Agree with Karbo.
He has successfully snatched every nice older RO in the market
The petite tapisserie resembles that of the true "jumbo" 5402.
Refined bracelet, very slim profile.

Cant go wrong with either really though, just a matter of preference.
The 15450 is more in line with todays more trendy RO though.
Has a better presence over all due to not just the 1 mm difference but the difference in thickness of the case, bracelet which is thicker and also wider, as well as bezel normally as many of the 14790s have been polished several times over the years.
Its of course not as easy to find a crisp 14790 as it is a 15450.
And then there is the different variations of the 14790. It is a rewarding hunt though!
