Ash - get the blue and I will get the grey then we swap! I am offered the grey dial and a bit scared to say no and the chance may never be presented again!!!

I didn't enquire since I was specifically after the grey from the start, but you're probably in a pretty unique position to have the choice of those two colors- very cool problem to have! You can't go wrong either way, but there are several blue dialed watches from other manufacturers that do more for me than the blue 15500 does- however, the same cannot be said for any other grey dialed watch on the market, hence my journey to this beauty. I could not be happier

I went for the blue for my birthday, but I think I’ll get the grey as well. Maybe for Xmas |

Congrats—that’s my favorite AP (can’t argue against the beauty of the blue but I love this grey) and your pics just show everything that’s perfect about it. Hope you enjoy it every time you look at it. Cheers and wear it in good health!

Thanks man, I will! The challenge now is to resist spending another $1500 on a rubber strap, yours looks absolutely awesome on one!

15500 grey is really beautiful, definitely gives the blue strong competition for the title of nicest 15500!

I tried on both blue and grey dial at AP House in Hong Kong few months ago. I still marginally prefer the blue dial but the OP's pic of the grey dial looks fantastic.
These were the shots I took at that time.

I have blue but if I wasn’t offered blue I would have had zero regrets with the ruthenium. Looks fantastic.

Wow that is stunning brother, enjoy it! I recently went with blue, for the look which I love and for better value retention. But that grey dial is something else to be completely frank and honest with you. Nice one!

Thank you! Over a week now and still haven't stopped smiling :)
Can't recommend it enough. The 15500 (in all of its color variants) is just brilliant

Thank you for this thread! I’m trying to decide between the black and grey dials. This has helped immensely. How long was the wait for the grey? We don’t have any AP stores here in Dallas, so I’ll have to pick one up one up during my next trip.

Happy to help! If there’s one thing that’s true about wait lists, it’s that it’s entirely dependent on whether it’s an AD or boutique, whether you have a history with them, whether your contact there has any real influence over allocations, how many other customers with history have already been promised the watch, and whether your contact actually wants to help you at the end of the day... ok, that’s more than one thing. I waited around a month to confirm an allocation would be given to me, then I paid in full, and then I had the watch another month later. From reading here, many are not as fortunate. Just depends.
