Yeah, you could go that way with the comparison aesthetically...
but in actuality they are opposites I think. The 27 being as much a contradiction unto itself as the Merc. A utilitarian complicated racing machine on the wrist built primarily for withstanding huge shocks where as the Enzo needs a glass like surface to drive on in order to stay in one piece!
The G55 does off roading better than any other 4x4 yet does 0-60 in 5-5 seconds gripping the road like a vice. The fuel consumption however, is the equivalent of RMs servicing costs! Actually that's a bit unfair as they have fixed a dropped smashed up RM002 recently for me quite reasonably actually.
Cars and watches....
Just as a 1940s PP 1518 might go with a vintage Bentley, which car is it being pitched against this watch exactly?..........
Pagani Zonda...
... the last model that has the carbon body Or the new Lamborghini that was just unveiled in Paris salon de l'auto. But that's still a concept. Nice game!
I dont have a clue
but I can tell you its not a zonda. the exhaust pattern is not correct. It would have had 4 pipes that almost make a circle.
Come on guys, think about the automotive equivalent......
of the watch but not necessarily the ultra lightness......!...
Perhaps Ferrari: 458 Italia or 599; Maserati. Gran Sport.
why? Both car firms started out as 'one-man' firms that became world beaters. The cars evoke feelings, more than the drive - makes you smile. Would have included Lamborghini, but the curve of the car does not seem in the Lambo world. Best guess! Andrew H
For me, a Bugati would be akin to an RM12, a 458 to perhaps....
an AP CW1? This however, much like the RM27, is a VERY different beast that like the 27, 'does what it says on the tin'!...
Lambo Reventon ,
Considering the materials used on the RM27 and the lightness , perhaps a superbike would be a better pairing !
You are wrong, and whilst I agree with you that....
the Lambo wouldn't be a good comparison, neither would a Super-bike for its lack of toughness IMO.
Drum roll please..........
I give you the one, the only, utilitarian super-car ever made.......The G55. Just as at home taking a battering n the woods, quarries, mountain tops or swamps as it is at 120 mph on the motor-way, eventually coming to rest in the city, where it turns only...
I would have never guessed that
in a million years. Cool truck though. The RM 12 reminds me a of a ducati. The RM 27 makes me think of a black enzo

For the record....
just as the rm27 is without doubt my favorite watch of all time (though admittedly I am still in the honey moon period of having only had it for a few months) if I had to choose between my Porsche Turbo, G55 and last in series wide body Bentley Azure Mull...
I will have to get a ride in one soon
I've been fortunate enough to drive an enzo on more than one occasion and it was really fun.
Nice SLS....
I work for a Mercedes dealer and managed to snag one of these for the weekend a few months back. Awesome noise!!!
Great photo
The watch looks fantastic with the light bouncing off ! Car not too bad either ;-)
be careful ...
... photographying your watch while driving at 120km/h might not be the safest thing to do. Actually, wearing a RM while driving is not safe: it diverts your attention from the road ... but sooooo enjoyable ;-)
Sick combo
What a cool combo amhh, would love to see more enzo + RM027 pics How long have you had them for? Best, H
Will we ever grow up?...
If it's true what they say about the 'oder the boys the bigger the toys' what will we be buying when we're 70?!
