Richard Mille all the way. It's got plenty of character. Though I prefer the RM011.

I haven't got any RM at the moment, could I be educated what's the difference for RM10 & RM11? I notice it is a big price difference between the two. Which RM has a better resale value in the long run??

AP has got it all wrong in this particular variation. So much for hublot bashing as I think after seeing such dreadful and horrific design elements and use of materials they will be having the last laugh.

I probably will settle for a RG millenary 4101 and more classic RG ROO's after this.

x2 or Schumacher LE.

If you had to have one of those two, grab the RM11 instead.

Let us know what you decide.

I find the Novelty really beautiful, if it was a choice it would be mine but I must admit I quite like the LBJ so I'll have to choose it over the Lemans.

RM011 a better bet than the 10 IMHO although I do like this version of the 10.

RM. The LBJ is joke of a watch. Horrible and tacky. IMHO. Sorry AP but check your strategy.

How can they leave out the AP logo for LBJ really is puzzling.. Rather sad about the lack of AP logo..

This is first thing I noticed... and there is lot of place for it...the Audemars Piguet writing also looks displaced... like some cheap replica...

I vote for RM in this case...

LeBron I think actually looks O.K.. IMO it looks quite horrid in that pic you've posted but it's definitely a nice piece.

I think its got its own appeal. Very different in terms of colour schematics compared to other offshores...

I think its nice in its own way.

I personally quite like it

I would say neither also. If forced to choose, maybe the RM.
