Wow! So happy for you! Glad to see it on your wrist after all that waiting! You’ve taken your collection to a whole new level. Are the ladies of your household warming up to it, or are they still in the PP camp?

Heya Bill...next time I come visit I’ll bring this.


The girls love it. This one well never sell. I bought a small Orange strap for the wife and kid too. I’ll get it swapped out for them when I’m able to get the next RM.

It definitely has a bigger presence, but that seems to be alleviated by the curve of the case that appears to perfectly conform to your wrist. And I’m guessing the weight is pretty light so it must be comfortable to wear. After all, Rafa plays every tennis match wearing his RM. I can’t wait to see it in person! What color are you going for next?

Great to see them dialing-in the design. From the front of the watch I did not expect it to have the thin profile.
Very wearable size

And it’s an auto movement...kind of blown away!

Congrats!!

Such an awesome watch. I saw the green one recently and was blown away by how light and incredibly well made the 67-02 is. Incredible engineering to fit all that into such a thin and lightweight profile.

Enjoy!

Actually the next watch is likely Titanium. There are some new watches that are coming out. Originally I wanted to get a 11-03 but there are some new watches that works for both me and the girls... so the new thin chrono is likely what I’m going to get next. Suppose to be a little thicker than this watch you see given the chrono module. It comes out later this summer.

That’s a darn nice watch. Materials, engineering, and craftsmanship is second to none. And they’re a lot more fun than some other stuffy brands. Nice add.

Lol. Yes... I’m currently in my fat state lol. Would it make you less dissapointed if I said the camera takes off about 20 lbs? Lol


I started dieting recently to cut some of the fat I gained over the past 2 years or so.
