15300 is the better choice, for exactly the reasons outlined in the video. The seconds hand, slightly larger case makes it feel much more like a sports watch and the screw down crown. I have tried both and bought a 15300. This is why the gap in price is closing between the two, no longer 2x, more like 1.5x.

15300ST is the one to go with

15300st is better in my opinion. You just gotta have seconds hand, quick date change, and screw down crown

totally agree with it. I'm looking for 15300 with condition and believe I would get it.

I had 15300 and I can tell 15300 is one of the best balanced AP...

Thats why i bought the 15300 ST from you . I love the watch BTW.

This is a tough one! Nostalgia wise 15202 all day. But if you take that all away… I might still go with the 15202. The color matched date wheel and the petite Tapisserie are too nice. But then, the 15300 has a screw down crown and center seconds which I love. This is too difficult, give me both.

15300 all day, technically better watch, with nearly all the charm of the original.

The best royal oaks. Because of 39 mm and the achetype proportions. If i could afford a such expensive watch, both.

George, I have a question that maybe you know the answer. Why is a Royal Oak designed by Gerald Genta so much more expensive then the watches that have the Genta name on the dial?
@georgereid4286 Жыл бұрын
Hi Danny! The "Genta Designed" watches defined and created a genre. Before the AP Royal Oak, there simply was no steel, Sport/dress watch. It simply didn't exist. That being said Gerald's personal designs reflect his eclectic style and personality. The are spectacular works, especially the early creations. He was accused of thumbing his nose at the establishment at Baselworld, when he debuted a retrograde jump hour..staring Mickey Mouse! His reply..."Exactly!". I think he is a truly unappreciated. yet celebrated genius. and way ahead of his time! Thanks for letting me rant!

LOOK HERE! The 15202 JUMBO has the letters AP above the 6 , and the date wheel color is the same as the face not white. It has the 2121 movement made by JLC for AP, Patek and Vacheron but only ever used by AP. It cost twice as much as the 15300 with the word AUTOMATIC above the 6 and the WHITE date wheel and it has an in house made movement called 3120 movement and is less expensive. You can easily scratch these watches This is everything you need to know

Which should I buy? Neither. The 15500 is the one for me.
@harg8939 Жыл бұрын
Yes, 15500 is better IMO. Quick date, skeleton seconds hand, grand tapisserie, screw down crown, and new movement.
@andreahighsmith63611 ай бұрын
In my opinion 15500 and 15510 are unbalanced watches. Too much dial and too little bezel. All in all the best Royal Oak is 39 mm, as conceived by Gerald Genta.

@@andreahighsmith636as a former 15400 and current 15500 owner I agree, and I have big 42/43mm watches, but the royal oak should be 39mm.
