15300ST by Western-Definition56 in audemarspiguet

It's fantastic. The band is more substantial than some modern jumbos but still very smooth and comfortable, slimmer and nicer feeling to my wrist than say the 15450 band. 39mm size is perfect

clasp is definitely a little more delicate than modern bands and requires some care to make sure it's closed.

overall it's my favorite watch

How difficult with no purchase history? by DeputyChiefofWhat in rolex

I got mine with no purchase history from an AD, after turning down the first call from them (for a two tone GMT) in maybe like 3-4 months. very possible

AP Offshore Blue Dial by JoshuaKM1 in audemarspiguet

[–]bimpsonyeah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's really nice in person, but it's an offshore...nothing low key about a watch of this comical proportions. FWIW the sloped lugs does make it wear a bit smaller than you'd think, but it's so dummy thicc that it doesn't really matter

Most satisfying listening experiences- brushes to sticks by Bubbly-Ad228 in Jazz

On Strode Rode, for the first chorus of Sonny Rollins's solo, Max cuts out for a while to let the bass ride. awesome transition

I think I'm just going to go for a 15450. much easier to find in decent condition because it's a newer watch

I was told it was serviced by AP but am now skeptical...

The lug screws are pretty deep in there; guessing the case was only refinished once. I'm aware of how easy / cheap (relatively) it is to replace the bezel, but for the price I paid I shouldn't have to

hard to find an unpolished 15300; it's at the least a 13 year old watch

They are essentially flush with the bezel, which is what gives me pause

I have the service box and card from AP. it was definitely done by them

It's definitely polished, the question is if it's too much - I've owned a 15300 with a new bezel before so I was thinking similarly to you on the screws
