RM doesn't have the resources Patek or Rolex have. Also, it's not impossible to get a Daytona, 5711, 15202. But it appears to be close to impossible to get an RM 11-03.

I felt this way about 2 years ago- when this was just starting. (I sold most of my pieces at that time).
Boy was I wrong- lost a lot of money, and a lot of great watches I can’t get back today.
Now, I feel they are the best positioned of any brand, with the BEST marketing. I think they know exactly what corner the’re in, and I think they know their market is completely resistant to the economy or market. 5,000 pieces a year is a lot different than 50,000.
I have a lot of the resentment and same opinions posted above, but at this point it’s part of the brand and the game.
