Both great. I don't like chrono as i think it clutters the dial - one of the greatest thing on the Royal Oak. So Jumbo for me.

I would choose the ROC being a hair larger and having the Chrono function is useful to me... Most will choose the iconic Jumbo, which I also like... I would def have it in my collection too.

Royal oak chrono vs 15202 extra thin
For me the AP Chrono, I think it will stick to the collection longer than the Jumbo, unless you have a big collection. But if the Jumbo is your grail, I think is a hell of a daily wear. It also has to be seen in the context of what you have. If you have a Daytona, then without a shadow of a doubt I would go Jumbo. So its relative.
And let's face it for Average WIS the only choice is the iconic Jumbo, but more important is the smile on your face. Good luck !

If your wrist is sub 7 inches I would go jumbo, over 7 and I would go ROC. I found the jumbo to be too small on my 7.5 wrist.

I'll second the comment about wrist size and say that if you have a smaller wrist (like under 7") then the 26320 ROCs will probably be a little too big. So one of the older 25860 or 26300's will look better. But in the end, it will depend on what you like best and what fits into your current collection. Can't really go wrong.

You need to try them both on as they fit completely different depending upon your wrist. Need to know more about your lifestyle and what you like to comment on which my be better suited. Best way is to try on...it will be very clear.

I'm not the biggest chrono fan so I'd vote 15202.

The Jumbo is king of AP in my book.
If you like a sportier / bigger timepiece that still has the AP heritage, go with the ROC. The 15202 will wear smaller with a more elegant feel but still retains that sport / dress feel. Good luck! |

I would get the Jumbo in blue, the new model which is almost exactly as the original is a perfect beauty, plus I'm not a big fan of chronos, had a few, still have a Daytona 116515, in ivory dial, and I never ever use the function, ok maybe 3-4 times a year to boil an egg, so really without a doubt the 15202...

both watches are stunning..
15202 AP RO - simple, classy and a stunning blue dial. this watch is extra thin so it makes a really nice dress watch. 26320 AP ROC - sporty yet classy and has options for black, white or blue dial as well. this watch is also dressy but can be worn casually too. dress up or down, both ways it has awesome wrist presence. im not much of a believer with wrist size because i have a 6.25" wrist and went for the ROC. |
