I wanted this watch for the longest time. Just wasn't ready to get a fresh one with so many flaws in spite of it being 140 USD with Sead. I picked it up on m2m, a deal i couldn't refuse.
Except for the AP ROO Diver V7 that i own and craving a HBB FC 44mm, I'm not drawn to any larger watches. I'm comfortable with smaller watches. And hence the 15450.
15450, I really like the finishing and the sharpness on the watch. 37mm size is something I'm very comfortable with. Also its about 11mm with the deco plate(I haven't measured it).
I'm skinny wrist and all i wanted was to try the 39mm. And the "slim profile" of the watch.
So the watch is slimmer than any of the automatics, 8mm.
The only automatic watch that comes close to the slimness is Calatrava with micro rotor.
15202, to me it feels like big watch, obviously not as big as 15400, considering that I'm already comfortable to smaller ones.
I like it, but don't love it. I love the 15450, the Aquanaut, the Diver, etc.
So can't be compared. These are two different watches. With all its imperfections, 15450 suits me and my requirements. On the other hand, 15202 is sleeker, with lot of imperfections, that I'm not able to accept.
What do you think about it pal ? How does it compare to the JF 15450 ?
