Going to the weekend with a classy icon.

Still my favorite watch design (although challenged lately by the Octo Finissimo ...).




Best,

You’ve captured the deep blue beauty of the dial nicely.

Looks great on your wrist.

That’s great to know. I have this one too, but had never had a chance to try previous models.

What do you think about the idea of putting a navy blue leather strap on this one instead of the bracelet? I really like the gold ROC with blue dial and leather strap. So I wonder if this steel piece would also look good?

A blue leather strap would look great on this watch.

To my knowledge AP is not selling any straps for the models with bracelets. The straps from the gold models would not fit without a specific set of end links ....which again AP is not selling. The only aftermarket straps that I am aware of are from Liger ... 

Interesting, looks like AP has taken PP’s strategy then, unfortunately.

A number of years ago I was able to purchase an [expensive] AP leather strap for my 15300, which was put on by the AD at the time.

Many thanks!

On bracelet, still unique and identifiable, all these 50 years later. Glad you love it so!
