I'm surprised ACME doesn't have its own thread yet. I imagine there's a large group on SF that either own or follow the brand.

The high end Chinese Shoe Thread

Good question, in fact, a friend of mine (he is probably one of the first clients of ACME) gave me the same feedback, that ACME's leather is top notch, but still a bit below YF, Aurum, and a couple other tier one makers. When I read about ACME's review from Jesper, I was also thinking if he may...

edit: when I started it was meant to be high end chinese, but now it's getting closer to every higher end not Japan or Western Europe

I'm still on this Brown Moleskin thing. I basically want a warmer Chino and Moleskins seem to fit the bill. Not that I want to veer off my Cords but more like an alternative to them.

I'll probably end up picking up a Wooly flannel and a Moleskin of some kind. Flat fronts on both.

Out of curiosity: would you say that, by judging from photos and videos, Antonio's aurum competes with Acme rtw in terms of finishing?

Hopefully owners of both can respond, but based on visuals I would say undoubtedly yes. The Aurums are impeccably finished. Right up there with some of the best shoemakers and many of the other makers I own (I don't own ACME so I can't provide a definitive response).
