Well lets just retire a winder design

 

Why oh why does the 10/38/002/004 etc etc etc still have a winder that looks like an afterhtought?..looks like an old nut with a bit of old rubber chucked around it. Yes I admit it suits some cases quite well...looks ok on a titanium 002 for example, but then to the other extreme, I cannot believe on a Rose gold RM10 you get the same titanium coloured winder...it sticks out like I a sore thumb, looks like an afterthought, I mean at least it should be gold in colour on a gold model.

The Rm11 has a lovely flutted design winder, the Rm28 looks great too , as does the RM21etc etc even the RM29's looks great...all those winders looks like part of the design of the piece, NOT an aftermarket bit left lying around the workshp

Sorry for the slight rant but I just dont understand the thinking behind this design at all.

Interesting question...

After seeing the line up from SIHH I started wondering what was going to happen to the RM010. As a proud owner of a 10, I really like the balance of the dial better than the 29 and the 30. I understand the desire to move forward with movement designs, and...  

I don't think that if the RM10 is discontinued would be due to in-house mvmnt

As both the 29 and 30 even the 11 16 and 23 are all based on voucher movements and not in-house What about the high end ultra complicated modems are they considered in-house? They are made by R&P aren't they? Although I personally consider RM as an integr...
