AP Royal Oak 15300ST

[sportee]

thanks for the effort to write, really appreciate it.

I had got myself a black dial one. Previously I was serving in the navy. So everytime when I look into the gun turret of the a gun, it's always dark (black). So I just go with the inspiration of Gerald genta and chose a black dial...

I own the white face, it's very nice. Actually, I was like you, contemplating a black or white dial. I just do not know why I didn't consider blue in the 1st place, though there are others saying blue is "AP's colour".

In any case, I chose white was because I always felt white dial watches present it as a vintage model. I intend to pass it down as a heirloom, so I have the idea of keeping this watch when it becomes vintage. Moreover, I have too many black dial watches, such as Sub, SD and GMT. However, if you are someone whom like sporty watch, the black dial is more suitable. In fact, if you want to change 15300 into a "leather strap" model, the black dial matches very well with black strap. In fact, I always like the black strap with red stitches. However, AP 15300 is NOT able to be changed into leather strap as there is no SS lugs and SS AP buckle. I have seen someone from overseas was able to convert it, by plating the RG lugs and RG AP buckle into WG, so as to match the SS. I find that's a waste, but you never know. If I struck rich one day, I may do so!

In any case, see whether you have the opportunity to try out AP 15300 white and black dial, choose the one you like most. But I tell you, it's very hard to find 2 pieces in 1 shop. It's always either one. So grab it if you can find! 25% is not a bad deal, though I can't tell you what's my discounts!

You are most welcome. In such forum, it is supposedly to share info and tips. Anyway hope u got your black dial soon. You will love it. AP RO is indeed very beautiful. A different type of class and quality as compared to Rolex.

It will NOT Damage your watch.

Thanks for the AP bands, but it's a aftermarket ones, not from AP. I was told if my AP watch is fixed with non-AP lugs, if it's damaged, they won't acknowledge the servicing even it's within the warranty. Anyway, thanks for sharing.

They are EXACTLY the same as OEM. The way they are built it is impossible to damage the case. There is no pressure to the case or screws. If the tollerance is off by even 1mm it will not work but ours are perfect.

Here are some pictures we just took today. Please let us know if we can help in any way.





Thank you.

Best,

How do i get the straps changed for my 15300 if i purchase the strap from you. Don't want to visit shops that may potentially add some scratches to my watch. Thanks

screwdrivers for the screws at the lugs?

If you have a gold 15300 then just at the strap, if you have a steel version then you need the conversion kit and it would be at the strap and lugs. Thank you.
