39mm, steel; current-generation bracelet; current generation clasp; screw-down crown; AP caliber 3120; this is the Royal Oak you have been awaiting for everyday use. The 15300 is all of the above AND features the old Stern Freres galvanized blue dial that was known for its scarcity before AP took production in-house in 2012. This is the most desirable version of a discontinued watch, so get it while you can. Best, Tim
Stunning piece! Tim, I need to thank you for your 15450 review a while back, it really helped me decided to finally pull the trigger getting a yellow gold 15450, and it is the perfect size for me. My wrist is a little smaller than yours. I really appreciate your videos.
The 15450 is a sensation. Not only is it the best-kept secret in the current RO model line, but it's the most durable everyday RO due to the smaller total rubber seal surface area. And the 41mm 15400 wears with ridiculous seating issues on most wrists below 16cm. Best, Tim
@@the1916companywatchreviews Tim, I recently picked up a 15450 with a blue dial and I am absolutely in love with it. I do worry it is not as robust in the water as my submariner. Is it okay to wash it as well as take it into the pool?
I've been trying to understand the difference of the last 2 digits, the .02 .01 and .03 models. Does anyone care to explain? (I thought it maybe the color but it seems more subtle ?) I have a .02 and love, and was surprised they have discontinued this classic !
It is that. I miss the 39mm auto. The Jumbo is wonderful, but the late-production 15300s with screw-down, meatier bracelet, and AP caliber were all-the-time watches, and the 15202 is a bit fragile. Best, Tim
I surprisingly only waited 5 months for the 15400 boutique blue. Just get your name on the list and you’ll be surprised. Message me if you want my boutique dealer.

What was Govberg selling this watch for?

The AP logo at 12 o'clock has changed over the years.
Perfection!
The best royal oak after the 15202. Next 15450, 15400, 15500 has different analogies, proportion of the first model.
Do you still have any of these for sale ? I’m looking for an AP 15300 blue dial .
I have one
Gorgeous!

WatchBox Reviews the 15300 would definitely be my choice! You won’t have any trouble selling it!
My grail watch but I probably have better luck finding a 15450
True, but don't give up. With time, almost any watch dream becomes possible.

When did you purchase yours?
Im waiting for one from my AD. Already paid upfront and Ive been waiting since Jan 2018.
Chip Wong I believe I put a down payment in February. Received the watch in July. I was shocked when I got the text from my dealer.
City of Gentlemen how much did you full pay? Thanks!!
Retail price?
