats and enjoy! |

Looks fine. Congratulations!
I personally prefer the 41mm RO’s, but variety makes the world go round. Beautiful watch! |
