RO, 15400 or V5 Diver?


Blackv12

Recommended Posts

Both are exceptional watches. Got the AP Royal Oak 15400 from Ryan at Intime (BP Maker version) and the AP Diver V5 from Toro. Love and wear them both. If the APRO is a fantastic watch the overall feel, touch and gen-likeness of the Diver is still superior - its outstanding, looks, movement, working of the stem and crown etc.. The rubber strap of the Diver is very comfortable but sometimes I would like to change it. Have not found a steel bracelet for it yet and that will be another 130 or more and than also wanted a hornback too (was told the AProos don´t fit the Diver) and yet more cost. Lume is not outstanding but longlasting, readable all night on both.

The 15400 is perfect on the bracelet it comes with and the steel bracelet is fantastic, don´t want to change anything there, so put this into consideration. Also the 15400 can be worn in all situations/ occasions, sporty or dressy and concealable below the sleeve,  the Diver at least with rubberstrap cannot.

 

Sooner or later You need both:) Here are some pics to compare, well this got pic-heavy:

and for finals maybe You get the Diver as it´s a superrep and consider this inexpensive but great Hublot - Quartz

Hublot Classic Fusion Chronograph Racing Grey (from Kuvarsit TD on other forum) with a fantastic double-deployant

bracelet (big and small links adjustable by screw) and NO ticking second hand at all (except if You use the chrono)
