Keeping my RM010 or swap it for a RM011 ?

Hi guys, First of all you have some wonderful RM here !!!!!!!! I have a RM010 RG but I am hesitating to swap it for a RM011 RG (+$). I am hesitating because I feel that the RM010 is a keeper ... (one of the first "simple RM") On the other hand I like the ... 

first of all welcome to the RM forum

I've owned 3 RM10s in all metals , I started with RG version then I drastically upgraded to the RM004 (THE RM chrono to have) but unfortunately I had to let go of it later and instead got a WG version which I ended up changing for the final one my keeper ... 

Depends on what are your preferences

Like what Riddler said above, the RM011 is much thicker and larger on the wrist than the RM010. So if you don\'t mind the extra thickness (and it really is thick coming from an ex-RM011 owner), then by all means I would get the RM011. If you haven\'t trie... 

Only you know the answer to this one I am afraid!

And while we can, and are delighted to give our collective two cents, this is your decision. If you really love your RM010, and would hate to see it go, then the RM011 would have to wait. On the other hand, if you rather like the RM011 and feel that the a... 

Contrary to the others

fastback1967 Usually, our members do a preamble about making your own choices, what your heart desires, blah blah blah I realise that when people come to our fora (Welcome, by the way), they really need advice rather than the psychoanalyst throwback of "W... 

Tough decision - I tend to RM 011

I followed this thread from its beginning and was uncertain about giving a feedback...but in the course of this thread I wanted to say I switched from an RM005 (2x) to the RM011 and I was in the same position as the threadstarter - all Richard Mille watch...  

Thanks to everyone - My 2 cts on RM Purists

I will think about it ..... As you say it is some $$$ .. but the RM are so damn beautiful. My 2 cents : I own few watches ( Omega, Rolex, AP and RM). The AP community is great (thumbs up) but it is wonderful how Mr Richard Mille managed successfully to ma... 

Great question!! maybe start a thread with it in HoMe area??

I love your question, I think it would be interesting to start as its own thread. I would say that Uhrwek is just too limited in its design range.... So they're not si versatile and appealing to such a broad audience as RMs are, also different product pla... 

100% agree with Riddler

One of first RM's motto was " a racing machine on your wrist". It depends on what you are looking for: something to show off to some friends, so go for RM 011................................ but if you want a real RM, these are the 2 specs to look for: to... 

..all RM watches are beautiful...

To cut a long story short - not everybody can afford a Richard Mille watch and if you decide on one..could happen, you not could buy another one..Who'd have thought it? I am an absolute fan of chronographs and therefore I saved my money to buy a RM 011...... 

If you know the differences between....

a modular and integrated chrono, no matter what i/we say.

Oh, a connoisseur of haute horology...

 
 By: monaco68 : March 17th, 2015-14:32
& yes - I know the differences and I know even the price differences, especially RM-related, dear Purist. Please do not mistake my review as criticism - I only wanted to suggest, that someone who wears a RM 011 not automatically wants to show-off... L... 

you have the right to reply and criticize ;-)

I just think this reference does not show the 100% RM's philosophy.
