Nice shot Paul! I appreciate the irony of your post given that F1 and Richard Mille are two of the most complicated names in their respective worlds

That being said, not much would be better than watching F1 with a lovely Richard Mille on the wrist!

Icon10 15,000th Post

For my 15,000 post it had to be RM...

December is around the corner--wish it would hurry up as I told Santa (aka my AD) I've been a VERY good boy

RM011-03 is a stunner:

They did just enough to make it exciting without losing the classic lines. A solid rework IMO. Can't wait til some members start posting these.

No rush paul

I have been trying to find a 6701 at a boutique all year and finally found one to try. Rather elegant and understated (in RM terms), I was really charmed by this. Do these appeal to other RM owners or do you think ultra-thin models clash with the general design ethos of the brand?

While I prefer the sportier models, 11, 55, 35 this one looks great as well!

I think it stands for "Winding", meaning that the crown is in winding position.

It's nice and if you like it buy it, though I prefer the 035 and 055 models it is nice, I imagine that it looses a ton on resale, I would try to get a used one, even if you need to wait...
