Working on it. Just picked up something new but traveling and have not had a chance to open it yet. Unfortunately, not RM but it appears from some old threads that I am following in your footsteps in watches, albeit a few years behind. So, with a little understanding from the other half I am cautiously optimistic.

ATZ I think Edo - it felt more "plasticky" than ceramic but I didn't get a chance to scrutinize the papers. It was certainly an ugly variant, looked more like a swatch........

They were handed out to players, not sold, so unless one of the players posted it, unlikely to see a shot; I only saw the MCFC RM032 when one eventually came up for sale here in Asia.

Hahaha Paul - I was trying on a RG/Titanium 25 yesterday - very cool watch, but I felt the tourbillon cage was a bit hidden. They also had a RG/Ti 11 in but wouldn't sell it to me, already reserved!!! Quite frustrating! Still much prefer it to the NTPT version they also had. The bronze 28 Orange Flash is quite interesting too.

YES! Not surprised on RG/Ti...VERY hard to get here in the States as well.

Well actually impossible (as is Phantom).

Too bad they wouldn't sell.

Partially OT: does anyone know if RM sends printed catalogues on request? For a guy like me who loves their watches but would never be able to afford one it's probably the only way to learn more about them without a PC or a tablet in the hands.

I would strongly recommend the two huge RM history books. Usually available on Ebay, expensive but exquisite! The photography in both is breathtaking.

Thank you very much. Very expensive indeed but both don't ship to Italy, so money is not an issue this time :-)

Very excited to see what you have in store Roger!

Without giving it away, can you at least tell us if it's a 011 variant?

Whatever it is I know it's going to be good--can't wait to see it!!

No it's not an 11 Paul, it's a bit of a curve ball to be honest. I hope to be able to confirm it next week but just awaiting a clarification on something between the factory and the dealer.

Curve balls from Roger can be very interesting...looking forward to the mystery RM my friend

Confirmed from my AD--late December/early Jan RG/Ti RM011.

Let's see what Santa brings...and what AD discount is
