Royal Oak 15000ST
Hello
Does someone here maybe happen to have this bit smaller 33mm version of Royal Oak. I have quite small wrist so I have been thinking lately about getting one. But then again 33mm sounds REALLY small so I would love to see some wrist shots from it or hear some opinions. Normally I think something like 37mm is the most working size for me. Thanks |

33mm is probably too small, try a 36/37mm 14790ST which can be had for slightly more than the 15000ST.

 I think for a man 33mm is nowadays too small. 36mm AP is perfect. My 36mm:  I'd say they wear as an 38mm other brand watch, due to the integrated lugs.

I would try a 15450ST 37mm. All the newest updates in a size that will still have a nice, modern presence on your wrist.

Hey Toni,
Looks like we are in the same predicament. I too have a small wrist and looking to acquire a royal oak. I tried on the 15400 and the lugs just hangover my wrist and the space between just does not look right. But it is a awesome looking watch. |

How about the Special Edition 36mm Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 15189S? It costs considerably less than it's larger cousins and yet is still large enough for a modern man's watch. I would miss the metal bracelet though...

As a point of reference, I have 6.5 inch wrist and my Rolex Air King which is 34 mm wears just a touch small. Although I suspect that an AP would wear larger than the Rolex.

 Checking out a 14790ST may also be an alternative route.
