It might just be an optical illusion, not a 100% sure though. Still a very nice piece!
I hear you.

Then time for a new 15202

Definitely the 15202 is an amazing piece. Can't wait for my 5402 to come back from service in mid-August.

Sorry to bump an old thread. Could one of you folks, kindly tell me the lug to lug, or more accurately, integrated link to link measurement on the 15300? And what is the measurement of the flat surface encompassed by the angled link from end to end?

My 14060 sub measures 47.5 mm from lug to lug and it has a more or less flat caseback and barely fits on my 5.75" wrist without overhanging the top of my wrist without looking goofy. The 44mm luminor measures 52 mm lug to lug, and barely overhangs the top of the wrist but this is disguised with a fat chunky strap. Granted the 15300 integrated lug/link is angled slightly down slopes, right? So I might be able to pull this off?

Nearest AD is in another state, and really hard for me to try one on.

Thanks guys...

These are getting harder to come buy, wish I had pulled the trigger on one of the minty white dials a few months back.

Here are a couple of old pics, before I sold all my watches (prior watches), I have a couple of new ones as you can see in my signature:





You can see the size, it wears larger than 39mm would suggest.
