Thanks Hyjinx. Sadly no more but there is another model that looks kinda similar. Strap is croc from memory, but very small skin pattern. Added later.

How did you get it for that price? The closest I see is a black one for 678 https://www.ts-station.cn/goods.php?ProId=19254
I didnt do anything special... just asked if they could source it...came back with the price...does include their regular 15% off...was a great suprise. I was expecting to pay more, but they have had great prices on my last couple of orders and the best packaging of the TDs i have bought from...love the branded zipper boxes!

It really is beautiful...best subtle blend of matte/brushed finish on sides and bright finished case edges and bezel...really nice

The 15400 has a screw-down crown. The tourbillon doesn't. You wind it from the 0 (normal) position and just pull it out to set time. Hope that makes sense.

That's what we've always been led to believe. I ran a quick Google image search. I couldn't find one with a black dial but this grey one came up from Hodinkee webpages, so it must be real. At least that debunks the notion that gen AP tourby comes only in blue.

Blue was the only model till last year. Then they launched the grey dial. I believe the case for the grey dial is also a precious metal i.e. White Gold or Platinum.

But check out this year's launch. Titanium case and bracelet with Platinum Bezel and Mid Links. Also the hour gear train in grey ( like the rep [emoji12])
".... but this here is something new and special. The main cases and bracelet links of both these watches are titanium, with the bezels and the smaller middle links of the bracelets rendered in highly polished platinum. Titanium makes a lot of sense for the Royal Oak, when you think about it – true to the non-precious metal origins of the watch, lightweight, and both fun and easy to wear.
Royal Oak Tourbillon Titanium And Platinum
This is the big boy. This is the 41mm Royal Oak Tourbillon Extra-Thin that you know and love, but in brushed titanium with the polished platinum accents. In addition, the main gear train of the caliber 2924 movement has been colored grey, though we're yet to get an actual look at the movement itself."

the quickest way to know is by checking their official website [emoji6]
There you go! Bam Black Dial. [emoji3]
I kept seeing this one and had to get it too. I like the deployant clasp on the leather strap better than I thought I would.
Also, I think this watch would have been better without the word "PENDULUM" which kind of throws the balance off. You know, since it's not even actually a rep of a gen or anything...
