Best AP for a Skinny Wrist?

Wow, I just searched the MSTR Ambassador S, an odd amalgam of AP and Hublot, kind of like the illegitimate love child of both brands

Just how much bigger is this 15400 compared to a rolex sub? I thought they are about the same size.

To be honest the sub fits just fine, I am happy with it, does that mean I can wear the 15400?

I've worn the rose gold one with a leather strap for 2 years now pretty much every day, still going strong.

Because of its design, the 41mm AP15400 wears so much larger than your typical 6-digit 40mm Sub. The 15400 "wing-like lugs" spills over my 7-inch wrist, he he. See picture above, post #17. Thus I'm ordering the 37mm 15450, hoping it will wear like a 40mm Sub.

Hey guys, I emailed loco and she said that she has the silver dial for the 15450 if you're interested in that. Maybe ask for the gray?

In order of replication-
15400> 15450> 15202 (Miyota). 15202 quartz has a fantasy dial.

Who's doing the 15300 and where would it slot?

JF is releasing a new/ updated RO model later this year as per watchbus.net. I'm guessing it's the 15450 getting a long overdue update. More of a hope than guess.

I have a 6.5" too. Go for the 15450, fits really well. Gen is 9.8mm and the rep is only 10.8mm. Thickness barely noticeable on the wrist.

Of course I'm sure. Doesn't benefit me in anyway for BS. See for yourself.

WatchArchive has managed to thin down the JF 15450 to ~9.8mm.

Thank you. BTW, I was not trying to suggest you were lying. I am glad it is thinner than what they say on their websites, as I am seriously considering this one. 1mm is no big deal.
