26300 Variants
Hello All!
So Im back in the hunt for a 26300 (39 mm RO), but am now seen a bunch of variants. I'm seeing a black dial kasparov, obviously the white/red panda, the all white, a blue, a brown-ish one. Does anyone know a good resource for all the different ones out there? There are definitely some deals to be had! Thanks! |

I usually look at chrono24 to see whats out there. My vote is for the white one but I am biased

These are pretty much all 26300s... there are some limited to 50, 30 Ahmed Seddiqi & Sons editions but not that you can find them easily... speaking of 39mm ROC there is also gold 25960 references on bracelet and 26022 references on strap...

This is awesome. I have always wondered how many variations were there for 39mm ROC - thank you again.

Besides Chrono24, Essential Watches has a pretty extensive list.

I had a chance to see the blue dial with the orange hands version last weekend and I really fell in love with the watch. However, I guess it will be hard to source a clean version. It does not seem like there are too many out there, other than the brown dial version.

Amazing piece! Wear it in good health! Do you think this could be a future collectible from AP? I was able to see one here in Dubai last week and I liked everything about the watch. |

I think for wrist size under 7 inches, the proportion of 39mm ROC just works better. It wears like a 15202 but thicker and along with the chronograph... sportier. It is also a nice alternative away from the more common Rolex pieces that my uncle and cousins all own :-) Be well there my friend. |

I’ve owned the 26320 in white and never could get used to the heft on my wrist although I absolutely loved the dial color. I sold it. I don’t always want to be reminded I have the watch on. That’s why I love my Rolex.
I’ve never tried the 39mm on, but wonder if it’ll feel better on the wrist. In pictures I’m not as enamored with the dial options on the 26300. Not sure if that would change if I saw one in person. I’m most drawn to the dark blue. Anyone owned both with some insight? I have a 7” wrist. |
