Description
THB Factory Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 15400 Black Ceramic
THB Factory sets the current standard for full-ceramic Royal Oak replicas by achieving a remarkable 9.6mm case thickness and 134.6g overall weight, closely mirroring genuine physical specifications.
Powered by Calibre 3120 Super Clone
The THBF edition utilizes the advanced Calibre 3120 Super Clone, an architecture built from the ground up rather than relying on a decorated Miyota base. This direct-drive movement eliminates the rotor wobble and noise associated with older decorative deck modules. It features a genuine gear train arrangement, a beautifully engraved rotor, and standard regulation capabilities, ensuring long-term mechanical stability.
Standard Clone 3120 calibration: typically 卤10��15 s/day. Regulation by a professional horologist can often improve this variance to tighter tolerances.
- �� Power Reserve: Approximately 36 hours
- �� Complications: Instant date jump at midnight and stop-seconds (hacking)
- �� Winding Direction: Bidirectional
Technical Specifications
Machined entirely from black ceramic, the 41mm case achieves an ultra-thin 9.6mm profile. The finishing strictly follows the alternating brushed flat surfaces and mirror-polished chamfers characteristic of the Royal Oak.
The black dial features the signature raised square pattern with excellent depth. Printing sharpness on the logo and minute track is highly refined, with white gold-plated hands and indices.
The iconic octagonal bezel is fully ceramic, featuring precise vertical brushing. It is secured by eight recessed, white gold-plated hexagonal screws that align perfectly with the case geometry.
The bracelet links and connecting pins are carefully machined to prevent stiffness. It secures via a titanium double deployant clasp with accurate AP engraving depth.
Why THB Factory for This Reference?
Many collectors ask: ��Why not APSF or ZF?��
While APSF and ZF dominate the stainless steel Royal Oak market, machining a full ceramic case and bracelet to an ultra-thin 9.6mm specification requires specialized tooling. THB Factory specifically targeted this ��Phantom�� build, utilizing solid zirconium oxide rather than PVD-coated steel. This ensures that any micro-abrasions will not reveal a silver steel base underneath, maintaining the stealth aesthetic permanently.
Full Disclosure: Solid ceramic is inherently brittle. A significant drop onto a hard surface like tile can shatter the case lugs or bracelet links, unlike steel which merely dents.

Collector Q&A
Q: Is the case PVD coated steel or actual ceramic?
A: It is machined from solid zirconium oxide ceramic. Scratches will not reveal steel underneath, as the material is consistently black throughout its entire composition.
Q: How does the weight compare to a stainless steel 15400?
A: At precisely 134.6 grams, this THB ceramic model is noticeably lighter than a solid stainless steel Royal Oak (which typically weighs around 165-170g), offering a distinct, lighter wearing experience.
Q: Are the bezel screws also made of ceramic?
A: No, adhering to Royal Oak design principles, the hexagonal bezel screws are metallic (white gold-plated steel) to provide necessary structural integrity and visual contrast against the black ceramic bezel.
Q: What is the primary vulnerability of this specific THB factory model?
A: While highly scratch-resistant, solid ceramic is brittle. A significant drop onto a hard surface like tile or concrete can shatter the case lugs or bracelet links, which are difficult and expensive to replace compared to steel.
