It seem like you already made up your mind with reducing your collection and transition towards a PM RO. I would do it. What about the 15202 in YG with blue or the gold dial? Or is it the complication that you're going after?

It is something that I would consider carefully, sacrifices will need to be made because that's what makes them grails but I would lean towards making the trade.

It’s definitely a grail piece. Between that and the DDII, the PM side of the collection would be taken care of.

I like the presence of the 41mm on the wrist.

Agree with VICI on the above. For the 41mm, you have to make sure you wrist can accommodate the curvature of the bracelet. My wrist "barely" made the cut for my 41mm AP Blue ROC. Keep us posted.

Not sure if curvature of the bracelet is correct. I meant the lugs of the RO has that bend. I'm struggling here to describe, can anyone chimes in?

I think you are referencing to the part of the case that angles and integrates with the bracelet. You would need to have the wrist to accommodate that.

Exactly. Thanks for clarifying. Just want the OP to be aware of how it’ll wear.

Would you consider trading any other pieces from your collection? I think a combo of a ROO/RO/ROC is an absolute trifecta - one I am striving for, at least. I'd consider moving the DD2 another piece/ plus cash for the PM ROC.

My salesperson told me that the the Ruthenium dial that I bought is probably the last one they're ever going to receive at that boutique. I don't know if they were implying that it was being discontinued or that they just weren't getting any more orders in (which I find hard to believe since it's a large boutique) so take that with a grain of salt but if that happens, it will be very difficult to reacquire given its short production run.
