Review - AP Royal Oak 15400

Hey guys and gals,

Over the past few weeks, I’ve managed to spend some solid time with this watch, and over that time, I feel like I've got a pretty good idea on the good, and the not so good!
If you are a fan of macro images, and would like to see some crispy macro footage of this stunner, check out the video below.
This is one watch in particular that came out amazing under the macro.

Enjoy, and I hope that you have a great new year

Thanks for the excellent, thorough review. I really don't know if I will ever get to see one of these in real life. What a pity! Having seen countless photos and reviews, I would agree that it leans more to being a luxury watch. Great to see your take on the watch and the details of case, bracelet and movement. I was actually surprised at the price. Although it is a lot for a stainless steel watch, I was thinking it would be more.
Cheers,
Carl

One of the most impressive watches I've seen in a review. I was playing this at my favorite coffee shop this AM and several of my mates were duly impressed.

Great review. I’ve seen some of your others as well. The macros are incredible. You are very talented!
The 15400 is beautiful. I owned the white dial version but sold it because the white dial tends to wash out the overall look of the watch. Also, it’s a big watch and I now think the 15300 is better proportioned.
Thanks for these reviews and keep them coming in 2019 please!

This is a watch I used to really not like at all but for whatever reason lately I am starting to like it more and more.
