I am loving the pics of the RM30! Congrats!

I may have an unusual RM incoming this week. Kind of unsure about it. I will have to see!

Very exciting, with you we aren't used to "crappy" incomings, more like "WOW mother of God" incomings can't wait to see it

This was an interesting decision for me. I am not much of a dress watch guy. This piece for me encapsulates everything I love about RM, but also is a watch that I can wear under a dress shirt sleeve to the office or to meetings.

Not ever a piece I felt I would own, but I am happy I took the plunge!

Major Congrats John! This piece is sick. I tried the first one on received in the Paris Boutique in October and was blown away and loved the feel and side profile. I realize it is meant to be on the dressier side but I think it could still be very versatile. Do you think they would ever make it in NTPT? If so it would be the slimmest sport watch ever created and pretty cool IMO

I'm sure you know this already...but...

Did you turn the watch upside down when changing (you need to)?

On 035 there are small metal plates that MUST be perfectly aligned (and they only stay in place if you change straps turning it over. I'd make sure both sides are correct.

I always tell people NOT to change straps unless they know how on 035.

Yes I turned it over while changing the strap, but I had to get it upright to screw it down

I'd check both sides and make sure plates are in place. You can screw it upside down--it works

Sounds good and make sure they are in the right side up or down (it does make a difference).

Cool on red as well

The best way to change the strap on the 35.....and I learned the hard way. Is to insert the strap and finesse the screw until it drops into place. You'll know when it does.
