I have asked for a rubber strap in that blue for my 2. Think it is a really nice colour.

Hmmm, like most RM's, looks different in 'real life' shot. Still love it though and can't wait to see one

The other one intro'd at SIAR 2015 in Mexico City (http://salonaltarelojeria.com/2015/expositores-2015/) is the new 030:

I always found this model horrible, whichever the way they make it, those green bars are really not for me, but tastes…..

The 10th anniversary looks stunning! I'm curious to see what the new red tpt RM011 looks like in real life. Anyone seen one yet?

Well I will cut right to the chase. I still don't like the NTPT 11s - I find them too busy in conjunction with the complex movement. I think the NTPT works much better on the simpler 35. I don't think the blue and yellow details work for me either. Of the three most recent versions (Massa 10th, Geneva and Midnight Fire) I much prefer the latter.

11 is huge compared to my baby RM but I prefer my 002 for the moment!

Great shots and feedback Roger! I would like to see it in person as well.

I'm wondering if out side (in the sun) it would have more pop due to the 'reflection' in the NTPT flakes.

The lighting in the RM boutiques here is terrible it must be said. Zero daylight.

Nice size comparison pic Roger. I kind of like the look of that 11, however I've always liked blue accents on a watch!
I appreciate your comment regarding how busy the piece looks, their is just so much to take in with the NTPT case texture.

I have found with many people, the NTPT is a love or not material.

I think (again can't speak for 10th) it probably brings a ton of texture to the 011 and would carry more wrist presence than an all black (of course the Midnight Fire may change my mind on that).

Hope to see one soon in the sunlight.

Looks familiar - congrats again Paul on your new 11 😄
Now 'note to self' - don't sell it until next piece is on your wrist in future👍

Hi RM people,

I have been through horology experince from Tag Heuer to Chopard to PAM to AP and PP.
Now, i feel the right time to try RM.

My budget max $100k, i dont mind to buy second hand.

What is the best RM around that budget that you guys can suggest me?

Thanks

Cheers,
Mike

Simple. RM011 and with right discount will be less than your budget. You will enjoy the brand and be amazed by the watches. Try and go by an AD or Boutique and try several on as for me it's a must. After you narrow it down let the hunt begin for the best price.
