Indeed. It's an undervalued reference IMHO. Best




Heh heh... Thanks much

It's white but the way the light reflects off of the waffle dial gives it this crazy look. There may be some coating or other material on the dial too... Not sure. Take a look at how it compares. Best

Thanks for the comparison shots. I really want to see this in person... but my wallet doesn't.

It does refract to give a silvery effect. The RG 15400 and 15300 white dials are more flat white.

I believe the 15400 is silver per AP, though often referred to as white.

Congrats! It's a great combo to have. Glad you convinced yourself two AP are ok!

Congrats Thomas, I picked up a blue dial 3 weeks back having sold my ROC in January 2014. It's my girls, favourite too. My wife has a lady oak, both hers and the 15400 are keepers

There's just something about the fit, weight, and drape to a RO. 15300 for me. Love it. I would hate to ever see it go. It's still my favorite piece after over two years.

Great to here buddy. I love how the AP logo is displayed on the 15300 and the jumbo. I thought about a 15300 but I liked the 41 mm size of this one. Be well!
