My pleasure, of course.

I think the 15202 feels quite a bit more relaxed and supple on the wrist. The dimensions on the 15400 are a bit chunkier. It is a heavier piece, and does add presence with its physical strength.
The 15202 on the other hand kind of flies under the radar when you have it on. It easily slides under a shirt cuff, and surely won't win any size contests. But that is the beauty of it. The proportions of the watch are "just right". I enjoy wearing larger APs, like an Offshore, but when the Jumbo is on, I never miss that extra size.
Certainly, you cannot go wrong with either. I admire your consideration of the topic. When I first started as an AP enthusiast in 2001, I went right for an Offshore. My first Royal Oak was a chronograph. And when I went with a simple model, I opted for the 15300. All great, but the Jumbo is one for each of us AP fans to discover in due time. It seemed to take me a bit longer than average, but as it is said, better late than never.
