I am surprised the AP group here is not wishing for a quality 15202 rep. For good reason there is a gigantic appreciation thread for the '202 at RF site.

It might just be the camera, but I think the bezel on the 15300 is thinner than the Miyota? From the angel of the pictures, it appears that the bezel and rubber are slightly thinner, maybe this could account for a couple of mm? I do agree though, it does at first glance appear thicker than 9mm. If for nothing but the new rotor.Hi, I've contacted toro: toro says "The size is exactly same as gen ." Here is the 15300 and the 15400 Miyota, same angle: the 15400 miyota is 10,5mm http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/1024x768q90/822/jnoq.jpg I've take the picture from here: http://forum.replica-watch.info/vb/showthread.php?t=174925&p=1763429&viewfull=1#post-1763429 I think the 15300 is 2-3mm more, so that the thickness of 15300 is 12-13mm! what toro says can not be true...

I wouldn´t mind a 15202, but I think the fact that it doesn´t carry a second(s) hand, is a turn off for many people. Even though it´s the closest representation of the original reference.I am surprised the AP group here is not wishing for a quality 15202 rep.

Cool! I've seen a few watchmakers like you who leave the band on. This is for easier manipulation of the watch, and less likely to get lug scratches, yes?Here is the old 15300 almost fully disassembled for repair. Repair work: 1) crown (stripped inside), 2) crown tube (pops out of the movement holder, lower right). The Xtal is a mineral at best, the dial markers and hands have a tremendous amount of contamination. Swiss clone 2824 movement.
