Bracelet of 15202 - options for best fit

Hello, after waiting for a few months for my 15202, I’ll be picking one up in the coming weeks; as I have never seen or tried one in steel in real life (only
gold ones at the boutique), I was wondering whether the 16202 bracelet has same options of 1.5 links as 15400, as I want to make sure I’d get the best fit out of it. Does anyone care to share? Thanks!

Yes 15202 has 1.5 link. I have one installed on my bracelet and the fit is perfect.

I had the same issue, the Boutique will give you one for free if you bought the watch from them.

Awesome, yes I’ll be buying from the boutique so want to make sure I get the bracelet fit sorted while I am at it as otherwise anything AP would cost a bomb (and some) later on.

While we are on the subj., what else to ask/look for when picking up a 15202? Ive seen an AP date changing tool that some folks had a luck of getting from their boutique or AD as else the small crown and fiddly movement can make a quick date change a painful process...I’ll ask for it as well... but anything else?

Thanks guys, I am sort of both excited and a little scared to drop that much money on a watch, and it happened a LOT faster in terms of the wait time so I haven’t built up a war chest quite to the size I wanted to but I decided to bite the bullet and just buy it now as else I doubt I’ll ever get a chance next year as I have zero history with AP at this point in my life;)

For my 15300, it was $216. Imagine cost would be similar for 15202ST.

I have the 1.5 link for my '202. Most people don't need it but it is pretty easy to get one from a local dealer if you do need it.

Exactly how it happened to me,
I was expecting my watch for December 18/ Jan 19, they called me in September, was a bit low on cash but bought it anyway, now I eat boiled potatoes until I get my finances back on track...

Indeed it is an expensive watch, but sooo nice.

No regrets what so ever.

The issue is, now I reached this level of watches, what would be the next one??

This hobby is really expensive...

For the goodies, ask them what they have available, hope you’ll be lucky.
I had many ladies stuff not much of interest for me, I got a bottle of Champagne, a collector’s book, an AP cleaning cloth.

Get a RG or YG model to level up. Turn the SS as a daily and gold model as special occasion dress up.
