Haven't sized it yet but man is this thing a beauty! Happy to step up into the AP world with the 15300.

The 39mm is perfect; it doesn't feel or look too large on my wrist, which is not something I could say about the 15400 when I first tried it on 5 years ago.

Vince_76 · 13 April 2023, 06:22 AM

Congrats! Looks good on you, and 15300 is a great reference

AEV · 13 April 2023, 06:24 AM

Congratulations! It’s beautiful.
Wear it in best of health.

~JJ · 13 April 2023, 06:31 AM

Huge congrats and it looks great! I know you are a fan of the AE and curious of how these compare over time.

messikens · 13 April 2023, 06:40 AM

Funny you should ask. I'm actually going to create a post in the non-Rolex forum. Right off the bat, I think I'll keep them both - which wasn't the thought before.

uscmatt99 · 13 April 2023, 07:15 AM

Congratulations that's an amazing pair! I'd keep both as well.

bullies · 13 April 2023, 08:38 AM

Looks great, congrats!

Atmwireless · 13 April 2023, 08:41 AM

Congratulations

7sins · 13 April 2023, 09:19 AM

Congrats!! 15300 was my first AP too, it is a beauty, love the AP at 12.

Colorado_kid · 13 April 2023, 09:31 AM

Amazing and congrats!

I’ve been looking at that same exact model. Looks stunning.

But I wonder how do AP ADs compare to Rolex? Same games? Worse or better?

We have one AD about 4 hours drive and I don’t have the capacity to “pop in” all the time to cozy up to the SA.

Congratulations.

1st amg · 14 April 2023, 08:28 PM

Nice Jesse! Thats a beauty. Did you get it from an AD or TS? These damn things are hard to locate. Wish you nothing but good things with this!

Thanks Nicholas! I went grey and actually reached out to our Trusted Sellers here; no one had a 15300 (the 41mm's are too big for me) and found it difficult to source.

1st amg · 15 April 2023, 12:06 AM

Fabulous!! Great great move. This one looks perfect on you

Congratz, nice watches

Kliminator · 15 April 2023, 06:35 AM

Congrats - the royal oak is a special one!! +1 to others on holding onto both for awhile and see if it makes sense to keep/sell.

I used to have a Tudor Black Bay and then got a Sub No Date. Found myself reaching for the sub over the black bay all the time. Ended up selling the Tudor as it didn't make sense to keep anymore for that reason.

G8RDPM · 15 April 2023, 11:18 AM

Congrats! Beautiful AP!
