Incoming!!

I didn't dwell too long on this one, only 30 out there and selling out very quickly so needed to move fast!

It is the RM055 Bubba Watson Asia Edition - hopefully my golf will improve wearing this!

I wouldn't count on that golf thing, but the watch looks great. Congrats.

And you got the color reference that I suggested. Great minds think alike.

You have to wear it on your right arm so you can set the time left handed like bubba.

Awesome watch man! :thumbup:

Thanks guys. Although I couldn't compare it side by side with the US-only Red Drive and White Drive models, I could compare it to the Asia White/Blue and White/Red models and the white felt really feminine I have to say.

I also compared it to the RM030 Asia Edition (same black/gold combo) but I preferred the incredibly simple and even more transparent case of this one.
