Demand in some.......
Jul 30, 2006,01:13 AM
Hi
Demand in some markets is still there....some dealers were still waiting for 005 stock for their clients....believe me i know.
I think RM has replaced the 005 with the 010 to perhaps to attract the same buyer profile of the Offshore.(my opinion again..the Offshore is the benchmark of sports watches)
I do however feel that the 005 will be sought after because of price and relatively low numbers...the size is a comfortable one in between the Offshore and the Daytona.

RM10--what does it mean for the RM 05??--your best guess please....

I predicted on this forum, shortly after the RM 10 was announced, that RM would discontinue to 05 model. Every once and a while I get it right. What does the decision to discontinue a popular model line so soon mean to existing owners of the 05, in favor ...

A few thoughts to keep in mind....

1. As far as I know, the RUMOUR that the RM005 will be discontinued is the fact that the market has pushed back on the 005. It was thought that the 005 and 010 would co-exist, but the orders for the 005 are making it uneconomic for the line to continue. H...
there are customers and there are customers

Hi Andrew, I think it bears keeping in mind that IF the 005 has been or will be discontinued due to lack of dealer orders that doesn't necessarily reflect a lack of interest from consumers, it just means that the dealers anticipate a lack of interest and/...
RM005 strap
By: Mike : July 31st, 2006-08:20
According to all the RM literature the RM005 is a true sport watch...swim, play tennis, ski etc. I get the feeling that most of the owners have not subjected their watches to anything more than a spectator sport? Otherwise, why leather straps??? Should no...
Strap
By: Mike : August 1st, 2006-01:13
I find leather straps very uncomfortable once they get all sweaty, stinky, and hard once they dry off. A composite would be more appropriate for this high tech watch, then you could even use them for water sports.
