Sorry to disappoint some of you guys but after having the chance to try out the watch up close and thinking over, I have decided to pass on the Titanium Schumi. It's a stunning watch no doubt and very very well made but I am somehow bothered by the excessive "grey-ness" of the watch. This is strictly a matter of personal taste but I need something a bit more "contrasty".

The search continues... I did managed to close a deal and if all went well, you guys should see a new incoming next week. Have a great Sunday.

Do what's best for you!! Nothing wrong with that.
If the Schumi didn't sing to you right away, so be it, and there is your answer.
Good for you on the new one, advance congrats!!

It's a RM? That would be cool if it's a RM, since Ben is not a chrono fan I would guess a 35 or 55, my 2 favorite RM, and yes that would be awesome in his collection

From your posts, this sounds like the right call. If you are going to drop that kind of coin on a watch, you should be in love with it.

Looking forward to the incoming!
