Titanium case RM 011 signed with label "Titanium"?
Hello RM - experts,
is there a certain reason why some RM 011 cases are signed with the label "Titanium" and some are not respectively are without a sign in the center of the case band (customs / WG...like with the sigma dials in the Rolex Daytona..)?

Thanxx for your infos and notes.
Cheers
Bernd

.......Rob, thanks for clearing that up, although cost-cutting at RM feels like an oxymoron!
