Roger as most know is the King of RM and the reason I finally took the plunge last year. Thank you again for the words of wisdom.

Thank you!
Thanks for your kind words Paul. Always happy to help. I just love this brand so much. Still looking for a 4. Found a perfect one here but he won't take some trades sadly.

Thank you Mik--dial is mesmerizing indeed. Fun to just look at all of the layers underneath into the movements

Congrats mate. All beautiful and less beautiful LE-s aside, Ti is THE essential and right material for 011.

Beautiful. Congrats, and nicely done with the proper date setting. You're an example to all of us!

I've got to say, the more I've seen, it's the one watch that I feel might work better in non-gold. Even in titanium, NTPT or carbon it just pops, and the "duller" materials make it easier to see the detail in the dial and innards.

The reason I was originally drawn to Ti was it was more 'versatile' for my lifestyle. RG is going to be great, but it has a bit of a bling factor (but in a good way) to it, over I'd say a 'sporty' everyday that Ti brings to the table.

Hell let's be honest, any 011 will do just fine
