Audemars Piguet Royal Oak

Do you have a preference, here ?

The Royal Oak for me. It is iconic while I don't see the Odysseus as an iconic Lange.

Same for me. The RO is way more refined.

There doesn't seem to have a match, here.

Yes, and even more important for me,
By: quattro : November 25th, 2025-21:52
the RO is so much more refined: the hands alone make me say no to the Odysseus and yes to the RO.

I’m far from an RO expert so I prefer making sure I got it right!

39 is the best size for the RO, in my opinion.

I never tried 39. Only 37, which was quite nice for my wrist.

Not bad, the 37 mm version. But the proportions are perfect with 39 mm.

Of course it depends on wrist size...
By: mdg : November 25th, 2025-22:42
...I can pull off 42mm pretty easily but prefer to max out at 40-41...39 is elegant, and proportions do matter : )

Yes, it is often said that a 39 mm RO
By: quattro : November 25th, 2025-22:48
wears a bit large on smaller wrists.

It’s nice to have a different opinion.
By: quattro : November 25th, 2025-21:55
Can you tell us why? It’s interesting !

I prefer the big date, the better legibility and the shape of the case. I also believe it is a “better” engineered watch.

All these points are perfectly valid and I fully understand your preference, even though I appreciate the more uniform design of the RO.

Thanks for sharing your views.

Yes, the thinness is largely in favor of the RO.
