_DC_ 218 Posted October 22, 2015 Spotted this on Toro (he seems to be getting lots of new releases before anyone else recently)! It's the 37mm Royal Oak, for us puny wristed gents!!!!!!!! http://www.torobravo2015.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=1800 Looks nice, might get one along with the 15202 come pay day. Thoughts? DC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Barth 0 Posted October 22, 2015 Too bad they slapped the (bigger) 15400 AP logo on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jooost 0 Posted October 22, 2015 I like it, got the 15400 in that style (white face, SS). 37mm is too small for my wrist, but a good choice I think when you got smaller wrists. The only dislike I have with the 15450 (Rep&Gen), is that I think the bezel is a bit too big relative to the total size of the watch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, it's funny coz I always thought the bezel of the 15400 looked too thin relative to it's size, I guess it's subjective!! DC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

_DC_ 218 Posted October 22, 2015 The only real question is, which dial colour.... or do I wait for the rose gold version on leather to come along?!? DC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DC Have a look mate : Gen Rep It's weird, the gap between the logo and the 12 marker and between the logo and the "Audemars Piguet" signature look correct, but overall it does look a bit bigger.... not by much though. I'll live with it! DC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
George. 34 Posted October 22, 2015 Couple of minor flaws but i think it looks pretty damn good. Tried a gen on recently, fell in love with it. I've been hoping something like this would come along (with a halfway decent looking movement!!) The only real question is, which dial colour.... or do I wait for the rose gold version on leather to come along?!? DC Same feeling here, thinking grey or white... both look phresh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Robin195959 2 Posted October 22, 2015 I'm not an AP expert but it looks good to me. Is the Gen 37mm ? More my size. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DC You've had it if I'm not mistaken ? Must say I'm tempted by it. No I never pulled the trigger for the above reason, primarily the bezel bolts were very sketchy and no polished rehaut!! I've had the first 15400 rep and the old 15300 rep (the nice thin one)! Worth noting thing 15450 rep is very thick thanks to the decorated movement!!

sov211 0 Posted November 18, 2015 I have my new JF 15450 and it is gorgeous despite the minor inaccuracies - which on the wrist fade into insignificance. Everything about this watch is beautiful: the light play on the tapisserie, the light reflection on case and band, the smooth sweep of the Miyota 9015 second hand, even the slight whirr of the rotor as it works. The watch is well balanced, the case size and thickness on my smallish wrist is fine, the finish of all parts is excellent including the bezel screws. A very good rep of a beautiful watch.

sov211 0 Posted November 20, 2015 I'd like to post photos but have no idea how to add them here. The 15450 with the Miyota 9015 has been keeping excellent time - beauty and brains! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrgoodlife 0 Posted November 28, 2015 this rep looks more like a Tf than a JF production . i like the smaller ros but this one is too fat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lolo1972sg 0 Posted November 29, 2015 Looks like not a lot of folks have bought the 15450. A few pictures of the rep (borrowed pics): Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
