Richard Mille RM005's are great - but comfortable are all RM
Hi Jen,
good decision 
I used to have 2x a RM005 (rose gold / white gold) and I was always very satisfied ... a Richard Mille will not let you go and as usual today, all that is not officially available anymore is experiencing an increase in value or the desire grows. So it is with the RM005, which are currently very, very sought after in the market. I've heard that more often in the last few months.
I'm not a fan of discussions about price increases, but with the RM005 you're not doing anything wrong. When I sold my RM005, I only got half of the prices called today ... and I think just because of this limited availability on the market, along with the Richard Mille heritage effect, prices will continue to rise.
Cheers
Bernd
RM005.. are they collectible?
i have a rare opportunity to buy a pre own RM005 RG in mint condition unpolished full set very late model just before the end of production. Funny how I now find the older smaller RM case looks so romantic and original aka those 002s are so irresistible. ...

that is what goes trough my mind now for a few years, are they collectible??
It is a very young brand, so therefore no real pedigree. I like their regatta timer RM 60 Voiles de St Barth, very fresh and summerish, but a whopping price, other brands offer you a tourbillon for that... Had one in the hands once in Monaco, seems very v...
I’m no expert on Richard Mille
But I tried one one some time ago in Kuala Lumpur and was stunned by how comfortable it wears. I’m however intrigued that this RM005 exists with “pink” jewels at 4 and 6 o’clock on the dial side but also with transparent jewels. I wonder why this differen...
Interesting.. I too am very interested to find out too
Some comes with the the ruby some don’t.. why? anyone can kindly chime in and solve the mystery? Thank you so much in advance! Jen
No worries...
... that's simply because of the continuous ongoing development of the timepieces at Richard Mille ... in every respect ... just as with the dials from other manufacturers ...
True.
In fact the movement is also used in RM010 and RM016 but skeletonise. The 005 is not really an’transparent’ watch like the later ie 010 and 016.
I found this online..
Apparently those that comes with the ruby between the 4-5 o’clock are the early models. Those without are post movement upgrades. Ecstatically I think those with the ruby looks more special.. 😬
Ah ok, thanks for that information
But maybe the post movement upgrades make the watch more reliable, hence they upgraded it. Or was it merely for esthetic reasons.
