Has anybody ordered a rubber strapped model of the 15202 yet? If so, please post pictures and a brief review if possible. Thanks.

I have ordered 2. 1 in rose and 1 is SS. I'll gladly add pics when I get them from sead. Ill add more when I actually have the watch in hand. No prob.

Looking forward to see your pictures. Did you order the blue strap with the stainless case model?

USPS tracking shows my watch is out for delivery today! It should be in my hands in a couple of hours. I'd like to post pictures but I don't have a camera, hell I don't even have a cell phone. I can provide my QC pictures but those aren't the best pictures. But anyway, I'll examine it closely to see if it is good enough and decide whether to buy another one or not. More than likely I will, considering the impressive pictures I've seen here.

Hello!

Sorry if this is an annoying question, but I'm looking for a high quality replica of AP Royal Oak 37-39mm. I searched around a bit and saw some nice ones for around $200-300. I thought I would spend maxmimum $500 on this watch, but of course, the lesser the better (as long as the quality and accuracy is good.)

Another question, do you think it's worth spending those extra $200 for a $500 replica instead of a $300 replica? Is it a big difference? And I've also seen some posts about ultra high quality replicas with even some genuine parts, how much would one of those cost and where would I go to find a seller?

Thanks in advance for any answers, and again, sorry for this probably annoying question, I know I could probably find the answers for this with enough searching, but I searched for quite a while and I was very confused with what I found.

After some more searching I found something about a JF 15450? As far as I understood, I contact the different trusted dealer sites (intime, puretime etc) and ask them if they have one of those in stock?

Would you say the JF 15450 is worth spending the money on? Or are there any better?

if you like it then yes. it is the best version you can get but it is 1mm too thick which is a problem for some people. seeing that you are new to the rep game I don't think this will be a problem for you.

is your wrist too small for the 15400?

Yes, my wrist is 6.3inches so yes, in my opinion, it's too small for a 41mm Royal Oak.

I am still contemplating on wether I should get a Rolex Daydate / Datejust or a Royal Oak. But if the Royal Oak 39mm reps aren't that good, then I think I will go for the rolex.

I searched around for rolex reps, and as far as I understood, TW Best and WM9 have the best daydate/datejust replicas. Is this still accurate or did those factories close down?
