No that's great news...I appreciate them (getting popular in venture capital community in CA), but not for me and not a buyer.

More RM's for me

Ti is rock solid, no issues whatsoever. However, I agree RG is the way to go on RM011 after having Ti

Tried RM011 RG today at an AD, didn't take any pictures. MSRP is £ 96 000 and they were willing to offer 10% discount.

Cant wait until my AP service is ready to be picked up so I can see if there are any RM's I can take photo's for you guys.
10% GST tax here in AUS kills the price competitiveness. (unless you book a flight to New Zealand and back for $600 touch the front door and come back whilst claiming 10% back on your new watch as you said it was for a business associate in NZ :wink:)

Last piece I bought in Aus they sent one of the sales people to hand deliver deliver it to me in HK ex-GST. Worked very well but I don't suppose they would do that on any old watch!

Just pick up my RM035-01 today through a local dealer, must say I was a bit hesitant at first of the NTPT material but once see it in person and try it on, it is truly amazing. Many thanks to Paul and Roger for their consultation along the way. Please excuse my iPhone snapshot quality.

Great. Congrats!!!

My favorite RM NTPT model.

I love NTPT as material, but I have problem with 011 models because NTPT is a very detailed material and due to complexity and detail of 011 dial overall watch looks pretty busy.. so I prefer it on a less detailed movement like this 035, and the my favorite 011 are the most simple ones like Titanium, Rose Gold and Ivory...

Im being treated like a nobody with my AP service and enquires about RM's. I don't feel any love and wouldn't give them my business. Id fly to Sing and walk into the dealer next to you with a t-shirt that read "I'm with him"
