What a nice journey into RM's world.
RM's watches and high-tech boats are living in the same world really.
Your report is fantastic to read. I've been participating to regattas on a more standard sail boat but I would really have loved using this one.
This one is clearly my favorite among all the diving RMs.
Thanks for sharing andrew.
Cheers, Mark

Gorgeous
Both in design and execution. I will admit this watch did not suit my eye initially.. however this LE has shone a completely new light on it. Excellent review Andrew, and looks like you had a great time! Best, Colton
Many thanks Colton! Not a hard watch to write about! Especially when
sailing in such a wonderful place! :) Andrew H

Its expensive and the down side of course is that leaves you
less to spend on RM watches! Thanks for reading. Andrew H
As a former Sea Scout
Your report brought back faint memories of using the hour angle of my Timex to work out position.....it was more than 40 years ago in the 8th Georgetown South Scout Troop. Thanks for an explanation of the functions of e Richard Mille RM060-01 Voiles de Sa...
Thanks Melvyn! You see, that trusty Timex might have saved your
life at some point. Such is the value of a wrist watch! Glad the article brought back some long lost childhood memories! Andrew H
Superb pics and report Andrew
It was a great event! Now, when it comes to the watch, I have to confess I'm less convinced. I find it too bulky and too busy for my taste and I much prefer the Richard Mille "On Earth" watches... Thanks Andrew! Fx
Excellent review!
Fantastic review of the watch. I am now nearly 6 months to ownership of the 39 and I have been very pleased with it; the size is also completely manageable on my modest wrist (7.25") because of the excellent design and curvature on the rear. To those of y...
Great looking watch - especially on the red strap. Thanks for the comment
and I whole heartedly agree about the size and trying it on. Andrew H
Thanks FX. I will freely admit that your thoughts were mine when I
first saw the watch. However, as I mentioned in the article, the bulk was strangely muted on the wrist, and the watch came into its own on the water. Once you realized what you were reading off the watch, the colouring of the limited edition helped identi...
Love this report Andrew!
I feel like sailing now ! RMs continue to fascinate me - uber high end, technical yet appealing to even classical design lovers like me. Don\'t know how to explain but your kind of report makes me feel this way Cheers Robin
Thanks Robin! I would suggest it is more the watch that makes you
feel that way, rather than my writing, but I appreciate the compliment! Andrew H
