Richard Mille - My thoughts in general

My thoughts in general

Dreaming of an RM and consciously deciding to pursue an RM present two very different images; while I find this LE in NTPT very sleek and attractive, would I be able to make it my 'only' RM for years? Tough to say!

I suppose that is the dilemma of a watch brand which evolves by building off-of its prior achievements; and us as the consumer being faced with the decision of 'when' to dip our toes in the water. Do we stand on the sideline waiting to see what comes next?

Is this colour pattern perfect, or will something come out later that will bring regret?

Enough philosophical questions though. This RM11 is gorgeous as a standalone, and the NTPT is exotic, but not overly loud and looks great in your photos Mark.

I hope to be able to handle an NTPT piece this weekend (yellow storm i believe), perhaps if my AD has it in stock I can give a better opinion.

Thank you for sharing, it looks great on your wrist!

Quick try of the RM011 Black Night

By: Mark in Paris : December 9th, 2015-08:44

I could handle this quite recent version of the RM011 (100 pieces limited edition) lately and it looked very good: very light, nice looking, modern and very technical... The wearing experience of RM watches is quite a unique feeling, especially when made ...

One thing that I noticed with RM...

is that you don't want only one but could get several. Like, to me, the Nautilus line. It is not a watch you'll see much out there so you'll have this little piece of hi-tech material and complicated movement only for yourself. Considering the issue of "w...

Richard Mille watch designs are always a double edged sword for me...

By: MTF : December 11th, 2015-23:09

Mark, I always find RM designs challenging as they incorporate highly desirable features with ones that I dislike. Pros: Lightweight material science. Black discreet appearance. Hint of red highlights. Interesting adjustable winding efficiency. Cons: Dist...

I think that when it comes to non-traditional watches

It depends a lot on how you feel about the design. It is more difficult to like a verydifferent and modern design than another classical one. It is usually more a "you like it or you don't" with independents. You've listed what makes people want a RM and ...

Beautiful

How do you find the larger case of the 11 on the wrist compared to the 35? I have recently handles a 29 and thought it was amazing but the look of the 11 is quite appealing but curious to know how it wears as I have not yet had the opportunity to handle o...

Well, Keks, this is all the difficulty to choose a RM

By: Mark in Paris : January 5th, 2016-06:00

They can be at the right size or very big ones but, they remain very appealing and very comfortable whatever you pick. Hence, to go straight to the point, the RM011 is a fantastic RM (comfy, light, technique, look, material...) but it is quite big for sur...
