    If you review a very thin watch, it would be a good idea to include the thickness of the watch.

    Great video and of the many watch channels, I really enjoyed this one due to the fantastic and thorough history around the brand and time keeping in general. Glad that I subscribed and I look forward to the next video and to go other previous ones.

    Exquisitely finished to haute horology standard, credits to JLC for supplying movement to the holy trinity. Fabulous review.

  • @tar1895

    Great watch great size. The lack of a second hand is a no no for me. I get that it’s paying homage to the original which didn’t have a second hand. However without one a watch doesn’t feel alive to me.

  • @johnnyguitar6697

    The dial pattern is "tapisserie" (tapestry), not "patisserie" (pastry).
    That variation of the 15202 is the best they have done in many years. I would not, however, qualify this as a sports watch. Given its thinness and elegance, it's more a dress watch on a bracelet than an actual sports watch. Besides, between the fragility of the caliber 2121, the delicate brushed finishing, the mediocre water resistance and the astronomical cost of servicing it with AP, one would be a fool to engage in any sports activity with it.
    You are exactly right on AP's reliance on the RO line. Frankly, they should rename themselves "The Royal Oak Company", because there's nothing in the rest of their production that's worth owning over a PP, VC or A.L&S.

      Very constructive criticisms. He should take these points on board. He is a bit too young to be doing such a review. But the passion and enthusiasm from this young man is great to see!

    • @crybabyteamo

      Funny how this reminded me of one time when I was replying a forum post in a very distracted state, and I wrote patisserie, and the forum members had a good crack out of it. My opinion is that the 15202 is definitely a sports watch - albeit a thin and elegant one (as you mentioned). One can argue that the design, inspired by a diving helmet, gives off very strong sporty flare. On top of that, what's beyond arguable is that it doesn't have a leather strap that allows colour matching to shoes. That said, the 15202 is elegant enough to wear in a formal business setting in our dress code nowadays, just as one can also wear a submariner, and for the heck of it, an IWC pilot or even a Panerai Luminor.

    0:36 I would do anything to get my hands on a 1969 Seiko Quartz of Astron. That to me is my grail, maybe the Rolex Oysterquartz blue day-date in white gold being a close second.
