i have heard this "franck muller of the decade" phrase a few times now and cannot gather what it means really :) FM makes some incredible movements and the styling and designs has its market. have their prices dropped significantly in the preowned mkt?!
RM started out with Massa in F1 but obviously the past 2yrs have not been a coincidence: Nadal, Watson, now Blake, and Manchester City football club .. all this marketing will just make the brand more desirable for more people who 'like cool' watches and not necessarily love watchmaking.
pretty sure we can agree a lot of the rolex/AP wearers are like that (no shame in that whatsoever) and this is what drives business

What's with the $6,000 minimum service fees? What is that about and can someone please provide something in the way of substantiation of this?

no idea about the $6k figure, and not sure what service is required
would be glad to learn more about this
