Richard Mille

Twice-serviced but wearing a RM is something special

 

Dear RM aficionados,

I owned a RM005 RG but unfortunately had all the same problems, which were described in the posts in the past...

At first my leather-strap broke down and nearly at the same time the movement had it first problems - it stopped over and over again. After a service time of 5 months (without my RM) I got it back but 6 months later it had again problems with the movement - that is thought-provoking - if you were a RM it is something really special and in spite of the above mentioned problems i still love the brand and its products - but I hope the watches get more reliable!

At the end I have to say that within this time all the people from Richard Mille and at the AD´s were always very kind & corteous and tried to do everything to solve the problems....

See you

reluctant to get a RM

After reading the recent posts, I'm a bit concerned that if I buy a RM I'll be disappointed. It seems typical to have to send evena new RM to be serviced sometimes multiple times, and even if it doesn't have to be serviced, it's not likely to be very accu...

I'm leaning towards testing the waters with an entry level piece first. So, I've started looking into sizes more. I thought Panerais were big, but these watches are huge! It looks like the RM005 is the smallest one, but at 45mm it's about the size of a ty...

The Panerai 44mm does not include the lugs.....with lugs it is arounf 54mm. RM does not have lugs.....i find my RM11 to be slightly smaller feeling than a Panerai Luminor 44mm ....and a much better fit! I find my 11 wears smaller than an Offshore............

Eric, It's easy for people to tell you their story of woe. I'm not saying RMs are perfect or work like a charm everytime. However, this forum represents, maybe 1-2% of RM owners. I'm not degrading any issues that owners have had. But certainly you can fin...
