Richard Mille

Wanted to share it I miss it but became turned off by the over hype ...  

I quite like the models (like this one) with only 8 screws on the bezel rather than 12. They are thinner and rarer.

The design, the feel on the wrist etc. Especially the smaller and lighter models. But I completely understand your feelings. Fortunately it’s not something I need to worry about any more as prices have long ago taken me out of the market.

I’m not a fan of those flashy RMs but yours was rather discrete and beautiful. Best, V.

But it got a lot of attention more than I wanted and this turned me off from the brand as a whole to be honest But I agree with you it was rather discrete Now I would rather get an AKRIVIA AK-06 or a Gronefeld remontoir

But for the price, it's hard not to go with so many alternatives like those you mentioned. The RM10 in particular is quite lacking in finishing by comparison.

And I think it’s the right way forward. The Akrivia is outstanding

Maybe I’m biased ...  

I had the RM 029. Loved it, but traded it. Miss it bad. Oh well.

A lot of hype now days too, just for kicks go and take a look at the RM's that sold in the collectors market back in 2008. It is crazy.. This is a great wrist shot and love the sandblasted look. I can see why you miss it.

That ship has sailed now I’m eyeing more important stuff that’s relatively the same price Check out the akrivia ak06 if u get a chance Kicks RM in the a$$ with much much better value for the money Real value

It is in rotation on my screen saver daily. Superb watch for certain with a fascinating story of such a young watchmaker. One to watch for sure. Thank you

By pure PM, I mean one that is free from association with some sports figure or other celebrity. The RM 010 came out at a time when most RMs were pure. Today, I think every RM is impure. There are just different degrees of impurity. The least pure RMs are...
