Finally! AP RO 15400 Rose Gold with Domi crystal and Jacobs straps. Tons of photos!

[Phantomtech]

I was wearing the black dial today and was just blown away by it, I can't stop staring at it, it is by far the best rep I own. It looks scarily close to the gen!

I just had to share some photos I took of it in the car:

And today in the car with the white dial :

Love these, the black dial in particular. I'm now thinking a white on bracelet and a black RG on strap. The 2x AR makes a huge difference on the Royal Oak crystals, something I need to research

Damn, that white dial RG is very tempting. I already have the white SS. Just too many black faced watched

Absolutely stunning! Did you have to polish the rehaut yourself? Or did it come already polished?

The black dial on RG with the black leather strap is a stunner, same for me this is the first AP that got my attention. For this watch build what is the budget, 700$ ?

The rehaut came polished already

How would the Jacob straps be different from Eric at hamiltonleatherworks (donerix)?

What a wonderful way to start the day and weekend- the gradual unveiling of Phantomtech's masterpiece of a post. First he shows us the two beautiful and classy rose golds on leather bespoke bands - and shows us he must be a gentleman of fine tastes. Then he shows the stainless steel 15400s sitting there as well, and wait a minute now! He's got the whole set of 15400s this dude has...... and then POW! He socks us with the whole AP section of the box and now we know this is something else! Wow, the whole lot - ROs, 42mms, 44mms.......this guy is the man.....and then BAM! Wooooooo...
the entire, complete, mother-beautiful view of the entire wonderful awesome collection of a fleet of 18 beauties just sitting there and crying out to us and each saying " come on, take me out and wear me and show me and let me shine........"

What a lovely way to start the day. Thank you Mr Phantom.

Eric makes awesome straps, I have quite a few of them, but I am not sure if he carries Alligator hides, I think he does mainly Croc hide.

Alligator is a much more finer strap, perfect for dress watches, croc straps are more rough looking. Also, Alligator hide is more expensive hence the difference in price between Jacob and Eric.

Eric is an awesome guy to deal with and I will continue to use him as he is a great economical option for straps that don't need precise cuts to fit complicated endlinks, like Pams or even Hublots, and also for watches that will look good on sporty croc, but for AP or Patek that have precise endlinks and are super dressy with leather straps I will only use Jacob.

I have a Eric croc strap for one of my 15400's, the quality and finish just doesn't compare to Jacob's, here you can compare:
