If anyone knows the Paris/London boutique prices for the models will be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

US pricing for 011-03 RG/Ti is $130K and Ti is $115K just so you have perspective to compare. Call the Paris and London Boutiques--they will be happy to give you retail pricing.

Get the 011-03, you will not regret it!

Would not be surprised as Singapore boutique has some nice pieces. Too bad the manager is as rude and condescending as he is, but seems to be his MO based upon my experience and other comments from members. With currency/VAT in Paris / London will be a better choice as it's full price at all boutiques.

Currently I am reading and understanding more on the RM brand, preparing to getting my very first RM in the next few months.



Some info on my current watches:

AP Ceramic 44mm grey dial

IWC Ceramic Big Pilot Perpetual Calendar

PP5980/1A

PP5960/1A



I've kind of narrowed down few options and would like to any possible advice from RM owners or potential owners to help me in making a clearer choice:



1) Titanium RM 011 (In almost new if not new old stock)

2) Titanium RM 011-3 (New)

3) Black NPNT RM 035-01 (In almost new if not new old stock)

4) Black NPNT RM 035-02 (New)



Also if it would affect thoughts, I would likely need to sell off my IWC and PP 5960/1A shortly after getting the RM.



Any suggestion or thoughts welcome :)



Lastly, does any one know the retail price of RM011-03 and RM035-02 in London and Paris? (PM appreciated if not convenient to reveal here)



Thanks in advance for any inputs



Cheers

35-02 Europe price is abt eur 115k after tax refund (Paris/Munich and Geneva). London should be same.
To my experience, the prices are same more or less (1-2k differencs bcs of fx) regardless of where u buy (Eur/Dubai or US does not matter).

35-02 TPT impossible right now and with RM on vacay not helping an already limited inventory. Call some european boutiques on a chance.

[jschmidtdmd]

I mean- I've found the watch- I just don't want to pay 125.....want it at 115 or lower.

Thanks a lot guys!

It will be the London or Paris boutique if I go for the 11-03 or 35-02.

RM would be a great addition to the sports side of your collection.

Awesome thread! Thank you everyone for sharing the info and amazing wrist pics. I am a total rookie with regards to RM and have taken a liking to the 11-03 in RG/Ti. I spoke to an AD in NY and they told me if I paid in full I could have it in 3 to 4 weeks. I am not ready yet to pull the trigger but wanted to gauge everyone's experience from a value retention perspective. It seems that this model is popular but will it be a mistake buying it at full list should it not stick? I saw someone mention here that they are negotiating on a different model that is 125 and trying to buy for 115 - is this piece one that might be discounted as well?

The 011-03 is relatively new, I have seen some 01-02 models at not bad discounts on chrono24, same for the 035 and 055, if saving money is important, it is for me, I would wait at least until after Basel, maybe I am wrong and the prices will not be lower, but I would surely wait, likenall new models where there is demand the prices are high, if they make enough at one point it will be available at discount from grey dealers, if not and production is limited then it might be higher on grey, like some Patek, then you can always buy from Boutique at MSRP, but I would wait and see, nothing to loose. Also playing on currency exchange and Vat refund can make a big difference, it's usually what many here do as well, 1 week in Paris could be worth it to get a much better price, and do some shopping/sightseeing

RM really doesn't present much at Basel (few high end pieces), they do release many pieces throughout the year (white 035-02 is about to be released tomorrow).

As to pricing, I have not heard of ANY AD's in the US receiving 011-03. Very hard piece to find. I have heard of an AD buying at full retail from Boutique and passing along to a good client just to make them happy. If you have an AD saying they can get you one, I'd take that with a grain of salt. Most AD's have 3-5 people waiting on them as they have received zero.

The way to get it in the US is Boutique full price. 011-03 is the hottest RM on the market. You can get some off MAYBE (with relationship) on 035-02 if you can find one. But at the end of the day 011-03 right now is a full price watch in the US.

You can call other countries and deal with VAT/currency, but still think you will have a hard time even finding one.

Good luck with the hunt and report back

Euro is currently very strong against USD making it not very attractive to buy in Europe.
