Richard Mille RM011 RG

Recommended Posts

haydenchoo

After a long wait, my Richard Mille 011 in RG finally came through via the courier today. Ordered it a while back from watchinternational.

 

A little bit of background:

I've been a fan of Richard Milles for the longest time. Personally own a bunch of APs, and for RMs, a 052 and a silver 011. It was pretty hard to source around for a RM in RG colour, took a few dead ends and many dealers and emails later, I finally came across one in RG that was still in stock and ready to go.

 

In terms of the watch, here are some photos. I chose not to add any filters, as I feel it provides the best representation of how the watches look like. Photos are taken via my Note 2 at a cafe.

The face of the watch has some differences with the original. Upon a closer look you can see that the skeletal design is off from the gen in terms of colour and design. Nevertheless, one must bear in mind that RM watches are very difficult to replicate. The date indicators are also positioned a little higher up that the gen. In my opinion, the watch still looks like a RM from a distance which is okay. With that said, I dont mind these shortcomings on the rep too much, since the repped skeleton looks intricate on its own already.

Strap wise, its just a simple rubber strap. Exactly the same as my silver rm011. Not much to say here, except it feels comfortable.

Here are a few side views where o feel the repped skeletal design really shines and is an intricate piece of horology on its own here. But hey thats just my opinion.

 

Heres a compariaon with my other RM watches

Nice watch.

Nice pics (well most of them...............!)

I like RMs ( I have an RM005-FM non-chrono) which gets a lot of admiring glances

I would buy more (funds permitting).

 

Spread the love - feel the love -- embrace RM's !!!!!

Welcome to the RM club hahaha

 

This particular version is a RM 011 Felipe Massa in Rose Gold. Many trusted dealers carry it but just not in a RG colour anymore. If you're looking for RG in particular u can ask WI. If other colors fit the bill for u, most dealers carry them readily and in stock. Cheers.

He may have a little trouble with that.... There is a very important word beneath his avatar....

Just ask him over on the dark side. He's alive and well over there.
