Wow, you never cease to amaze us! Congratulations.

What are the two indicators at the top for? The one on the right goes through 53?

The one on be left (which I originally thought it would be a retrograde second indicator, seems to go beyond 60 and it has a red zone...), is it a PR?

cda555 · 25 January 2017, 02:38 AM

"Congratulations" doesn't seem adequate.

thomaspp · 25 January 2017, 02:39 AM

Power reserve on the left and torque indicator on the right.

Incredible watch Roger. I particularly like the honeycomb baseplate! Gorgeous and unique

Ah, thanks for the explanation.

conkers · 25 January 2017, 04:24 AM

Thank you everyone. The honeycomb is very interesting for sure and I need to take some photos of the back but unfortunately it has been raining in NY since I arrived so can't get some good daylight shots outside yet.

jschmidtdmd · 25 January 2017, 04:35 AM

Congrats Roger!

That's an amazing pickup!

Will be curious as to your thoughts on NTPT, as I recall initially you were not wild about the material, but think it has grown on you.

Look forward to seeing it on velcro

conkers · 25 January 2017, 05:25 AM

Good point Paul. My earlier comment was mainly that I didn't think NTPT worked well with the "busier" movements like the 11 but it works better with the simpler movements.

I can't argue with that...then again the 022 could be made of anything and it would be spectacular

conkers · 25 January 2017, 05:26 AM

Velcro will need to wait until i am back in HK.

5Zigen · 25 January 2017, 06:02 AM

Stunning, congrats!

archer75 · 25 January 2017, 06:45 AM

Congrats, I hope the straps were give aways

Brilliant! You should mix the velcro straps and put red on one side and grey on the other.

Question - What's the function of the pusher on the left of the case? Cheers.

That is a quick advance for the second time zone disc.

OMG Roger what an epic incoming - a great new toy for your collection. Those Kevlar straps rock with NTPT, can't wait to see more pics when you get chance

Bravo and congrats Roger

Marciano490 · 25 January 2017, 11:58 AM

Great to meet you and congratulations again! It's an incredible watch, and suits you wonderfully; a 2 meter tall man needs a watch of similar stature!

Vaxe · 25 January 2017, 04:38 PM

Sweet, the red Velcro is awesome!

yannis · 25 January 2017, 04:56 PM

conkers · 25 January 2017, 06:56 PM

Thanks everyone. Sorry for the lack of decent shots but promise to do some over the next few days when I have a little time.

conkers · 25 January 2017, 10:54 PM

Some more pictures in natural light:

And some more including some sides shots showing that legendary wrap the wrist design that makes RM watches in my view the most comfortable watches available.

Very cool Roger, are you comfortable wearing these pieces with a suit?
