15202 40th anniv. Jumbo

[thereisadog]

I'm currently looking to buy the extra thin 15202. I went to the boutique and found that I thought the tapisserie looked different than i remember from my research - larger indentations between smaller squares. The first picture is from my visit.

I've also attached another picture of a jumbo that I thought was the current version. It turns out I'm not crazy - they have different numbers of squares if you count from center to edge.

Are there two versions floating around? I much prefer the second version that more closely resembles the "grande tapisserie", even though it's not as true to the petit version of the 1972 RO.

Thanks in advance for your insight.

Yes 2 versions, AP logo is wider on the bottom pic as well.

There is a slight difference in the H and I series, very slight.

I don't recall which series the boutique watch was. Guessing the boutique had the more recent one, the I series? It would seem then that I'm vying for the H.

The bottom one is an I series. It has a wider AP logo.
However, I've since some recent I-series with a slimmer AP logo which resembles the original.
Regardless, I love my I-series jumbo

Is there somewhere that details the differences between the lettered series?
I've also seen the 15202 with the AP logo at the top of the dial rather than at 6pm. The current catalogue at the AD near me has that picture, whereas the watch they had in stock was the newer with AP logo at 6pm.

Well this makes things difficult. How am I supposed to seek out the specific watch I want...
