AP LBJ or RM010 WG LEMANS

[stockjock1975]

LBJ?......I think I just threw up a little bit in my mouth. I don't like his watch either! Haha!

[iLLGT2]

Saw the watch in person last night, definitely better n the flesh, however not for me… I feel it should've been a one off piece, not a 600 piece LE for the consumers/collectors.

wore my 44 rose gold and people paid tons of compliments, quite funny, since it's a production piece. I never had as many comps with any of my other pieces, its truly gorgeous.

Also saw the RG schumi too, and was stunning.

which do you find more appealing in the flesh - RG 44 or RG schumi...of course, maybe you are biased!

I agree...like that GMT hand.

[mspeed76]

not that I could wear a 48mm piece, but if they had gone with a darker shade of grey for the dial/strap it would have made a world of difference.

and why a titanium bezel when it could have been cermet

So to answer the earlier question, the RM011 is an annual calendar flyback chrono movement, and is a very liquid market if you buy well when it comes to resale. A decent complication in my view, and not at a massive premium to a non-complicated model like a 10. It's fair to say though that the 10 is a slightly more manageable size - the 11 is pretty deep front to back.

[Hamish]

Neither....not a fan of the Le Bron.
RG or Platinum novelty for me

Hrm... Maybe I am biased because I own what ill choose, but I could've have either and chose this...

With that being said, novelty 44 appeals to me more! It's much more classy/elegant yet still strikingly beautiful/sporty!! It's just perfection IMO

Schumi rose gold was certainly beautiful, however the grey on gold thing isn't really a combo I love... I guess I don't love two tone (steel/gold) and maybe this reminds me of that a tad, hrm

[ufboy73]

thanks martin - yes, i didnt meant 'biased' so much as i guess my question was a little moot since you obviously have one and not the other.

i agree with you on the tt effect

Hmm, not me. I am enthralled by the Schumi two tone look!

[kb24]

neither.. and never would i ever opt for the LBJ version which looks like a $100 street watch.. i would suggest you to look at the RG novelty 44mm

Definitely a beauty, just a lot more going on.

For me, having a grand prix/bumblebee, I want da little more casual/subdued watch for my rose gold piece… hence why I chose 44 RG

They are all awesome

[PN221]

I think they limited production to 600 instead of 1000 pcs like the Schumacher because they knew internally that the watch is ugly.

It will be interesting to see whether these watches will sell below sticker once they hit the market.

I do however like that grey rubber strap and the croc strap that comes with the watch.

[laphroaig007]

Sorry dude, none of them......

The buzz is crazy on this piece already, and they are about all sold out…

Not sure how resale down the line will be however, this is just initial info

[shnxx]

RM for sure.

BJ watch is a disgrace to the brand.

And the 10000000 BS overpriced RM LE's aren't? Get real

You contradict yourself in every thread

Some of those BS limited editions have interesting complications.

The bj watch on the other hand is using the same movement that every ROO chronograph uses, doesn't it?

Anyhow it's only a watch. Chill out man.

Just saying bro, look at all of these manufacturers now a days.. All doing out of the box stuff… diamonds everything, different materials/dials/gems etc etc etc LE's this and that

It's just life, evolution.

I'm not a fan of LBJ piece however it wasn't too bad in person

It doesn't reflect as a whole upon the brand and it's horological roots, was just trying to point that out after a few comments I saw from you.
