Thanks for info Roger... if cermet is finished like AP one it will be amazing...

So they continue with 011 with 11-06...

And when you say in house, it means APRP? And dimensions wise is it like 011 or slimmer/smaller? sorry if it is lot of questions due to embargo :)

conkers · 16 May 2020, 10:31 AM

I think genuinely in house. Don’t have dimensions sorry but looks similar to 11 in the photos.

I am a big fan of that piece. Unfortunately too big for my wrist... Congratulations.

Thanks. How big is your wrist?

watchucallit · 24 May 2020, 04:37 AM

6.5 inches. I have an AP concept GMT and that is a little big but feels very comfortable. I tried on the RM world time when I was in BOston and saw one in the boutique. It also felt very comfortable. Came close to buying that one

Yes I am afraid this one would not work I agree. Mine is 7.25” and wraps the wrist perfectly so I can just about carry it off. The standard world timer I imagine will be fine as you suggest.

I should have purchased it (world timer) ... Actually had an offer to purchase one grey for less than MSRP.. stupid me

I suspect you would be able to get another at a nice price. RM is a two-speed market, tonneau and non-tonneau.

You can absolutely get one under retail- or bundle it at retail with another super popular piece. The people you work with will do that.

Hey all, apologies if this is a dumb question, but does anyone know if it's realistic to get a 010, 029, or 030 in Ti from a boutique? There are some pretty good deals out there in the secondary market and I'm tempted to pull the trigger, but I'd prefer to buy from a boutique if I don't get laughed out the door for asking.

10 and 29 yes, but with a short wait.

30 no

Thank you! I have a very tiny wrist but it never stopped me from wearing big watches.

My watch is back from service. Spent 4 months exactly at the service center

When did you drop it off? I dropped mine off for service in February and have not heard anything. RM service seems to basically be a black hole where nobody knows anything, nobody has access to any contacts at service center, and nobody can help other than telling you its 6-12 months wait due to Covid situation

I dropped it at the end of feb so approximately the same time. We have a service center here in Dubai and thats were the service was done.

I was quoted 8-10 months when I dropped it off, but I sent an inquiry through the rm site in march (because i thought the corona virus was going to slow things down) and got a reply saying it’ll be second week of july. Thankfully the estimate was off. I hope you are reunited with your watch soon.

I though based on your post profile you’re from Los Angeles. I sent a message on the rm website. Hope to hear something back!

curious, how to buy a strap? I went to RM Hong Kong to buy a strap for my RM005FM. I have a 5.9 inch so I insisted on S size. I was told M is ready and S is a 6 month wait. I waited after 6 months, was told RM no longer producing S size? I asked whether rubber or velcro I will take S but RM told me either M or nothing. I went to RM Singapore, same situation. I never knew so hard to get a strap.

Btw, a friend told me RM 11-03 would be too big for my wrist so assume its a lot bigger than the Rm005

thanks and Conkers (Roger) big fan of your IG account! :)

Im not sure if its just a marketing thing or not but all boutiques dont carry straps now for some reason. You have to bring your watch in and order a strap for it, and no one knows when itll arrive. I just bought a strap a couple of days ago from a guy on instagram and it just arrived today he has a wide variety of colors/materials. Talk to him im sure he’ll hook you up. His instagram is (@strap.king) just tell him I sent you my insta is (@a3med_)

That's because people have been buying straps and flipping them. :(

Same happened with Patek. And that's why you can't get a green rubber strap for your 5167A.

This is why we can't have nice things.
