Hi I'm keen to get the non-chrono version. Mind sharing what is the accuracy of your watch's movement (a ballpark is fine)? Hard to find anything online for Glashutte :(

Is this heavier or lighter than a Rolex sports watch?

about +5s when i first got it... but not so sure now.
rolex heavier but i guess its due to the bracelet, it wears bigger than rolex as well.

snowflake sure can buy.

that's quite sh1tty but no choice. leaving with the loose feeling.
better than tight. LOL

Oookay I just checked back a few pages and realise what a dumb comparison I made..

But yeah.. the loose feeling is pretty bad too if you drive or happen to err.. flex your wrist a lot.

Strong ah strong.
One problem. One link out, too tight, put the link back in, abit loose.
Siao liao
But after one day with it, ap is ap.
Different level. The finishing is power. The bracelet is to die for.
But might be too thin for some.
Especially for ppl like me who wore divers all the time.

I can't imagine jumbo. Lagi thin

The one-half link is godsend. Prehaps you can check with your AD

just research it, it's one and half link.

how much did you paid for the 1.5 links? if you have the SS version, if you don't mind, can let me give it a try one day? if its a good fit then i will go order one

Hi, I don’t mind letting you to try but I did not attach any 1.5 link to my watch. It was my gf who was facing the same issue for her 15450. With the link attached, it is a perfect fit for her.

Purchased the steel 1.5 link for at about $350, price might differ for the 15400. Need about a week to indent at the boutique. (If they have ready stocks at their warehouse)

Hope this helps and congratulations on acquiring this fine piece.

There is no need to buy the 1.5 link. Just swap your original link to the 1.5 link at the point of purchase. :)

However, they will not swap if you have worn your watch for a few days (maybe more than 2-3 days) because they cannot swap an original link with scratches. :)

It applies to the AD also. You can get from any AD and they will ask you to go straight to swap at the AP CS if they have no 1.5 link at their store. :D

Same for the PP Nautilus and Aquanaut bracelets. They also got 1.5 link. :)
