Well I didn't think anyone would guess correct, but I'm busted--2014 G-Shock incoming. But it's the nice one, I promise!!

Thanks Ben...just a few more hours and all will be known.

Very restless sleep last night...thank goodness Ryder Cup is on TV early here in the States to give me something to kill time watching.

Well thanks to Roger (conkers) enabling, I could not take it anymore. I’ve wanted a Richard Mille RM11 Massa Flyback Chrono for over a year, but every time I talked myself out of buying it. HOWEVER, I know if I drool over something for a year, it’s a must have, no matter the price. It’s exciting and fun to branch out into a new brand...albeit this one could be a VERY slippery slope!

Decided on Titanium RM11, as I love the wrist presence and the contrast of the Ti and rubber strap. The movement, case and dial are just stunning. As most know, it’s SUPER comfortable on the wrist because of the curve in the case and of course Ti is just yummy weight wise. I believe Richard Mille is the quintessential “standout of the crowd” sports watch.

Super excited to have this one as it’s an impossible watch to find BNIB in US. I lucked out and found one that literally just hit an AD yesterday that was ordered for a client, who bought another RM. With my first Richard Mille I really wanted new with fresh RM AD papers.

Enjoy the photos and will post review of watch after a week of wearing it.

Thank you all for sharing in my excitement…

Paul!

I LOVE the new RM addition.

You're right - so comfortable - such a great look.

I think the clasp is super cool too!

Enjoy the Saturday addition!!!
