My 15400 - Still mesmerizing

Despite some recent scratches, competition from my newer watches, my Royal Oak 15400 holds up very well, still mesmerizing, still among my favorite in the collection. Simple, classic, elegant, sparkles. Sheer beauty.

Don't agree? See for yourself. One of my best 15400 shots ever.




Have a great weekend!

Great pic! My 15400 is one of my favorites as well. It is the perfect size and the perfect blend of dressy/sporty/casual.

I love the design of this watch - the bracelet is incredibly done and the white dial - comes alive as light hits it.

YG AP 15400 might be in the cards...

For now a pic of mine and one that I tried at the AP boutique on 57th st.

I bought my 15400 last month and I have been mesmerized by it ever since. It is very hard for my other watches to get any wrist time. It is a very special piece:)

Such a great picture Ben!

It really captures everything I like about the 15400.

The light seems to bounce off the dial, the rout, and the batons in so many different ways. I love it.

Great Shot!
