Both are killer pieces. But if I MUST choose, I'd get the 50-03 only because I have more personal connection to the motor sport world the watch's association with McLaren entails. But both are amazing pieces. Hope to see a wrist shot someday!

From the teasers I expected something groundbreaking... at the end it is 11-03 with TPT / red quartz case and nice touches on pushers/crown...

So it's basically a RM two tone

I really like it!

Edition of 500- with preference going to those who purchase the car.

Too much colors for my taste... Original 1103 NTPT look way better than this...

I’m a fan of both the 11 & the 35 but I really don’t like this new McLaren version at all. In this photo the orange NTPT looks grubby, it’s just not an attractive looking watch.

It looks like a good watch for a Cincinnati Bengals fan. And nobody else.

i feel they try to do too much with colors sometimes. And instead of coming off as bold, they are garish

I am going very plain vanilla with my next RM. no fancy materials or colours. Back a little to their roots 15 years ago.

Hi All. First time posting on this thread but I wanted to share my collection with everyone. I first purchased an RM 11-02 back in 2015 and that started my love for the brand.

About a year ago, I sold that watch to my father (keeping it in the family) to purchase the 61-01. I think the uniqueness of the yellow and green is second to none and am very happy with the swap.

As has been discussed on this thread before, it has become very difficult to try and source new watches from ADs so I contacted my AD in January and told him I want to purchase another RM. He said that he only has one in his inventory, the RM 30 Black Dash, and does not know when he was getting another watch in stock. I’m a personal friend of his so I know this was not a sales tactic. I was hesitant at first to buy the Black Dash but after wearing it for two months I am very happy with the purchase. As much as I loved the RM 11 case, there is something about the RM 30 case that makes me enjoy the 30 more than the 11.

Exactly. Within two days of the Watch arriving. Easy to fix but annoying and not the first time this has happened!

Wow, unbelievable. No excuse lacking QC with a so small production (not to mention the price of the watches...)

Don't worry Fabio, it is only my 5th RM to require fixing so I am used to it!
